To New Hope we go!
To not grow bored, one has to get out there and make the best of what's around. Say no more, to New Hope we go!
I've always been interested in New Hope. I've heard it's a quaint little town and there's great window shopping and lil oddities here and then. I love oddities - and antiques! What's not to like? So one boring day at work, internet access and Airbnb was all it took and VOILA! I booked all four of us a nice lil cottage in town for the weekend.
I am looking forward to having a few drinks, a few bites, ride the bikes that come with the cottage rental (big plus when I decided to rent this place), stroll around with my baby girls and mah man, and window shop galore. And who knows, maybe we will get to squeeze in some kind of tour. I love ghost tours and I have my eye on one! hehe.
Hopefully we'll get to go to a flea market too! The Golden Nugget is right around the corner from New Hope, so maybe.... just mayyyybe.
See you soon New Hope!

Because it's hard for me to let go of some things...
Yes, it is hard to let go of something that has ruined a perfectly scheduled vacation. I still can't believe this airline, which I will try to not mention its name any more, didn't want to work with us and just send us to another destination instead of the destination originally chosen by us. No budging with the money, no refunds, no year-long credit for the full amount, no re-routing, no nothing. It was just "fly with the hurricane" or we will take your money anyways.
YOU PIECE OF SHIT AIRLINE! GO FUCKING BURN IN HELL!

Funny...
Truth is, this ball makes crunches and certain types of exercises a bit easier on my back, so I figured, why the hells not?!?
Hopefully, I'll actually use this thing.

Work from home 2.0
New spin!
So now that my hands are tied when it comes to fitness “congregation” and looks like I either give my money to these fucking gyms or be un-toned for the rest of my life, I have thought of a third alternative. An alternative that not most of us are (or become) successful at.
Now, I am not an idealist, nor an optimistic kind of person. I know myself. I know my shortcomings, but… I think it’s worth a try.
I shall try working out from home.
Now that I’m more interested in this type of activity, maybe I will be more inclined (this time around, lol) to actually start it and keep up the workout routine when I get home from work. I mean… what better way and place to do this at. You are not tied to an actual schedule so you can arrive home 10 minutes late or even an hour late, so long as whenever you get home, you give yourself 20 to 30 minutes to do a quick work-out and go about the rest of your day right after.
I was browsing last night, thinking of how to attack this issue, and I found this FitGirls blog on Instagram about fit challenges and all that crazy stuff, and while I am not ready to spend $50 on e-books that I will have to read to be able to execute the fit plans, I did like that their Instagram had lil “notes” of short workouts to do at home. So… I will post those here as days go by.
Lets see how this one magnificent idea works out for me.
