Just a bunch of thinking....

So here I am again just thinking about stuff. I was going to do a entry about my bedroom and it's new transformation but this past week I received a cut in pay so along with not buying that pretty lamp from target I will be doing a bunch of nothing for a while. So just a couple of thoughts I would throw out there and stuff I was doing over the weekend.

This weekend I did some budgeting and it looks like a close race people. I guess that's one of the lesson's in life is sometimes it will be tough but there is always away to make it through. I also have been making myself go to the gym. The first time I went back ( in 2 weeks) I walked up and the place where the gyms was supposed to be was empty. I heard the music from the twilight series come on and I expecting zombies to pop out, instead some people from next door popped out from the new gym that was there. I went inside and boy was it nice. Flat screen TV everywhere and all this futuristic machines, excuse me......"top of the line equipment" were set up upstairs. When I went to use the futuristic machines I started with the elliptical. It was pretty normal and I didn't have to do any thinking. (You know what annoys the hell out of me is when the gym people put on the food network channel. It makes you so hungry when your working out, you just want to drop everything and get a big mac or some delicious chili cheese fries.. It's a conspiracy I tell you!!!Conspirrraacccyyy!!). After the elliptical I decided to use a leg machine. I went over and got on the leg press. When I was trying to adjust it to my height I kept trying to lock it in place and the F%&* thing kept sliding back. After 10 tries and a man in his 50 couldn't figure it out I gave up and moved on to the next machine the helps with your inner thighs. I won't describe what I was doing, it's much to graphic. But when I was pressing my legs together the back of the chair lifted up..."What the hell???!!" The twilight music started again and I got off that thing so quick I think I twisted my ankle a bit. Crazy and I had to get out of there quick. I ran down stairs and wanted to see what else they had. After that horrible 30 min ordeal I found something right up my alley. A lap pool with 3 LANES!!!! Yahoo jackpot!! For those of you who know me (Well, know me good) know that when I was in high school I swam on the neighborhood swim team and I was pretty good. Backstroke was my forte...I help win 1st place relay because I was ahead a full 25 yrds in the first round. I was fast man!!! Those were the good ol' days. Anyway so my new routine is Monday-swim,Tuesday and Thursday walk at memorial with Rocky and Friday hit the weights baby! Do that was an adventure. A bit funny and weird too.

On to another subject..Thanksgiving...I got this crazy idea one day when I was shopping in the grocery store. I was on a roll for my cooking record and it was getting better and better every time I make something up. This magazine that I picked up was a holiday issue and I thought instead of having someone cook this year for thanksgiving how about I make up a thanksgiving to remember and add some old tradition in with some new tradition. My family doesn't know yet but I have some great recipes that I have already been putting on my list. I have some really yummy items and I was up Sunday morning looking for some things to put on my list. I am so excited about this year's feast I wish it was thanksgiving next week. After I send out the list I will post it so that everyone will see. Anyway I hope you liked my crazy story. Shout out to my baby sis! Love ya doll and hope your kicking some butt.
