Day 4 (long day at work)

Still on track. I been packing my lunches and drink plenty of water. Tonight is my late night at work. Sometime it flies by others it drags. I have 2 appts tonight one has already been a no show. the other isn't until 7 pm. Let's hope one shows.
Last night I exercised on Ellie (elliptical) while watching old Sex in the City reruns. It makes the time go by so fast. I also did stomach and legs. Tonight is my off night. Wednesday I am going to try my hardest to get up extra early and get in a DVD workout and maybe try to do Ellie at night.

BIG news..................

I am........
going high speed!!!!!
we currently have Dial-up at home
I took the jump and signed up for high speed Internet!
The package deal with phone and Internet is such a savings
we have dial up but NEVER use it
it takes forever so why pay $15 month
instead
pay for unlimited phone and Internet for the same price
and being able to use my computer
the things i will do...
blog from home
make photo books
send pictures to friends and family
shop

Month of Meals

*sorry it's small. I will work on making it larger*
This is one great tool I use to be able to buy my groceries once a month. As you can see it's in pencil. I don't follow it to a tee I adjust things depending on how I am feeling, But I do always know that I have things in stock. I usually pull things from the freezer two nights before so they are defrosted. Since it's so small I will list the meals below:

grill cheese, BLT's, pasta and meat sauce, pizza, chicken nuggets/tots, rib eyes/fries, calizones, chicken bake, lasagna, hamburgers/fires, taco's, mac-n-cheese, sausage/porgies, pork chops/rice, prime rib/potatoes
We eat out on Thursday's and if we decide not to I will bring something home. On Tuesday's we eat left overs I work until 7.

Monty Python's SPAMalot


this show was great!
C won us tickets at an event this summer
we would have never gone otherwise
but we both had such a great time
the show started at 3pm we arrived and enjoy the atmosphere
we purchased the $3 water and $3 soda (noticed you can't take them in)
oh well, we entered the theatre and me a people watcher notice all types of people came
the dressed up, jeans & sweat shirt, young & older
it was great!!!
the show started and I wasn't sure what to expect......
We were both so impressed
the play was funny & the sense of humor was right up my ally
the sets are amazing they looked as if they were 3-d.
this was something that we would have never done but I am glad we did
oh and we went to dinner after and we were home by 7!!

Day 1,2&3

3 days on 30 day challenge. It's going well.
I have cut back on salt & sugar.
I have maintained my water intake.
I still need to work on my exercise.
my plan for the week is to workout on:
Monday PM, Wednesday AM and Friday AM
I have a hard time getting started on a workout plan
once I start I do great until something interrupts me
I will stay focused this time
