Sorry Honey it's not what you think..........

After 6weeks of night shift the Hubby is finally starting day shift (6wk rotation) Monday..Yay!  A somewhat normal routine will be a change as now I can get MY daily routine in order, when the Hubs does nights I try not to make noise and try to find more things to do outside, on day shift we do try and get out more so when the MR suggested we check out the new joint he seen downtown I was a little confused as to where he was talking about. I've been riding the bike around town and try to walk around and couldn't figure out where he was talking about.

I give you the 'New Joint'

well I can't tell you enough how tempted I was to

Laugh out loud! So instead I had to say well Dear that would be great but it's not what you think, they ''DO'' planks there. Actual on the floor horizontal  Planks along with other exercises.

 view of their Studio. Needless to say we're not going....as this is what gets served at the bar....

I just don't see the MR drinking Anything Green.

How about you, what do you drink that's Green??

M.oving On M.onday

On vacation, Again!! Yet another week scheduled though there were a hundred things planned, POOF, just like that they're gone....out the door, window, space where ever all I know is they're gone, and of course it's cold outside Sigh. Oh well not the end of the world there's always tomorrow. But I realized after the thought slashing I gave myself there is in fact another tomorrow, another day, where probably most of us decide to have do overs, a new starting point.

So who cares if I didn't do any laundry-we have PLENTY of clean clothes,

who cares if I didn't sweep the floors-the Mr is on nightshift and needs to sleep,

who cares if I didn't go to the grocery store-we have food,

is this what retirement is like?? Is this something I would like?? Hmmm Something to ponder. In the meantime let's get some movement going on, up off the ass, change into some other work out clothes and go work out!

Doing my best to stay motivated, but when your at the ER with the MIL from EARLY:AM until Late:THIRTY, then need to go get meds too, Why do we get so exhausted doing nothing, well no Zumba or Kettlebell for me tonight,  there's always tomorrow.

First FurBaby Friday

Well there are people who reads this thing!!  I was asked ''Why'' didn't I have anything on here about the FurBabies, ummm well hadn't got to that point yet but to keep the one (are there more of you out there?) reader interested here is my First FurBaby Friday post & photo:

Meet ANDI, the MR had her long before me so she's the ''Baby". You all know how it is with the FurBabies. In the beginning there was a bit of struggle between Andi, the senior female cat, Tori Ann, and me.  As in some days the struggle was real as to who was 'Head B%@#&, Main B%@#&, or The B%@#&,   

Zumba & KettleBell

All there is to say is ""  You go Girls!! ''

M.oving O.n M.onday

Moving on Monday today with Killer Kettlebell's. In my 'Re-Invention' plan to stay as active as I can I want to share this workout. These are only a 'few' of the exercises we do during class. On Monday & Thursday it's a 30 minute class after Zumba, and that class depends on how much my RA riddled shoulders can take of Kettlebell.

The K'Bell instructor Sue is starting her Springtime Challenge tonight, though I do want to loose some of the extra baggage, at the same time I really like my food nourishments. So I'll join the challenge-do my best-have fun with the girls and see what happens.

At this point I still feel like I'm in ''comeback from Hiatus'' mode 'cause frankly people I Am 60! And it's hard to get back to where I once was.....But believe me I Will!

Meatless Meal Days and the 'MR'

Breakfast this morning= scrambled eggs w/ a dab of Co-Jack cheese, Gala Apple, Almond milk w/Soy Protein powder (much needed after Kettlebell last night)

Lunch= Spag w/mushroom sauce, leftover Tortilla chips

Snacks during work if I want them= last of my English Cuc (burpless, Thank-you Jesus!), Strawberry/Bananna yorgurt, Gala Apple, left over Sesame stick & nut mix.

Tonight's Dinner= 1/2 baked potato w/tomato, pinch of co-jack cheese & sour cream, spoonful or coleslaw & cottage cheese, 1 1/2 C romaine mix w/poppy seed dressing (hope I never get drug tested this is about the only dressing I eat)and a few croutons.

I didn't have any exercise class tonight but did get some dusting done, my SIL is staying upstairs in "Motel Cline" so talked with her about the MIL/in-law stuff then turned on the TV and got this

OMG!!!

Yep, Great JUST Great!! 'MR' is at work and it didn't matter what buttons I push, nothing is happening! What's a girl too do?? Text the 'MR' of Course, I'll admit it, I sure did. After Several texts with the last few getting a bit U~G~L~Y he came home on his break and reset me (yea right) the TV.

I mean come on people the WildCats are on tonight,

BTW we won 88 to 54--yes please and Thank You.

Shew,,,,Good Night people!!

Re-Invention '101' Exercise

As I posted earlier, I'm going to do my best to keep up with the Zumba & Kettlebell classes at the gym and now that I'm D~O~N~E with the MIL/in-law stuff I can get back into a routine. Do I want to do more than these, Nope! I still have meetings going on with the Betweenathon, Race Wilderness Trace Series, FB for RWT, my Picture Lady stuff, and found out from the Kid we're in for Bourbon Chase 2016--WooHooo--so I's got plenty!!

Zumba last night though just about kick this OldLady' Butt!, even got up during the night to take a couple of these...

Work today was murder.., thank goodness for my friend and co-worker Betty, she was such a big help.  Tonight is Kettlebell and the instructor has already posted on FB about doing Burpee's tonight, W~T~F!! (sigh) so much to look forward too.

arunnersmom!

Lordy Be!! Then it happened Again!!

Yep 11" of snow!

FurBaby Andi Girl not impressed!

But neither is the MR!

Ya know though, it could be a Lot Worse! We could have the freezing rain/cold, for now there's some wind but nothing we can't handle.  Admittedly I did something that I Never thought I would/could EVER do...I called in! 

Yep Me the it don't matter what the Governor says I-got-to-go-to-work was absent...and I Liked It!! I stayed home with the FurBabies and the MR, I played the Domestic Diva, making breakfast getting some laundry done, checked in with my kiddos making sure everyone was safe and sound, helped the MR with shoveling every couple hours (only a little bit) then relaxed with TV watching.

So knowing that my world doesn't come to a stand still if I don't go to work, I wonder what would it be like to finally Retire?? Thinking I may need to make another appointment with my financial group once all this weather business gets under control.

So how has it been with all you? Weather got you stuck at home?? How are you handling it??

So this Happened!!

Yep our first for real snow of the season! Now where ' I ' come from this 3inches is no biggie really, and it wasn't heavy or mixed with ice, but in Kentucky,  O~M~G.....you would think it was 3 feet!!


Be Safe!!
