Boot Camp - day 5

Just a quick check in before I have to get kids up and going. Today’s Skye’s first full day of Kindergarten. Sean has a dental appointment, so he’ll be missing school (he’s getting a filling, I think the novacaine will probably be more than he can deal with.)

This morning started with a backed up toilet. And I thought exercising at 5 am sucked. That’s nothing in comparison to standing in an inch of cold water barefoot and plunging an overflowing toilet! I was more than happy to jump on the elliptical for 60 after I got it successfully unclogged (yay me!) And then I still managed the 30 minutes of sheer torture Jillian puts me through care of her Biggest Winner DVD collection. I did the last one in the 5 DVD series. I don’t think I’ve ever made it through all 5 before!

Time to run. I’ve got kids to wake, clothe and feed in less than 30. I may have to start getting up at 4:30 to give myself enought time to get some blogging in. Not super thrilled about that idea.

UPDATE 10:22 PM

Today went better than it started. Food was on target. I had my small box of Junior Mints at the movies (Inglourious Basterds - Tarantino outdid himself. Just really excellent.) I’m setting in bed now (watching Making Over America with Trinny and Susannah, quite entertaining. There even more brutal than Clinton and Stacey - I believe these two British chicks are the original What Not To Wear girls, so that makes sense. Patty, you MUST watch. You’ll love it!)

I am SO looking forward to sleeping in til 6:30 tomorrow morning. OH HOW LUXURIOUS! I can hardly wait to get to sleep so I can enjoy it! Successful end to day 5!

  3. So glad to hear the new movie is good, we have been considering seeing it. And the new show sounds fabulous, I love “What Not to Wear”.

    Every day you come w/so much excitement and determination, I have no doubt you’ll make it all of the way to day 30. Is the Biggest Winner DVD really tough? I previewed one of the other BL DVDs and it was so beginner level that I hated it. Maybe I’ll have to check this one out.

    What type of elliptical do you have? Now that I had to quit the gym due to scheduling reasons I really want to buy one for home. Just curious.

    Keep up the great work, you’re a total inspiration.
