walking on sunshine (WHOA-oh!)

I’ve been feeling so upbeat lately. It’s delightful! Maybe it’s the weeklong trip to the beach we embark on this weekend! Maybe it’s the new living furniture we finally broke down and ordered. It could be the sun porch that Richard just overhauled into a fun, tiki room (we should take pics!). Or It’s the fun I’ve been having with the T-shirts and such. (see? there it is!)

I also switched up my gym routine to swimming laps and taking pilates or conditioning classes and I feel a little more toned for my trouble. No one else will notice, but I certainly do. Nice to have a little less jiggle. And to top it all off I started my shortened week last week. Nothing quite like changing a whole lot of things to feel like I’ve kicked myself out of a rut!

SO we're slamming things into the station wagon, throwing out food that'll go bad while we're gone and I swear i'm going to kill this cat because she's just milling about the house meowing, alternating with trying to escape the house any time a door is opened. We're off to the beach, WHEEEEEEEEEE.

3 - Have a great time! I love the swimming for muscle tone. The other day, I almost distracted myself mid-crawl stroke thinking about how nice my arms looked. Of course, bodies do look so much better when they're wet and in the dank "mood" lighting of the Y. (Comment this)

4 - i'm pretty bummed that I couldn't go swimming last week because i managed to lose the bottoms of my two piece swimsuit. I have a feeling the lifeguard would NOT have been amused. I need some good goggles too. I like how it uses such different muscles and you don't even know you're sweating! the last time I swam laps was probably in eighth grade. I've always enjoyed goofing around with different strokes but this has been a revelation to try the breast or side stroke and go HEY, i know how to do that! i'm not fit enough for the butterfly, that just kicks my ass. (Comment this)
