INSANITY!

So, I started Insanity tonight... It was ridiculously hard.  I thought I was going to die just in the fit test.  Even though it was miserable, I am still really excited to see what kind of results I will get in two months.  All the Beach Body DVDs that I have gotten have worked really well, so we shall see!  Art and I have some great plans for October and afterward, so it would be nice to be fitting into some of those older clothes that have been sitting in the back of my closet.  I just can't let go of some things, you know?  Those size 6 jeans that I wore to every party in college are still in there... They will probably never be worn again, but I just can't get rid of them.  I mean, size 6, people.  I am not a tiny person, so for me, that is like a double 0.  Haha.

Lately I have been obsessed with the Kardashians.  Why are their TV shows so addicting.  As I sit here typing this, I am secretly dying to watch the marathon that I recorded today... And, I think I will.  Not that I need sleep or anything.  Art has been gone for quite awhile now, and I am getting really burned out on the whole single mom thing.  I don't know how some people do it every day for years and years.  You have my respect, for sure.

This post was all over the place, but hey, I blogged!  It's a start.

As of Lately...

Maybe I am a little biased, but I just think that my little boy is cuter than all the other babies on the planet.

Now that I got that out there, let me tell you what I have been doing lately after Trae goes to bed... Working out. Yes, working out. I hate, loathe, hate, hate, hate working out. I would rather go two weeks without eating than run. Luckily, I have my old go-to work out video, Slim in Six. It is old school, for sure, but it sure does work. I am sore, and I think that is a good thing in the work out world. Basically, there are six videos in the series. Three are designed to be done for six weeks. The other three can be done in addition or for maintenance. The first is done for one week. It isn't too painful. Just about thirty minutes and it gets you accustomed to everything else you do in the following weeks. The next two are terribly painful and long and boring, but they sure do get results. So, in a P90X world, I stick with my Slim in Six.

After these six weeks, I plan to re-try Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred. Um, this DVD is EVIL. I have never had a more painful twenty minutes... and all the jumping around probably drives the downstairs neighbors crazy.

Speaking of downstairs neighbors: Our lease is up in June. I think I previously talked about how we were building a house. Well, we are no longer. The main reason for this is because we did a lot of praying about getting a house and felt like God was saying no, this is not the right time. Then we realized that if we did not get a house, we could pay off all of our credit cards and be almost debt-free (minus the HUGE medical bill we will be paying forever) in about a month. How amazing will that feel, guys? I can't even imagine going to pay bills and not having to pay all those credit cards, thinking that a lot of that money is just getting wasted in interest. So, we will be renting for another year, but maybe (hopefully) next year will be the year that God says "go for it" when it comes to buying or building. Yep, that's that.

I honestly don't feel like uploading any pictures today. Sorry.
