A brief list of examples (there are many more)
1) I was very excited to bring my screaming rubber chicken (see below) to school for Show and Tell Friday. I let all my friends squeeze him so they could hear the funny noise he makes. Penny is terrified of the chicken and hides when he appears.

2) I have over 200 children's books on shelves in our office. I claim they are for the kids at work but I really like to read them.
3) I wore a barbie shirt to work for casual Friday.
4) I have a ten o'clock snack time every morning.
5) I LOVE peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Especially with chocolate milk.
6) SNOW DAYS! TODAY IS A SNOW DAY!!! I CAN'T WAIT TO PLAY WITH PENNY IN THE SNOW! Anyone want to sled ride???
What is exciting is that I did NOT find out about the snow day until 7:45. At this point, I was about 2/3 done with my hard (treadmill) workout, running my ladder repeats to Desperate Housewives Season Three. So I was almost done with my hard workout, and I had the day off. AND my awesome husband shoveled the driveway :).
The workout:
Had to use the treadmill, since the roads were very covered. It was a fun treadmill workout, you should try it.
8 miles total
1.5 mile warm-up at about 8:27 pace - I think speed 7.1
Intervals: 2 minutes hard, 1 minute easy, 3 minutes hard, 2 easy, 4 hard, 3 easy, 5 hard, 4 easy, 4 hard, 3 easy, 3 hard, 2 easy, 2 hard
Hard done at 7:03 pace, which was speed 8.5
Easy done at 8:34 pace, speed 7.0
1.5 mile cool down
I was a little afraid of going any faster because I felt like I might fall off the back.
Did some abs, and now I am done with my workouts for today! Cross your fingers my work training tonight will be canceled and that I can spend the day cleaning, writing lessons, doing laundry, and playing with Penny in the snow!
Come over if you want to sled ride!

I wish Penny was that size forever! She's so adorable!!!
ReplyDeleteYou have the day off and you're not doubling? laaaaaaame
ReplyDeletehaha, I always feel like I will fall off a treadmill. I grab at my sweat towel to do some lady-like dabbing, and that is when I seriously almost always fall.
ReplyDeleteI'm like a 5-year-old because sprinklers and disneyland still get me excited.
p.s. your encouraging comment inspired my blog post today...
Have you ever read the book All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten? If you haven't, you would love it.
ReplyDeleteI will look up that book at the library!
