busy, rainy day

+ today ranked pretty high on the productivity scale. saw a bunch of kiddos at work, got a bunch of wedding junk done at home. also, donny cooked me a very satisfying dinner!

woke up to thunderstorms. did NOT want to get out of bed. therefore did not take a shower, nor did i put on makeup. and i had no umbrella so i was a bit damp. i was looking GOOD today.


this weekend was awesome, albeit exhausting. i got to see my grandma and aunt karen, who i haven't seen in a while. my shower was absolutely perfect. the wine, cheese, cake, and company were wonderful- thank you to my beautiful hostesses! i got a decent fill of kate time also. she is pretty much saying her first words... i think. dog, dada, and mama. so cute! and then on sunday, all of the women (mom, erin, kate, grandma, aunt karen, and i) went to the renaissance festival and enjoyed fried food and people watching to our hearts' content. donny and i got back in town last evening and started to unpack some wedding gifts. the fact that we need a bigger place is becoming quite obvious. speaking of which, donny and i (and some of our friends and family) had long discussions this weekend regarding our future plans. we are back to being pretty up-in-the-air, so i don't really want to talk any more about it right now.

CrossFit 10.26.09

warm-up
3 sets of 10 reps of:
push ups
pull ups (with medium resistance band)
overhead squats (no weight)
pull ups are continuing to get easier, which is good because they are in tomorrow's WOD.

strength
max back squat= 112 lbs
good for me, weak in comparison to most of the others. but still making progress!

WOD
3 rounds of:
25 kettle bell swings (20lbs)
20 wall balls (6lbs)
15 sit-ups
time= 7:52
my time was pretty good- one of the top female times. i felt like i could have done more weight on my swings. the 6lb medicine ball was tough because i used the small one instead of the oversized one- required a lot more coordination, and also the weight was more concentrated. it was kind of hurting my hands. but that's just because i'm weak. all in all though, a good workout.
