I did it...

I hit my goal of 30 miles in the month of January!!

I actually did it in about two weeks because my first real workout with the Nike + was on January 14th. I am pretty excited. I am still trying to run more but that will come in time, I'm not going to kill myself!

I think I will set my February goal for 45 miles, not sure I want to set it to 60 miles yet. I'll do that in March!

I'm doing my first 5k on Mother's Day...I'd like to be able to run the whole thing :)

This is getting old....

Remember my power/heat/dryer going out here...

Well today I woke up to no heat again...UGH! I called a heating and cooling place and luckily someone was able to come over first thing this morning. It's 19 degrees today and a chance of snow all week.

Here is where my doggies were all morning...right in front of the space heater.


So repairman was able to fix it ($270 later)...the circuit board was fried. Hmmmmm that is the exact same thing that happened to my dryer! I decided to call my insurance company to see what my deductible was, unfortunately it is $1000 and my expenses haven't been that much. I swear I must have been hit by lightning or something.
My brand spanking new dryer is supposed to be delivered tomorrow. Thank you baby jesus! I am so tired of being without one for almost a month now!!! Can you believe that???
The weekend was good, didn't do much other than go out Saturday night with the girls from highschool. It's been fun reconnecting and getting together once a month.
I have some serious blog reading catching up to do!!!

I'm an ex Biker Babe

So we had some nice weather yesterday and while driving to Kyler's game (by the way, another victory 42-23) I noticed a TON of bikes out and had to *sigh*....because...

I used to own a Harley. Yup I had a Harley Davidson Sportster....it was purple and oh so shiny and pretty!!

I got my bike back in 2003. I grew up riding dirt bikes so I had an idea of what I was in for but I went ahead and took the motorcycle rider's class because by doing that and passing, I was able to just have that added to my driver's license!

Here was me on the 2nd day I had it.


Look how little the kids were, cracks me up!!



Here is me after a long ride one day. I stopped to see my mom :)


One day I was out riding with a friend of mine and he took some pictures out by the lake, this one is my favorite.

I rode in the Bikers for Babies in 2005.


I sold my bike because I wasn't riding it as much as I should have been. I never minded riding alone but it was more of a safety thing. I was always worried about everyone ELSE, not me.
Miranda told me yesterday I should buy another....who knows :)

Adios!

Boot Camp - Week #1

Class was great! I am sore from it but it's a good sore!! We did tons of lunges, squats, cardio, weights...etc, etc. We went for a full hour! Before the class the took our weight and did our measurements. They will do the measurements again at the end of the six weeks but will do our weight weekly. I got up today and didn't want to attempt running so I just did 45 minutes on the treadmill instead. No need to kill myself!!

Kyler had a home game last night and they won 38-19. Maybe that first game was a fluke since it is the only one they've lost and even then, it was only by one basket! Go Panthers!!!
