Western Michigan could expect...

...6 inches of snow overnight.

Also, watching The Last 10 Pounds Bootcamp on FLN - finally a show where people just need the extra push to get them the rest of the way to their goal.

Sitting on my ass and eating won't make the economy better March 22-28

I've just had to take over the finances in our house because my husband's terrible money handling skills have us in a hole so deep that it will be a decade before we even see the light of day. Also, do you know that I don't believe in charge cards, and don't have one? But I just found out that hubs does, to the tune of $60,000. Idiot. Also, how is there a company-wide paycut while you're still working 75hrs+ per week? Because of our financial situation there is no extra money for child care - so get f'ing home sometime so that I can get a job that pays in money, and the kids actually know what their Dad looks like. Also, enjoy your trip to Vegas next month for 'work'.

Exercise - March 15 thru 21

I can't believe that it was actually 60 degrees today! I took the opportunity to go running outside, then drinks with the ladies - it was really good to get out without hubs and kids.
Here's how the week looks:

Sun - 5 mile run.

*Mon - 1 hr yoga (Inhale w/Steve Ross)

*St. Patrick's Day - 5 mile run; then 2 1/2 hrs. at Kensington walking around lake, playing on playground, and fitness trail with the 3 boys.

*Wed - Cathe Friedrich Pyramid Upper Body

*Thurs - Boy2 spent the day becoming the vomiteur - so no exercising, but lots of scrubbing, disinfecting, and herding rest of family away from Mr. Contamination

*Fri - Boy 2 still puking

*Sat - off/ is it normal for husbands to work 75+ hours/week while taking a company-wide paycut?

Exercise - March 8 thru 14, 2009

Okay, since I stopped recording my exercise weekly, the activity has been lacking. More than any other time in the last four years of my life. So, welcome back weekly exercise logs.

Also, there has been much baking going on in the house. It started with bread, then beer bread (amazing when made with a Yuengling Black & Tan), then I needed to make a cake with chocolate buttercream, and finally today a dark chocolate cake with mocha and vanilla buttercream. I don't know if it's the weather, the economy, or what that's creating this pervasive funk around the house; but cramming baked goods down my throat definitely won't make things better. So, in honor of the dark chocolate cake, here's my exercise for the week:

Sunday - Gilad's Bodies in Motion, Total Body Sculpt w/ Gilad, and 1/2 hr. yoga (went through a series from a book - yawn).

*Monday - Gilad's Bodies in Motion, Total Body Sculpt w/ Gilad

*Tuesday - Gilad's Bodies in Motion

*Wednesday - Gilad's Bodies in Motion, Total Body Sculpt w/ Gilad

*Thursday - Off

*Friday - Gilad's Bodies in Motion and Total Body Sculpt

*Saturday - Total Body Sculpt Plus VII
