Jumping on all kinds of wagons!

Well, friends, check me out! Two posts in 48 hours! That is what I’m talking about!

I just wanted to write a quick post about some things that I’ve been planning for myself.

1. Tomorrow marks the beginning of my n00b tennis lessons. That’s right, I’m taking tennis 101. The way I see it, it will be a good workout, and it would be pretty darn adorable to be able to play with my hubs. So, I’m going to give it a shot and see if I like it.

(tennis doesn’t look like this—>)

2. Sometime after tennis is over, I think I’m going to go ahead and get a month’s membership at the yoga hut. I visited on Labor Day and it was a wonderful (albeit 3 hour) experience, and I can’t wait to go back.

3. This month was “no scale September” for me, which means that I haven’t looked at the number on the scale for a whole month! I’m actually looking forward to getting up there on October 1st after a whole month of calorie tracking and being pretty active. I’ve been maintaining throughout the whole summer with only a small fluctuation following my trip to Spain.

4. I’m about ready to start my 30 day challenge again! (who knows, maybe it will be an annual thing) The challenge includes blogging once a day, and previously doing the 30 day shred everyday for 30 days. So, the question will be do I try to do the shred everyday except tennis lessons and make it an October challenge? Or do I make myself do the shred and tennis? Who knows. I’m still ironing out the kinks.

5. I’ve been a reading fool since graduating lately and I’m really getting back on track with my 25 books in 2009 challenge that I took on in February. I’m really enjoying the Percy Jackson series (just finished the second one), and I look forward to cracking open the new Dan Brown (don’t gag ) as well as the 2nd in the Sookie Stackhouse series.

6. Running! I am still doing some soul searching about running. As you may know, I never ended up running that 10k that I was training for in July. I’m not sure if it was lack of dedication, lack of fitness, or both, but somehow, it just didn’t feel right. In other news, running is a source of relaxation and reflection for me, and running on a training plan and squeezing out miles really stresses me out. If I can go out and run 3 miles with a smile on my face vs.. going out and striving for 5 and hurting myself/getting mad/resenting my runs/stressing about numbers… maybe that should be my goal. 

That is about it for now. Gonna nod off reading some of The Titan’s Curse, and getting ready for another Monday! Leave me a comment and let me know you’ve not all abandoned me! haha. Goodnight!
