What's That Bump?

Tonight I took a shower & was just finishing putting lotion on my legs, when I felt a large bump in my calf. Uh oh...what's that? I immediately started racking my brain...what's going on (a bite, did I bump it on something...etc.)

Then I remembered...

I've been doing tons of calf exercises lately, ummmmm yeah, I'm starting to grow a little calf muscle again! Pretty sad that it never even dawned on me that I actually had a real, honest to goodness calf muscle growing, huh? I'm not even joking, I was worried!

Welcome to my world...just had to share so you can laugh at me!

So here's some inspiration calves-Vanessa Hudgens

Thanksgiving Eat-A-Thon

It's that time of year again, the holidays are just around the corner and I'm preparing for the big Thanksgiving Eat-A-Thon. I'm not the best cook, so every year we go to my sister-in-laws AND my sisters house for Thanksgiving. First stop is at 1:00 p.m. We try and eat light...YA RIGHT! By the time we get to my sisters at 5:00 p.m. we are so full but just keep eating.

I've been gearing up for the Eat-A-Thon. I came up with a plan to help me feel better about the inevitable. I've been walking every night and doing my floor excercises. I feel like I'm getting ready for a marathon!LOL! But I do have a strategy this year. I'm excercising BEFORE the big event. Losing the 5-7 lbs before the BIG day...then I'll have some room to grow and not feel as guilty.

Those of you who have to visit lots of homes too...feel free to steal my idea.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING EAT-A-THON!

Shorts, Dresses and Board Shorts YES!

It's getting to be that time of year, the sun is now shining it's been slowly warming up and my family is wanting to hit the beach. This now officially puts me in PANIC mode. Another year of swearing that I will work out early and be "beach ready" is shot. I have not worked out at all. I usually at least try to work out at home a little bit to get rid of the jiggle. Nope not even that!

So as the Fourth of July approaches, I get to try and find something that hides my body for our annual bike ride and beach trip. I've been a little excited that those really long dresses with sandals are popular this year. But that wont do for our bike ride. I guess I'll need to find some extra long shorts to hide the "special" areas.

Here's a few options for you ladies who may have run into the same procrastination problem that I have.










See it's all in how you camouflage the areas...so if your panicking too, head out and pick your self up a few of these "MUST HAVE" items!

Moving Out

Today we moved our office from the big luxury suite with a putting green inside the boss's office to the downstairs cramped, small office. We are in the Commercial Real Estate Development business...in other words, the "down size" immediately business. We have really slowed down so it's time to cut back on the luxuries. Thank goodness my position isn't considered a luxury yet.

My boss's hired some people to come and help us out, but of course me and Marsha both were hauling big boxes up and down the stairs too. I'm sooo out of shape right now, and my neck/shoulders always hurt (yes, I know I'm old!). But I couldn't believe how quick the soreness set in. At about 1:45 I went on a lunch run to Subway. I turn my head to back out of the parking spot...immediate pain, I could hardly turn my neck. Then driving along, I go to make a lane change, same thing...OUCH!

Can you imagine how bad I'm going to feel tomorrow if I'm already sore? Maybe this will kick me in the butt to start working out (hahaha). At least I can still make jokes.
