B took me surfing this weekend and it was AWESOME!!! I want to go again, hehe.
I had such a blast (even tho everything I have ever seen on Shark Week was playing in the back of my mind). I lasted longer than I thought I would. I assumed I’d be done in like 30 miutes but I managed somewhere between 60-90 minutes.
I started to get cold towards the end since it seemed the waves stopped coming in and we were just sitting on the boards for awhile. I managed to stand up for like under 2 seconds one time but I definitely got a decent idea of what kinda feeling I’m looking for to even try getting up.
I was forewarned that my knees would be bruised. B knows what he’s talking about. I do have 2 bruised knees! Well worth it tho. My ribs are bruised too, tho not visibly. I have mutant ribs that stick out that we were making fun on before we ever went surfing… and yes the mutant ribs apparently were roughed up by the board. Really funny actually, doesn’t hurt bad but it’s amusing. I think I bruised my chin too which should teach me to be on the right part of the board!!
I cannot wait to go again. Totally can see myself enjoying this a lot. And it was AMAZING to be in the ocean and not have to worry about contacts!!!!
I made us chocolate chip pancakes with freshly made whipped cream on Saturday. They were good. I love making stuff from scratch, makes me feel so accomplished. Even more so when it’s enjoyed! It also made me decide to get a griddle so I can make more than one pancake at a time, LOL. So I went out and bought a nice large Lodge griddle/grill that will fit over 2 burners. I think I should be able to make 6 at a time now. We had left overs and B suggested freezing them, I had never heard of that but I did. We had the rest this morning and they were still rockin’!
Next weekend, French Toast I think.
I really do enjoy doing this kind of stuff. Makes me feel good on like 10 different levels, hehe.
I even made myself some chicken on the grill side of my new toy. It was good! But reinforced in my had why I don’t cook for just myself. Pain in the butt clean up. Especially since this is cast iron, but it had the best reviews when I was looking online. Bought it at Great News in PB. Was like 8 bucks cheaper than I saw online and it’s like 16 lbs so I probably saved even more since I didn’t need to pay for shipping.
I also went for a short run today and felt pretty good. Only went about 2.1 miles but I ran that at a decent pace. I have been slacking at running with all the other stuff that’s been going on but it’s time to get back on track and split the workout time between running and P90X. Basically if it’s a nice evening out it will be a run and if it’s not so nice it will be P90X. I think that should work out pretty well.
I have given up on the Nike+. That thing just isn’t accurate for the way I run I guess. I’m quite happy just planning out my route on dailymile.
Man this weekend flew by tho. Not that I mind at all, just means it was fun! I want eternal weekends tho!
I did manage to forget to pay my Q2 estimated taxaes last week. Hopefully the penalty will be overlooked or very small.
Tomorrow I get my hair highlited red again. I’m excited about that. I love the red, I just wish it lasted longer. The brightness only lasts about a week then it just looks a lot more subtle.
I have decided against purchasing a house, I think I have mentioned that before. So I think I’m gonna let my Dad invest a lot of the cash I saved up for me. Tho I am gonna put a few thousand aside so I can lift the Jeep. I’ve really had that on my mind lately, hehe.
Anyways… Good, good weekend.
