C-c-c-c-cold
It’s cold, ‘nuf said. And sadly it’s getting colder. They are predicting -22 for Thursday night and that’s the AIR temperature, not the wind chill. Again, why do I live in Iowa???
The good news, though, is that we did have school today. Some sleet came in after the snow so it weighed it down and then when the winds came it didn’t turn into a blizzard. Instead, we had a 2-hour delay (that they announced last night, yay!)
I signed up for a supportive contest w/my sister and brother. It’s a competition between teams but we can support each other. It’s goes for 100 days and every Friday I’ll record my weight and minutes spent being active. I’m curious to see how this goes b/c this sister in particular is somewhat irritating but she’s a great cheerleader so it should help me. I’m not sure how it’s going to go w/my brother. He’s 8 years older than I am and since he was basically out of the house while I was a little kid we aren’t that close. In addition, his wife is a b*tch. For example, my grandpa died at their wedding (I swear I’m not making it up) and she was upset b/c the focus was taken away from her as the bride. I could go on for days about what a skank she is. Plus, she’s the one person in our family who is constantly thin and she LOVES it. If that’s not motivation I don’t know what is. But he has gone up and down in his weight and he is a good person so I hope we can all be successful.
I was worried that my gym schedule was going to be derailed b/c just as I was getting ready to leave school our AP called and asked if I could translate w/a parent. I’m the only person who speaks Spanish and I often get called to translate. Fortunately it was a fairly quick call so I still had time to lift lower body and get in 60 minutes on the treadclimber.
Days on plan this month: 7
Progress toward workout goal: 156/250
-22! Ouch, Im about to turn on the weather channel myself because everyone here is already talking about more snow. Thursday & friday are suppose to be very cold, 10’s not -22 lol! keep warm!
Goodluck with the support contest, that sounds like fun!
That thar is bone-chilling weather!
Hey, good luck on the competition. Hope you can out-skinny the skinny SIL.
Thank you for all your comments on my various musings, confessionals and rants. Seems like these days my posts are about everything BUT weight loss. I keep thinking I’ll turn the corner and get motivated to do something about my weight, but around every corner is another corner!
