Hi gang!\u00a0 Listen yesterday was just Le Crazah with me cranking out stuff here at home which lead to no post.\u00a0 I know you all understand which is why I don’t even stress about it but I do still feel the need to explain myself so perhaps I still stress a bit? I also apologize for that terrible run on sentence but whatever I was not an English\/Journalism major, I was Crim-Psych and we didn’t care about no stinkin’ sentence structure.\u00a0 Unless we were turning in paper and even then whatever.<\/p>\n

Random fact that will blow your mind(although my other fellow grannies will yell HOLLA): Back in the day when I was in college, most people didn’t even have computers.\u00a0 Yup. Had to type a paper?\u00a0 Computer lab baby, computer lab.\u00a0 I had my own but no printer so I still had to kick in the lab to print out my shiz.\u00a0 And I got to carry around those sexah discs.\u00a0 USB what? Not.\u00a0 Typing papers in high school was nonexistent.\u00a0 You had to hand write those puppies and depending on your style of writing a 10 page paper could be easy or difficult.\u00a0 You pick!<\/p>\n

We also didn’t have cell phones in college. No one did, hell we were still getting used to those new fangled cordless phones with the extending antenna! The kind that you would bang against the wall until you got used to the fact it extended 2 feet away from the handset.\u00a0 Yes those! \u00a0 Had to call someone long distance?\u00a0 Calling cards.\u00a0 If you had one that was 10cents a minute you were golden because most of them were 25cents a minute.\u00a0 Scott had a 10cent one, that rate kicked in after 7pm (restrictions FTW!) which was handy since we went to different colleges 7 hours apart.\u00a0 He also had more money than I did in college so I didn’t mind him being the one making the call in the evening. True story.\u00a0 He also has more money than I do now so at least we are consistent!<\/p>\n

I had a 5 mile run yesterday and then came back and did some of Gina’s<\/a> workout.\u00a0 I mixed and matched, some from the beginners and some from the intermediate.\u00a0 I also don’t have a medicine ball yet so I used my handweights for some things which totally worked out.\u00a0 I have to say that I felt awesome after my workout! I love running and feel good afterwards, but yesterday running combined with the weights, I got the high<\/em>.\u00a0 I love the high!\u00a0 Normally I only get that if I do speed drills and quick fast runs.\u00a0 I do not get the runners high from distance alone.\u00a0 Yesterday running plus weights gave me a workout high and it was fantastic!\u00a0 For sure I need to do this more often.<\/p>\n

Anyway yesterday was same old same old except I was kicking it Donna Reed style most of the day.\u00a0 Lunch was the usual with an addition:<\/p>\n

A little bit of Amy’s veggie barely soup on the side.\u00a0 I bumped up the veg by mixing in the leftover mashed cauliflower from Sunday.\u00a0 I am a rockstar!\u00a0 It totally worked, now had I actually liked this Amy’s soup I probably would have been a bit more happy.\u00a0 Sometimes Amy’s soups seem to have a very weird onion taste going on.\u00a0 Since I love onions, for me to say “weird onion” you know something totally funky must be happening.\u00a0 I think I’m going to stick with the tomato and lentil versions of her soup.<\/p>\n
