You're welcome.

This morning I took my fine dining chef-ery skills up a couple notches and made CHOCOLATE peanut butter popcorn. When you try this you will feel like you're in heaven and your life will feel complete and fulfilled and your big toe and pinky toe will give all the middle toes a group hug. For that I say, you're welcome.

Blog neglect

Guilty!

If my blog were a gigapet it would be soooooooooooo dead by now. But really, it's Friday night and I don't want to spend a million hours doing a catch-up blog-so this should about say it right.

All in the name of beauty

Monday, Monday

It's Monday. The weekend off from my Ripped in 30 has come to an end, but if you'll remember my post from yesterday, I'm quite sunburnt on my chest right below my collarbones.

Here's my dilemma: Do I workout and sweat and risk disrupting the healing process of my sunburn? I've noticed that when I burn and then sweat it pushes the old skin off prematurely.

Ugh, with the wedding on Friday I really wanted to kick it hard this week so I had no qualms about getting all glitzed up for the festivities.

And yet I hesitate because I'd hate to be scabbed/red with my purty, purty dress on.

What thinks you?

Every rose has its thorn

...and every summer has it's unforgiving, excruciatingly painful sunburn.

Anybody have a pool of aloe vera I can take a dip in?

I feel happy of myself!!

Alli and I completed our 30th day this morning which was composed of 51 workouts equaling to about 31 hours of sweat time in the garage.
We were talking amidst our blood, sweat, and tears about how we thought week 1 was tough! Anyway, this kid pretty much sums up my thoughts today. If you'll excuse me, I have some fat-pants to give away :)

My perfect evening

I love food, beer, and volleyball separately enough. But put them together?? MAGICAL!

This two-a-day stuff 28 days in is getting to be a pretty difficult pace to keep up with...but I did it!

Also, my partner in this journey took a major hit today. Poor Alli has to have a giant purple cast on her arm for 3 weeks due to a rollerblade fall that happened last night. Any rollerbladers out there: invest in some wrist guards, you won't regret it. Unlike Alli who's staring at her cast like a honey badger does a cobra:

Day of rest! Our first day off since starting this whole journey. It was a beautiful day to not be in the garage doing push-ups, let me tell ya!

Our one-workout-day on Saturday. It was such a gorgeous day...let me put it this way, if drinking beer and enjoying the lake were a workout, we'd all be a mid-80s Arnold Shwartzenagger (I guessed on the spelling, but you know who I mean). Mmmm...sexy

Sorry for my blog neglect. 23 came and went with two workouts. It rained outside so we opened the doors and let the cool breeze attempt to help us breathe. It was nice.
