Although I’ve been fighting this head cold, there has also been a ton of overtime available at work lately, so, I’ve been caught in between being ill and making money. So, it turned out that I have worked every day since the 3rd of February, except two days that I was too sick to make it in. Today is my day off and I’ve worked 16 hours of overtime. In 3 days I will be working 40 hours, 32 of which is overtime. After those three days, I still have another 6 days of work. Whew…
I will be taking off the last weekend in the month however, when my sister and mom are coming to visit! I am really excited and can’t wait till they get here.
I thought I had more to say, but I guess at 0400 and not a whole lot of sleep I’m just too tired to concentrate.
I’ve been working out for a few weeks now and what a difference a bit of exercise can make in a person’s life.
All last summer, from about April through August, I ran every other day in the neighborhood that I live. I started out running a .5 mile, then a mile, until I ran the Zoo Run Run, a 6 mile race, in August. I really felt like I accomplished something then, and truly missed running when the cold weather hit. As the fall and then winter dragged on, I could see that my body was going back to it’s old “stick-figure” shape and that’s all the further motivation I needed to get back to exercising again. Exercising isn’t just to slim down for those that have a few extra pounds, its also great for us who have no mass, to actually get some.
Now that I’ve been exercising for about 4 weeks again, I am really making strides towards regaining the level I was at in August and even surpassing it in ways. On Monday, I ran 1.5 miles in 12:32. I’ve never done that before. I have been running 10 minute miles at the top of my game back in August. To be able to surpass that in such a short time of exercising and running again has me really amazed. I thought it was supposed to be harder to make these gains as you got older??
On top of the running, I am also keeping up with a pretty good strength training routine, not to mention drinking fresh veggie/fruit juice and otherwise eating a high-protein diet. I even came down with a nasty – nasty cold, and within three days, was up and at ‘em, with little residual effect of the illness. Amazing!
I also now know what days my Physical Fitness Assesment is, and I am going to ace that thing!!!
Yes, FINALLY!!! The Kindle 2.0 is being released. It will start shipping on February 24th… and yes folks, I have one on pre-order for this lucky chica right here!!! Yippee!!!!!!!
Amazon started accepting orders for their newest version of their e-book reader today. I put my order in and some time on March 2nd.. 7 days into the release (they have received that many orders already!!) I will have mine hit the shipping floor!
Approx 30 days from now I should be reading the very first e-book on my new e-book reader. I can’t wait! This is better than Christmas! Thank God for overtime and Tax refunds!

So, now the only question that remains is… What book to buy first?? I’m taking suggestions, comment with any you may have.
It has been so darn cold lately. Wiscosnin hasn’t seen above freezing in weeks, except for of course, the weekend I was gone. How is that fair?
Ben and Alley are doing fine, despite the cold, but we’ve had to lessen our trips to the park for now. The weather is just not cooperating, but the kids are still getting their exercise, mostly annoying each other.
I’ve happily been able to put both of them on much more of a raw diet lately, which makes me happy. Even Alley is eating her veggie pulp. Such a good girl. Of course I have extra veggie pulp because, as well as working out, I’ve also been juicing fresh fruits and vegetables to have with my breakfast after my exercise. I tell ya, I can literally feel it. And… no waste, the dogs eat everything I don’t.
Since Ben’s favorite activity is eating, I had no doubt that he would eat the pulp, but Al can be finicky, but she ate it all up today, in record time, of course the little bit of tuna on top was probably helpful!
