Excuses, excuses.

One way of avoiding a workout, is to go back to bed. I thought long and hard about doing just that this morning.

This morning after Willie went to work, I was going to go back to bed.  But while I was in the bathroom, I was looking straight into the eyes of a HUGE lump of dirty towels.  So I thought to myself "Self, I should throw half of them in the wash, and when it's time to put them in the dryer, I will do so, then go back to bed." 

I did just that.  I put half of them in the washer. While waiting for them to wash, I played Criminal Case of Facebook (because there is no more drama, I have resorted to wasting my time with games.)  Then when the washer stopped, I took the towels out, and put the rest in.  While waiting for the second load to wash, I washed, dried AND put away the dishes.  I usually let mum dry them, but today I didn't want to burden her with that task, so I did the whole shot. It usually takes me 3 or 4 days to get them put away.  They usually get used again before I get a chance to put them away. 

Now, the second load is drying and I have the urge to clean my bathroom.  And I intend to.  Once I am finished writing this post. 

I also intend to check cleaning the litter box, vacuuming, washing the floor (by hand because I don't have a mop), and putting the 2 loads of laundry (that have been sitting at the washer for a week or so) away off my list today.

All because I don't want to do my workout.  

In the end I will probably have sweated just as much as I would have had I done a workout, and my house will be clean :) win/win

It's been 5eva!

It has been indeed a while since I posted.  Not too much has changed since I posted. 

It is a new year.  I did not make a resolution.  I will continue to be myself.  I will continue to try and make a better effort in sticking to an exercise regiment.  Got rid of alot of drama in the past little while, making facebook a bit more boring.  I have resorted to playing Criminal Case.  

With trying to keep an exercise regiment, I had a little adventcha today in the woods.  I put on my boots, earmuffs and grabbed my camera.  

I wasn't a fan of the idea at first.  Walking in the snow to me was like walking in sand. And being a large person, I have fears of sinking and not being able to get up.  So I trucked out to the car, and drove to French Fort Cove.  I was surprised at how well the small trail was packed. The main trail was only about a foot wide, but it was well packed and no fear of sinking.

A few things I did learn on this adventcha, was to wear earmuffs.  Your ears will get cold.  I find ear muffs to be better than a hat because I get too hot if I have something on my head.  Don't dress too warm because walking in snow will make you sweat. A moderately warm jacket with a long sleeved shirt would do fine, and a scarf. 

Also, take beauty in every little thing you see.  In winter you can see alot more than you can in summer.  Things that are hidden by leaves in summer and out in the open in winter.

Try not to forget your clothes 

when you hang them out to dry.

Don't go off trail. Unless, of course, you are prepared with snow shoes.  You never know how deep the snow is or what, if anything, is underneath.









2 final tips before I post the pictures I took on my adventcha.

Don't eat

yellow snow.

WEAR SOCKS THAT ARE LONGER THAN ANKLE HIGH!! This will happen to you within a few steps. 

Most importantly, have fun.  Go sliding if possible, or make a snowman.  The snow in the woods wasn't wet enough for a snowman, and there was no way I was sliding, so here's the next best thing.  A picture I creepily took while walking back to my car.

I am going to leave you with some shots of trees I took while out today. I took tonnes, but I will post just the best ones.  I was kinda hoping that a squirrel would pop out or something, but no, not today.  

Enjoy
