Day 92 - regrets

Well I should forced my achy body to do some kind of work out yesterday because today, I have a sick little girl home from school and a millions things to try to do while Ella was napping. While Ella napped, I didn't work out, I sewed aprons for a friend who had asked me to sew her three girls aprons for Easter. Sewing can only be done while Ella is napping, or when there is someone else around to keep an eye on her. So I chose to sew instead of work out. But maybe later this evening when the kids are all in bed I'll get a chance to fit one in. That is a good idea. I think I'll try that. I'm glad we had this talk.

See you tomorrow.

Day 91 - I hurt

I just laid Ella down for a nap, and I should really do a work out. But I am so sore. Yesterday I spent the morning  building a compost bin out of pallets. It required a lot of hammering, to dismantle some pallets and then nail those pieces into place on the other pallets. So now my shoulders and arms are very sore. Also most of my leg muscles are sore from my walks, I guess I haven't been stretching good enough. My shins are really sore, muscles I guess I haven't been using in my daily work out routines using the DVD's. And on top of all of that, the living room is a mess so I'd have to clean it first before being able to do a work out. It's been snowing this morning, so we won't be going out for a walk this afternoon. Had I known it was going to snow, I would have made sure to have the kids get the living room tidied before bed.

So there, I've done my whining for the day.

 In other news, the scale read 262.4lbs at 7:30am.

See you tomorrow.

Day 90 - ten days left

Scale read 263.2lbs at 7:30am. I'm afraid it's really not going to happen...this idea of getting below 260. Oh well. nothing to do but keep on keeping on.

Went for a walk with the kids in the chariot again. same route as yesterday and was able to shave 1 minute off of the our time. However it may have been the wind pushing me home...it's pretty crazy out there right now.

Day 89 - SPRING! it's finally spring!

Scale at 7:30am 264lbs

I spent most of the day outside. It was glorious. I raked the lawn to loosen the leave and then I mowed the lawn to mulch up all the leaves left over from the fall. Now our yard looks clean and tidy. In the after noon I took the kids on a walk all around town in the chariot.  Kathryn had the day off form school so she came along. The route we took is just shy of 5km and it took us  us 49 minutes.

Now I am kinda sore... but feeling great.
