30 Day Shred and an Update
So I just realized I haven't posted anything other than foodstuffs in a few days. Let's start with the 30 Day Shred:
Day 04: I woke up super tired this day. I realized I was a few seconds off and missed a move or two each time we switched. But I did it.
Day 05: Today's Shred was actually kind of easy and I didn't burn that many calories.
Day 06: I stepped it up this day by using 5 pound weights the entire time instead of switching between the 3lb and 5lb weights.
Day 07: Today I noticed I can get into the moves deeper than I could when I first started. I still have trouble at the end with the side lunges with anterior raises but it's getting better.

And now for the real update. I've been trying to get some of my food posts onto a couple food sites. I don't know why I've taken to this food blogging thing like I have. I actually think it's kind of weird but I'm enjoying it so I'll keep at it. I just need to get my pictures brighter and sharper. I'm working on it.
We went out to Springfield today and we bought some bedroom furniture. It was one of those times where O and I had been arguing about which set to get because I liked one and he liked the other. We saw a store we hadn't been to the other day while we were on our way to look at the other two sets again and as we walked through the store we both stopped at about the same time and fell in love with the same set. So we bought it. I even scored a free kitchen clock out of the deal! There are two problems though. 1) the nightstands won't be in until the end of June. 2) the salesguy I guess didn't hear us say we needed the tall chest of drawers and that isn't on our order. We definitely need those drawers so we will have to wait until Tuesday (they're closed Sunday's and Monday's) to call and see if we have to go back out there. As far as the nightstands go, we'll wait. It's worth it. Now we need to start the fight over the bedding. He wants black (of course) and I want something bright and pretty. I want my bedroom to be inviting like a hotel room. I would love a duvet but we will probably never settle on one. Blah! We need new bedding though because our current set is 7 1/2 years old and falling apart, literally.
While I was in Springfield, I also signed up for the Wilton Course 2 Cake Decorating class. I'm pretty excited about that. The class starts Monday evening. Sadly the drive is an hour and a half each way and I'll have to do it alone (and in the dark on the way back) but the tunes should be good and it should be worth it. I really want those certificates of completion dammit!
As we were driving away from our house O got a phone call and we stopped. He started giving someone directions to our house and realized the person he was talking to was in a van in one of our neighbor's driveways. I soon found out that it was the flower delivery person delivering my beautiful Mother's Day lilies. O was disappointed they were smaller than he thought they would be but they're still beautiful. As we drove away he told me we could now talk about the second part of my gift...I got to pick out a waffle maker!!!! I picked out two of them and he's going to choose which one to order for me. I'm so excited to get it and can't wait to make waffles!!
Well, I guess that's it for now. I'm hungry and trying really hard not to go to the fridge and grab a piece of my mom in law's fridge cake that I made last night. Oh man this is tough. But I have a weigh in tomorrow morning so I need to be good tonight.
I hope I actually sleep tonight. I didn't get to sleep until some time after 3am this morning and I'm feeling pretty awake now and it's almost midnight. We'll see....
Okay bye.
