I really stink at this blogging thing... I am constantly thinking, "I should blog about that!" But I never get the job done! This morning I did something new and so I decided today should be the day I get back on the blog train. :-)
I'll start by saying, I am NOT a morning person. I'm not crabby or difficult in the morning. Its just that my blankets and bed REALLY love me and I hate to disappoint them by abandoning them too early. So, when Boot Camp Madness made its way to New Sharon I had two choices. 5:45 in the evening (which would be difficult because Dan mows and I would have no place for the kids) or 5:15 AM... Well, at 4:55 this morning, I rolled my tired rear out of bed, pulled myself away from my warm blankets and made my way out into the darkness before dawn. Dan is an early riser, but I even beat him today. He's always said, "If you would just get up and get going, you'd feel better!" Ok, ok... I give in. It's not very often that a wife says this to her husband (and I hesitate to even put it in writing, much less on line for fear that it will come back to bite me in the butt..) here it goes... "Dan, you were... right." UUUUGGHHH.... That was tough. ;-) Not really, but you get my point. I actually feel really good and the prospect of getting up again tomorrow to go get the snot beat out of me actually sounds appealing.
I supposed I should explain a little bit about BCM (Boot Camp Madness). It is a 30 minute, high intensity, interval workout. Today we did squat jumps, tricep pulls, trunk twists, mountain climbers (HATE), suitcases, high knees, bicep curls, and crunches. Three rounds of one minute of each exercise with 15 seconds to transition to the next. Thought I would hurl... People who had experienced it before kept saying, "Just throw up, you'll feel better." They don't know me very well... Throwing up might give the illusion that I couldn't hack it and THAT was not happening. As awful as it was while it was going on, I loved it! I am ready for tomorrow! Boot Camp Madness, I give you permission to kick my booty again. :-)
