Hiya!

Hello my fellow followers! (You know who you are!)  Heck, hi to those visiting for the first time and those who casually check in once in a while. Great to see you too!

So, I promised I wouldn't be "that person". You know, the one who blogs about EVERYTHING! I was just going to blog on Fridays. But I couldn't do it this week. I really missed you guys!

This weekend started with me utterly failing to work out as I had planned. Friday workout? Saw a movie instead. (Deadpool. If you haven't seen it go. Go now! Best movie of the year!!!) Saturday? No one is home, I think I'll just do an anime marathon. Sunday? Oh crap! Everyone is coming home today. I have to clean the house!

While no exercise got done, there was an examination of conscious. The conclusion was mainly, wow am I lazy! I knew that already, really I did. But this time I was aware I was making the decision not to exercise. And I didn't like it. So, I got right back on that horse and headed out to my first training session at the gym I joined. That was a huge disappointment. The guy said go do this (which I had already been doing) and go work in this area (which I already told him I had tried and not liked). All in the space of about 10 minutes when there was an entire hour to fill. No showing what he meant or showing how to use the workout machines. Since there was an older woman who had never worked on the weight machines before in my poorly executed group session, I ended up showing her the ropes. (Hmmm....wonder if I can get paid for that?) Yeah, felt a bit low and uninspired after that.

But hope was on the horizon! Yesterday I was approached by a co-worker who had seen me at the gym on Monday. She graciously has volunteered to show me how to use the equipment I actually want to use! Plus yesterday I met a fellow member of the Rebellion online! (Nerd Fitness. Such an awesome website. Nerds, geeks, fantasy enthusiasts, anyone who wants to get in shape, go to their website!!!) This person is going to go to the same Spartan Sprint as I am. And this will not be their first race either. I have a mentor!!! Granted on-line and probably mostly cheerleading, but I have a mentor!!!

Hmm...what a lot of writing. Sorry to go on like that. I'll try to make Friday's blog a little shorter. I've been attention starved this week. (Love me!) <laugh>

For now, I want you to start thinking about your workout habits. Might just be an eye opener! 

Later!
