Instead of catching up on some blogs while watching the Today Show I decided to head over to they gym. So glad I did! I had the entire place to myself (until the end) and it was quite sweat and grunt inducing.
- Stair Master, hills/intervals, 30 minutes level 3
- Butterfly (30 lbs, 3 sets of 10)
- Shoulder Press (20 lbs, 3 sets of 10)
- Chest Press (60 lbs, 3 sets of 1o)
- Tricep Press (60 lbs, 3 sets of 10)
- Bicep Curl (30 lbs, 3 sets of 10)
- Lat Pull Down (60 lbs, 2 sets of 10)
- Decline Crunches (100)
- Hip Flexor Machine (50 lbs, 3 sets of 10/ side)
- Calf Raises (3 sets of 10)
I absolutely LOVE using the Stair Master because I work pretty hard on it and always am dripping sweat at the end. I love that feeling! I was also going to hop on the elliptical for a little more cardio at the end, but someone else came in and it was in use. No worries! Thinking of going for an after dinner walk, or maybe doing some squats and additional ab/ oblique work during a tv show tonight.
Lunch was last night’s leftover black bean soup. (Anyone else love drinking out of mason jars? It’s my husband’s favorite way to consume beverages!)

On the side I had this Flat Out Fold it Flatbread in Rosemary & Olive Oil flavor. My mom gave us a couple to try because she and my dad love them for sandwiches. Today I just folded mine up and toasted it, and dipped it piece by piece in the soup.

As I was taking pictures I realized I never showed you guys my new “congrats on your new job” Vera purse my parents gave me over the weekend! It’s in the Morgan purse style and I believe the color is called Rhapsody in Blue (which the music nerd in me loves! Check out this Fantasia video if you’re unsure what I mean). I adore the pockets on the front of the purse. Perfect for cell phones!

Now I’m off to go run some errands. I need a comfortable pair of “dressy flats” for work, because I have a feeling I’m going to be on my feet a lot.
By the way – thanks for your suggestions on all things blisters/ blister prevention! Check out the comments in that post, there are a couple good suggestions!
Don’t forget to keep voting for the Good Mood Gig! It seems a bit of a long shot, but I know if we spread the word and get votes like we did before, it’s totally possible! Don’t forget to vote for the other girls too. All for one and one for all.


I bought those new flat out things for my hubby and he is loving them! I am not so much a bread fan, so I haven’t tried one. And don’t give up on the gig!!
LOVE the bag, and you know I am voting for you every day! I have a really cute old Vera that is red that one of my clients gave me. I’d love a blue one or PINK (the best color ever…) man they are cute!
I also want a Lily dress to make me a true Florida girl! Do you have one?
At our wedding we served lemonade and sweet tea in mason jars before the ceremony
Good luck with the shoe search!
Whoa, whoa, whoa. Where have I been? I have yet to see or hear about these Flat Out Fold it creations. I need to find these soon, they totally have my name written all over it.
Awesome job at the gym today girl!
I haven’t seen those flat out fold it’s yet! They look good.
The new purse is very cute!
George Gershwin = love. I have the Smithsonian Collection – its such a shame he died so young. Gershwin, Mozart, Schubert – tragic.
I love those flat out wraps!
Cute purse!
I’ve still got a feeling you can pull it out! I’ve been voting every day!
I really want a Vera purse! I love yours–the pockets are great. I spy a Cliff bar
CUTE BAG!!! And what sweet parents you’ve got
We drink out of mason jars all the time! Got a couple sets of mason jar drinking glasses in the cabinet right now!
