Fitness update and other things

Dec 09

Let me just say that I forgot to mention that Eric and I both went to the gym last night and worked out. I came home feeling great and wondering why I’ve put this whole weight removal thing off for so long. You might ask yourself, why weight REMOVAL. Well, here’s my thinking. weight loss implies you loose something but you might find it again. Sort of like when you loose your keys and can’t find them, eventually they turn up again. I say weight removal because I’m planning on removing the weight, never to see it again, Like when you remove a piece of furniture, burn it and know that no one else is going to see that chair. That’s what I plan with my weight removal. I’m going to remove the weight from my body and never see it again. How good will that feel…. I can’t wait until I’m to my proper weight and % body fat. I would be remiss if I didn’t say I’m a little nervous about next week. Tuesday I head for Boston and I’m not home until late Friday. I’m determined, to continue working out, even if I’m not here. I’ve also got to keep in mind that I need to watch what I eat too. Usually when I go away for business I eat high on the hog… Example, last year I had Kobe beef.. So we’ll see how I do on my own..

This year for gifts Eric and I did it a little different, he took the guy names and I took the girl names. I’m almost ready for Christmas this year. I’ve gotten Mom’s, Julie’s, Hollie’s, Beth’s and Kathy’s gifts. I’ve just about got two presents that I’m making done. I’ve gotten everyone’s gift but my grandmother. I have NO IDEA what to get her. She doesn’t really need anything per say but I should get her something. As for Eric…. well he hasn’t even started. We’re planning on getting his shopping done tomorrow because I want it all done, and wrapped before I leave for Boston.

Why? Well, I’m gone to Boston and then I get back on Friday the 16th, well Sunday the 18th we head to Washington. My mother (side note.. MOM YOU’RE THE BEST) helped to get Eric into both the Othello hospital and the 14th avenue clinic to shadow the x-ray tech so he can get more points for his applications in the spring. So we’re going to head up early and do that and then sometime, around Christmas we’ll head over to Ellensburg for the holiday. I hope we do it like last year. I love Christmas there because it’s a bunch of people. Last year mom and I brought grandma over too, which made it that much more special. I’m so glad my mom and mother-in-law get along so well that we have combined holidays all the time… I’m so lucky..
