Beachbody

Have you ever done a workout video and quit because it was too dumb or whining? I can't tell you how many videos I have purchased and just thrown away. Finally I have found a program I love. P90X! it really kicks your backside. Start Date is Monday. Day one of owchy and oh my backside hurts. Add in a daily whine of "do I have to move? " I don't want to look like a super model. I don't want a ripped body. The only thing I really want is a healthy Rose.

Bloggers

4 blogs I follow are inactive. The authors walked away without saying goodbye. They have a few more months on my list before I will delete them. A few more blogs haven't had a new post in several weeks. It is summer. I understand. Great news? Miss Rita Skeeter (borrowed from another blogger) has not sent any of the blogs I follow into hiding. :-P. That makes me very happy. I know I am not an abused wife. Dragon would never hurt me. Anyone who honestly reads my blog can see that. Our story is one of love and commitment. It hasn't always been easy but we are determined not to give up. Thanks for staying. We are part of a community. We need to stick together.

Chores??

Yes, I now have a list of chores to do. I must be sinking again and didn't realize it. Two 15 minute tasks and 5 minutes unpacking boxes. More is too overwhelming. Sigh. I will just have to put on my big girl panties and deal with it. Unless I have a very good reason, I better have everything done or there will be consequences. That means my backside will be sore. I hate, hate, hate the chore list and tasks but they are for my own good. Dragon is on top of things right now. I am not going to push my luck on this one. Sorry for the short posts. I am using the phone again. Gotta get a wiggle on. Time to get moving. :-P

Hair cut?

Maybe???? Dragon picked up a blue Splat Rebellion hair color kit. Yes! I want to do it but I think green instead and cut my hair into long layers. It curls so nice when it is layered. Sorry this is so short. Typing on a phone is not fun. Time to give my Dragon some attention. ;-)

Exersize (OT not DD related)

WOW today sure did kick my tail.  Today is day two of running.  Ok, more of a walk/run kinda thing.  Okay.  More walk than run.

Take a moment to consider that in November I was struggling to make it to the mail box to check the mail at a slow walk.  Now I know I can walk 5 miles and a good pace.   Right on track for the Komen event I am registered for and WAS raising money for.  Until I did a little more digging.  The CEO of the company just got a huge raise.  68% even while support for the charity is dropping.  7 walks have been canceled for next year.  These are major events and she is making over half a million dollars?

Yep, I pulled my support and stopped fundraising for them.  I just can't contribute to her paycheck.   Not when we are struggling to make our own ends meet.

What now?  The first goal was the Komen 3 Day.  That isn't going to happen.   Now I move on to step 2.  Run a  5k. A friend put a call out looking for team members for a fun run in the fall.  Not a race.  No winners, even mall walkers welcome.  All fitness levels.  The goal is FUN and Fitness.

I can do that!

So now I am working on running.  Step 3 after all is a half marathon.  I have a running path laid out.  A lap is .25 of a mile.  My starting point is run one, walk two.  Well.  I can't run that far yet.  It is a goal after all.  I am using land marks on the street as goals, breaking it up into smaller bites.  Kinda pathetic right now but improving already.  I have only been at it one week and I can already do more!  Yippee! ! !

Failure is failing to try.

I am running, just not very fast or very far right now.  But I am trying!  I am sleeping better at night but really don't have much energy left during the day.  That will change with time.  That mid day nap is now a necessity. I can't keep my eyes open.  I have lost some fat.  Dragon tells me hat my hips and waist are noticeably smaller.  No scales.  Not even looking at the tape measure unless I am sewing.   I want to be healthy, not a number.

Ps, Dragon said that I will run and he is even going to take the day off work to be there!  He said that he has missed too much over the years and he will be there for me.  Love my Dragon just a little.

Snake Adventures and lack of spankings

Yep it happens... life gets in the way of all things fun.

When Dragon is working 10-16 hour days, he comes home tired.  I have his plate fixed and the bed turned down.  No spanking, not much talk.  Just quiet time together before we both turn in after a long day.  I treasure that quiet time.  It happens even on days he gets home at a reasonable hour.  Holding hands, watching the sunset or just sitting close together.

Three times this week he had planned to spank.  Three times life got in the way.   The good part?  My spanko is back! ! !  He planned to do the deed.  Sunday, we were both tired.  Monday, he didn't get home until almost midnight.  Tuesday, I fell asleep before he came to bed and that wasn't the only problem Tuesday!  The kids found a copper head out by the door we use to get to the garage.  The good part is that they aren't aggressive snakes but I still don't want to take my chances.

We use that door for a lot of things.

That is where the motorcycle is parked, where the lawnmower lives and where the garbage can sits.  Yikes...  I have to use that door and there is a snake living in the bushes!  EEEKKKKK  I will be buying a few sticky rat traps to put out there.  If the traps don't get it, Dragon loaded the glock with rat shot.  I don't have very much rat shot but I have enough to get one snake!  The squirrel gun is handy too just in case.  But I will have to load it.

I will get that snake one way or another.  HATE HATE HATE snakes.  I am terrified of spiders and I am even more afraid of snakes!  Shivers.  There is NO way Dragon will drag me off to the garage with that snake out there lurking in the bushes or even inside the garage.  It could bite my buttt. Now that would be interesting to explain to the paramedics and ER doc.

NOT

So yes.  All kinky fun and spanking activities are put on hold until I get that snake.

I am sad.

Then there is the snake that lives under the bath tub I still haven't caught and the one living in the flower bed under the tree. (but I think those are just chicken snakes.)  Dragon will be bringing home more rat traps for me tonight.  I don't want the sheriff out here investigating gun shots unless I have to.

monster in law

Oh my goodness!! I am about to let my bitch show. This soutern lady is MAD. And I don't have my flask. My backside is going to be sore when we get home. Dragon is always ready with wize words. He said that this is just the way she is and to ignore her. The nasty in me says fine I am VERY good at ignoring people. But that isn't the right thing to do. Time to put on my big girl panties and re join the family as much as I don't want to. Missing my whiskey. My I don't give a flying tuck juice.
