Plus-Sized Pin Up

Pilates was a little slower this morning. Luckily Juneau was more interested in staying outside. It was nice not to fight her off the mat, out of my face, etc. while concentrating on my movements/video. Unfortunately, I didn't take her out for her walk. Doing pilates in the morning moved the walk to the afternoon. Well, I laid down for an hour nap at 2pm and woke up at 4!

We finally went by the Zumba class this evening. I was afraid that I would too behind. But, not to be mean, a lot of the people were at a low-level, so I wouldn't feel uncomfortable. Watching them go through the dances were also encouraging. They kept plugging along and enjoyed every minute of it! We haven't decided if we are going to start going every week. Since hubby is already in ballet, it might be too much of a commitment for him. We'll see.

My swimsuit is agitating in the washing machine. I accidentally let it sit out for awhile, and my stupid cat (yes, one . . . and I know who it is -- shes doesn't have the sense God gave a rock!) decided to use it as her own persona litter box!! The damn thing reeked of musty cat pee!!! Arg! I put it into a hot water washing cycle. I'm considering putting it through another cycle, but I don't want to stay up so late . . .

Tomorrow will be a full week working at the rec center!! Yay!! I'm going to work on all the exercises the PT showed me. I'm pumped! And, since the tattoo has been healing for 3 weeks, I can SOAK in the whirlpool!! I'm usually pretty hot after the hard workout, so I might cool down in the lazy river before hitting the whirlpool. The lazy river has a kind of current that you can walk against.

On a more nerdy note, the rest of the Dark Ivory series came in the mail today! Of course, I sat down a finished the series before much of anything. HeeHee, I am such a nerd. Comics/graphic novels = <3

Yesterday was a graphic novel/comic book acquiring day. After getting the first volume of Hack/Slash and the first Dark Ivory comic earlier in the week, I couldn't wait to get the next copies! Our local Hastings carries serial comics now, so I got the first 3 copies of the new Birds of Prey. I ended up with the second volume of Hack/Slash, 2-3 of Dark Ivory (finishing the series), and Birds of Prey (the original series) volume 1!! *squeal*

Today I had to force myself out of bed. I didn't have any motivation to go to the gym Since I couldn't fine my iPod this morning, I said if it wasn't in the car, I wouldn't go. God has other plans. It was waiting for me in the car. Even though I didn't want to go, I think this was the best workout since I started. It feels as though I pushed myself more. Haha, I even feel MORE tired that I usually do! I really, really wish my tattoo was healed, so I could sit in the whirl pool. It is open, and it is calling me!

I've already started week 3. This week I am going to concentrate on making better choices. If I'm hungry and craving something, I can have it in moderation. If I give my body what it wants, I won't be craving in when I'm not hungry. Less chance of slippage/overeating.

I need to spend today getting laundry done. I would rather take a nap. With no job, I guess I have the afternoon open.
