CrossFit Day 2

As you know, I won a CrossFit membership back in September. Now that Nolan is 10 weeks old, Christmas is over and it's a new year, I thought that it was time to hit it up. I went on Thursday morning and apparently Eric wanted to take it easy on me and did an "easy" workout. Ha! I don't think easy and CrossFit go together. It was hard, but it felt great. My legs were already sore by that afternoon. I felt pretty good when I woke up yesterday but the stiffness and pain got worse as the day wore on. Didn't think I was going to make it today, but Christien and I were both there for 1030. Another tough work out today. Nice introduction for Christien :) We are going to work out together. Christien is going to try to do one  night a week plus Saturday. I'm going to stick to Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. We might try to get a sitter for a week night workout together every once in awhile. They did a PhysioGraph on both of us that turned up some interesting information. Can wait to redo it in a month. It's going to be tough but fun!!

The Happiness Project

Happy New Year! Our book club read The Happiness Project by Gretchen Rubin a few years ago. I've always said that I wanted to tackle in, in my life. Not that I am unhappy at all, but, like she says in her book, "I am happy, but I'm not as happy as I should be... I have such a good life and I want to appreciate it more". That basically sums it up. I want to appreciate my life and those in it more then I currently do. I'm very excited to start this project.

Saturday is my day of resolutions. Christien was gone for New Years Eve and Day, so I really feel like I want to start 2013 with him by my side. We're going to do at least a 1 week South Beach detox, and I'm actually starting CrossFit tomorrow. Christien is going to come with me on Saturday and we're going to see if we can set something up, membership wise, for him so that this will be our thing to do together. I can't wait.

Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and New Year! Cheers to 2013!
