I’m Spoiled
I knew today is going to be a good day once my husband served me my coffee and cherry turnover. He even let me use his coffee mug coz mine was dirty from the cup of tea that I drank last night.
Because I’ve been following my workout routine to a T which means I have to exercise on the weekends too, I’m rewarded with K Special Dark Chocolate protein shake. Now this is definitely life. I know can rely on my husband on buying me a medical step stool if I ever need it someday. So random, I know!
One Of Her Is Enough
She had so much fun posing for the camera when I took her pictures in this pretty dress a few weeks ago that I decided to create this 6-Emma Lyn picture illusion thing in photoshop. In the middle of cloning, smudging, and softening the background I couldn’t help but imagine actually having 6 of them. Then I smack myself in the forehead because first of all, 6 of these little things will drive us totally insane. As much as we love her, whewww, she’s a handful, let me tell ‘yah. That’s 6 times the attitude, and 6 times the expenses of dressing her up. Although the latter would be so much fun I’m sure, then reality will set in that it also means that’s +6 girls to put through college instead of just 2(Caine and Emma Lyn). And most probably, future 6 background check for any boy that ever comes near them. Daddy is definitely going to have major headache. So yes, we’ll just be grateful with 1 and let photoshop enjoy the other 5.
I Love Winning An Argument, Don’t You?
It feels really good to win an argument. Especially an argument with someone who’s got a one-track mind most of the time. And someone as feisty as I am. It is such an accomplishment in my daily mundane life. Winning makes me feel like I’m worth every breath I take on this earth. Like the tuna-popcorn argument I had with my feisty daughter.
Ems: Mommy, tuna sandwich and popcorn.
Mom: Just tuna sandwich for lunch.
Ems: NO, tuna sandwich and popcorn, pleaassee..
Mom: STAR tuna sandwich.
Ems: STAR tuna sandwich??
Mom: YUP
Ems:
POINT 1 goes to Mommy!
Sore Yet Energized
Day 3 of my Insanity and Turbo Fire hybrid. Every muscle ache I feel reminds me of why I can never complete a full 9 months hybrid of these programs. If I make it to day 5 I am soooo going to celebrate. If, I can get up to walk of course, Haha. I’m really not complaining though. Seriously, I’m so energized that I’m telling myself to slow down. During workout, I amaze myself at how good I’m doing the moves. I’ve always wondered how even through soreness from Insanity, the more you move the better you feel. When I think I couldn’t possibly do 1 more power jump, I end up doing another set of 8. I’m working this hard so I can shop for that very sexy lingerie, truth be told, Hehe! Most importantly, staying healthy for my children. I want to be alive and healthy to see them get married, have their own children, and to experience a different kind of muscle ache
. That’s the purpose of my fitness nowadays. Well you know, it wouldn’t hurt to look good in all the cute dresses, shorts, and swimsuits this Summer. BAMM!
March 26th Insanity Fit Test Results
So I’ve decided to start Insanity again. I think I did it for 2 weeks back in January but this exercise is really hard to do with Turbo Fire which is also a hard cardio workout so I stopped it. I’ve been doing just Turbo Fire this March. But for the last week of March, I’m getting back to it again. To help with my motivation, and most importantly, accountability, I’m posting here my Insanity Fit Tests results every two weeks.
I have done so much better in the past but today I told myself not to be a show off and just take it easy. No need to be busting my knees and hips in the first day of getting back to Insanity again. So those numbers are quite humbling. The next Insanity fit Test will be in 2 weeks, with the hybrid of Turbo and Insanity within those 2 weeks, I’m confident I’ll be delivering higher numbers. I CAN DO THIS, AGAIN!!
Meanwhile, what’s your fitness routine?
Pinterest Funnies, Series #1
I’ve decided to post series of funny quotes, and anything else under the sun that I find in Pinterest lately. I love that thing. It’s like eating dark chocolate while drinking wine on a Friday night. It’s delicious and addictive. And I love the funny and witty quotes as much as I love finding pictures of food, recipes, craft, fashion, home decors, etc.. Too many good stuff not to share so here’s series #1.
March 9th Photo-A-Day Challenge: RED
March 9th Photo-A-Day Challenge: RED
What’s sexier than a pair of red heels? This is definitely one of my favorite pair of shoes. It hurts after a couple of hours for sure but as any women who loves to wear high heels know, it’s all worth it. Or something like that, HAH!
