Huge naps, eBags Packing Cubes, and Morning Lifting

Wow, yesterday evening all my plans went out the window...or to the couch like me. I was going to wash the car, vacuum it, clean the windows, and wipe down the dash, doors, etc. I managed to get in the house, drop all my stuff in the kitchen, change into some pjs and lay down! My goodness gracious! I managed to finish "The Tourist" starring Angelina Joile and Johnny Depp before falling asleep at 7 and waking up at 10. I fell asleep for good at 11:45. I hate being that tired!


I ordered some eBags packing cubes a few weeks ago, they making packing easier. Click here http://www.ebags.com/product/ebags/packing-cubes-3pc-set/13032?productid=949922 to see them! They're good for keeping things organized in your closet, and the 3 pack set fits perfectly in a carry-on size bag. I started packing for my beach vacation last weekend, and these bags are so awesome! I have pants and shirts in one, necessities in another, and my bathing suits and cover up in another. I have room for a few pairs of flip flops and my makeup, shampoo bag will fit, too! I believe I like packing because it lets me know something awesome is getting ready to happen! Plus, if I pack well and light, I don't have a hard time UNpacking when I get back home.

I woke up early this morning to do 30 minutes of weights. I did 20 minutes of light lifting to get my muscles warmed up, then I did 10 minutes of all-out, red faced, can't make one more rep lifting. My arms are sore, but it feels nice.

I ordered some Vibram Five Fingers Bikila barefoot shoes. I am going to wear those around the house for a couple of weeks to get my foot used to walking barefoot. I've read that I can't just go out and run my normal distance in these shoes because I will suffer and over use injury to a part of my foot I don't normally use. I will take that advice! I'm pretty excited to get them in the mail today.

I ordered a body fat monitor also, I have gotten my body fat percentage measured 2 times, and I want to be able to track it on a regular basis. I am going to focus on losing fat instead of weight. I want to have nicely defined muscles!

Until next time...
