Yep, that's me.
It's snowing outside. Half an hour ago it couldn't decide if it should be raining or snowing, so there were small hail-like bits of frozen ice hitting me.
Since I'm not in boot camp to prepare me to defend my country, I see no reason why I should subject my arthritis-prone joints to such indignities. Instead, I shall pull out my hula hoop, free weights and yoga mat and come up with some sort of activity to prepare me to wear a Christmas party dress. Oh yeah, did I tell you the great news? The party's been moved...AHEAD by a week! Egad!
And there's vino and homemade pizza for dinner! Mmmm!
OK. So I've done my own boot camp that involved:
- warm up (jogging, skipping, marching)
- squats (plie and regular)
- lateral and front shoulder raises
- tricep extensions and kick backs
- bicep curls
- plank
- V-sit with shoulder raises
- flyes
- hula hooping for 10+ minutes
Followed all that with some yoga:
- pigeon
- thread the needle
- reclined cobbler
- reclined twists
- firebird
Only to discover that my oven is not cooking my pizza! EGAD! I think it's the element and I've got a call in to the landlord but holy smokes, I made a mean pizza and now I want it!!
Update: S saved me and my pizza! Whoo hoo! It was tres yummy. And now my cozy bed beckons. 'Night, all!
