The Wrath of Bootcamp Returns

So it's only been 2 days since I've been back in the swing of things with bootcamp and already... I CAN'T WALK. I swear to you - I'm moving slower than a turtle and can't sit down or stand up.

It's mostly my thighs. They feel like they have bruises all over the place and every time I move - the pain flares up. I hope I never get old - I feel like this might be a look into the future.

I hope my thighs at least lose a few inches!

Mouse in the House

One of the things I am afraid of is mice. Ew. Yuck. I don't like them. So you can imagine my distraught when I was changing the water cooler at work and there was a dead one, stuck, stretched out and dead on a sticky trap at work. Let me just tell you - I just about lost my lunch. 4 days later - it's still haunting me that poor little rhodent. And now, I think there is a dead one in my office - I've concluded it's dead inside of my radiator because every time the heat comes on - the stench gets worse. Again. Ew and gross. Guess there are some bright sides to moving to another office building into a cube.

Bootcamp ~ Round 3

Well bootcamp round 3 began today and this time inside - thank goodness! Instead of running laps outside at a parking lot in the dark, I now get to run laps inside of a gradeschool in the bright, blaring lights while admiring artwork from the little ones on the walls.

I felt like I was going to puke today - but I did run the entire time - I didn't let myself walk... let's see if this bootcamp kicks into the weight loss!

Stay tuned for updates!

The Wednesday Before Turkey Day

I don't have much to write as it's the Wednesday before Thanksgiving and I think I'm the only living soul who is actually at work today and not at home cooking. Oh well. I'm getting my haircut tonight and I'm really excited. I"m going to cut it short for the holidays. Don't tell my cousin or my sister though - as I'm supposed to be growing it out for their weddings this Spring. I should be working on my 15 page paper about facial transplantations too - but I'm not. Oooh - the chinese we ordered for lunch just arrived.

Until next time my dear friends. And this thanksgiving - I'm thankful for all of you!

Happy Holidays?

I'd just like to comment on the fact that Omaha believes that it is December 12 and not November 12... as it's beginning to look a lot like Christmas. Everywhere you turn, people have Christmas lights on their houses, huge trees in their windows and christmas music playing on the radio!

I just have one question...

WHAT HAPPENED TO THANKSGIVING?!

Seriously - I know people are in a hurry to get things done and over with in today's society - but for heaven's sake - can you at least wait until November 23 to put up your holiday garb?

That's all I have for now. Until next time.

Another Camp Done...

Well, Adventure Bootcamp phase II is officially over. I ended it yesterday - complete with a nice pull in my lower back. So I couldn't move yesterday and I can't move today.

I also signed up for a program here at work called CU on the Scale. You get a team together a la "The Biggest Loser" and see who can lose the most. I haven't lost anything so we'll see if there are any results. I'll post them here if you're interested.

Otherwise - a weekend full of work. Our National Board is in town. Yehaw. I just love my life (even though that sounded sarcastic - I really do love my life! Hooah!)
