Walking & Playlists

One of my other goals not resolution this year besides getting all comfy cozy with my DSLR is walking everyday for at least 30 minutes. I used to be very structured about this but kinda fell off the wagon when my back was so messed up last year.

Since I do my PT pretty regularly my back is much better so the walking everyday has come back into play.

And since I love to multitask I thought this would be the perfect time to see the real difference between an action photo taken with the built in auto action setting on my camera (Left) and an action photo taken with manual (Right).Pretty big difference right?? But I think I slowed it down a bit too much on the Right one cause it looks like I am standing still. LOL (and yes those are Tilda’s kitty cat babies. They help me stay motivated!!)

I have added several core workouts over the past several months as well to my PT/exercise which I watch/do daily. You can find them on Tracy Campoli’s YouTube page. I really like how down to earth she is and I love that she has low impact stuff for us back challenged individuals.

Here is my playlist of some of my favorites.

Hope you are all having a great Wednesday! The weekend is almost here!!

30 Day Shred

So it is the first day of summer vacation and what am I doing??

Letting this woman kick my booty that's what!!

Please excuse how hideous I look!  I was about to die people...cut me some slack LOL ;)

What was I thinking? Oh I know I am sick of my flabby self and want my old body back is what I was thinking!

I have to modify some of the moves because of my back but only like two the rest I did with little issue and I am doing the low impact lady as well cause I don't want to undo everything the chiropractor has done over the last three years! 

But dang you sweat and feel it immediately no matter what lady you follow! It is intense and no breaks. Well when an elderly boston terrier keeps needing potty breaks I guess you have to take a break and pause Jillian, but I walked in place at the door til she was done! 

Tilda wanted to "workout" with Mommy as well! LOL Tilda I think your doing it wrong ;)

I also bought a couple other videos at movie stop to try after this one so I don't get bored! Bub might join me for the Billy Bootcamp!!

And since it is the end of Jr High today and Bub was "cough, cough" sick!

 Here is Bub from Kindergarten, 6th grade graduation, First day of 7th and 8th grade and then yesterday at my nephews 6th grade graduation!

His baby face is gone and he looks like such a young man now ← insert sad Mom face! Stop Growing Child!!!!!

Happy Wednesday!!

Exercise Exercise It's So Good For You

Anyone else remember that song from Elmocize. 

LOL 

My son was obsessed with sesame street when he was little and I must have watched that VHS tape a bazillion times.

With all the yummy food I have been making it means more treadmill time for me.

But that's okay it gives me time to catch up on my YouTube subscriptions. Young Wild And Polished is hilarious if you haven't checked out her channel you should. She makes my workouts a little more bearable. 

Defeated

I started my morning off on the treadmill.

I am hoping doing a little more walking will help my back and my headaches. If I loose a couple pounds that will be a added bonus.

After my little workout I decided to tackle the oil spot in the garage.  My car had a bad leak for a while but we got it fixed for the most part and the rug that was under my car was nasty so I threw it out and googled how to clean up the oil residue underneath it. I put down some litter and a little bit of dry laundry detergent and let it sit while I worked on the guest room some more.

First up moving my white dresser that I have had since I was a teenager from that space in the garage to the hallway. I had to vacuum the heck out of it first.

That thing is a beast. Thank goodness for those furniture mover things.

Next I went and moved all the random stuff that still needed to be organized in front of the closet so I could rearrange furniture.

Ughhhhh I seriously wanted to close the door and call it a day at this point.

But I still had the beast to deal with.

Tilda was a big help not. I got the dresser turned how I wanted it in the room then moved it to the hallway and realized.

HOUSTON WE HAVE A PROBLEM.

It took a lot of maneuvering to get it into the hallway.

I finally got it where it needed to be and went to move the book shelf and I think the pictures are self explanatory.

It literally went from one shelf falling to the whole thing collapsing in a matter of minutes.

I went and got my ole friend skinny cow and took a deep breath. May have said a few choice words!!

Stacked everything that I had not sorted and closed the door.

DEFEATED

Then I walked back to the garage and decided to punish myself some more.

Swept up the litter/detergent concoction.

Then put some more detergent down and sprayed it with water and scrubbed with a toothbrush because I could not find my scrub brush. Seriously who did I tick off today!!

All clean and with the old rug down from Bub’s room in case we have anymore oil mishaps.

That’s a wrap!!

My body can’t take anymore today.

Where is my Motrin and heating pad.

I hope you had a more relaxing Tuesday.

Not Fair

I am here sweating to death

Look to my left and Ginger is here knocked out cold

Not Fair I tell ya.
