You say Tomato and I say Tomato

Went for a run at lunch yesterday and came back to work looking like this cutie.
 
 
Well, actually, I really looked like this woman.  Man its humid these days.

 
I went for a long run on Saturday over the new bridge to Manotick.  I found my next home.  It is nessled in the trees on the river and convenient to the bridge.  I just need to find a very rich, very, very old guy to leave me lots of money :)  I found a great park that was filled with people playing in the splash area, having bbq's and just enjoying the day.  There were also ponies and a goat who had pool noodles on his horns.  I imagine this was so he wouldn't hurt the kids but he looked very funny.  I hope the ponies didn't laugh at him.


I spent Saturday evening creating this Super Pops (I know - what an exciting social life you have Sandra!).  These super pops are for my run team for this weekends Run for Men's Cancers.  In my books, everyone is a super hero for joining the team.


Sunday was another lovely day so J and I got on our bikes and went back over the bridge to Manotick.  We watched the boats and seadoos on the river and then had lunch on a bench beside this tiny little cemetery.  There are some very old stones and I'm glad to see that they made a nice fence for it in the park.

What do you think of this beautiful dress?  I bought this to wear to the wedding reception.  Your daughter only gets married once right!  A definite reason to put on a party dress.  Also a reason to hit the gym and work on those shoulders.

Happy Friday! Looks like it is going to be a fantabulous weather day…for a change.Get outside and enjoy it while it lasts.
Burpees.You all know them.You all hate them. Anyone who says they like them needs serious therapy.This morning’s torture was 100 burpees.100!!!Well, that didn’t happen but I’m sure about 60 did.Can’t say much for my form but I did them.What was I thinking with each and every painful burpee?Andrea Nicholls.Yes Andrea, all I could think of while doing them was how you got us to do them in class at Nordion.They still hurt as much as ever but I think you’d be proud of me for doing as many as I did.I’m pretty proud of me.I will make sure to take a handful of ibuprofen before bed tonight so that I can get out of bed tomorrow.I think Sat…

Yes, I do own these beauties. Wednesday...half way to the weekend but so many hours left to go.Can cross cardio off today's list - I ran for the bus. So much has happened since my last blog. Weddings, birthdays, anniversaries and now it is almost Christmas.Are you ready?I'm getting there…slowly.
The fam is going to Montreal on Saturday so I am working on my to-do list which will start after our buds Charlie and Eddie finish up their sleepover at our place.We are looking forward to doing something Christmassy with them before they head home…better put on my creative hat soon. After that I am off for a pedicure compliments of Jaan - as my feet bask in the bubbles I am going to bestow the warmest thoughts on you Jaan. Maybe I’ll put the Christmas tree up (well, into the tree stand. I love the smell of real trees. Then we can spend the week putting on the lights and decorations.


I have a story.Grab yourself a coffee/tea, a cookie, a banana or just put your feet up for a few minutes an…

Long weekend excitement

Image
I am pretty excited that I have tomorrow off to start off the long weekend.

I am also pretty sad that the weather is going to suck and I may not get to go to the beach (for the first time all summer!)


But, I'll try to keep the excitement going at least for the next 8 hours to get through the work week.

I hope you all have some exciting, relaxing, fun filled plans for the weekend.



Some gym humour. Actually, this isn't me but there is a woman at the gym that likes to booty shake when a good song comes on.  Pretty amusing.




Who the heck does wall planks?  In jeans no less!  Why do wall planks?  Regular planks are hard enough, right?

HI HO, HI HO....
