Anywho, after work last night, I ran home and changed clothes and took Nora on a fiesty 3.5 mile walk/uphill hike before the storm hit. I have decided that I am going to try my hardest to take a good calorie-killing walk every day that it is nice outside. I'm a bit bummed because I saw the weather report and it's supposed to rain Saturday.. so it looks like I'm most likely not doing the Kicks for Kids 5k. I just hate to register and pay my entry fee then have it be storming as I am most definitely not trekking Nora through a down-pour for 3.1 miles lol.
I made Spaghetti and Turkey Meatballs for dinner last night. Not much change to the recipe, I ate 3 meatballs with a touch of sauce and a banana. It was kind of funny becuase in the middle of cooking, the tornado sirens started going off so I shut the stove/oven off and we went to the basement. Turns out, the food continued to cook (in a warm oven and pasta still in hot water) and it was perfectly cooked by the time we came back upstairs!
I did cardio and a little bit of abs this morning at the gym. The workout went as follows;
TIME | EXERCISE | REPS | WEIGHT | SETS |
5M | TREADMILL | 1 WALK / 4 JOG | N/A | 1 |
BALL CRUNCHES | 20 | N/A | 4 | |
SWITCH STEPS | 30 SEC | N/A | 4 | |
5M | STAIR GLIDER | N/A | N/A | 1 |
25M | ELLIPTICAL | N/A | N/A | 1 |
I was surprised/disappointed to find how hard the 4minute jog was this morning. I pushed through without stopping, but found it to be incredibly challenging. Oh well, building endurance takes time so I'll just continue to do 4 minutes for the remainder of the week.

Well, that's about all I have for today. For the sake of my husband and the rest of the people that have to be around me, I hope I'm in a better mood tomorrow. But, I guess that's up to me, right?
