So…I made a mistake while watching Project Runway this week…I watched with my husband…. Here’s the problem…he laughed every time that Tim Gunn spoke. DON’T DISS THE GUN! That behavior is going to have to change if he expects to watch with me in the future… Anyway- here are my thoughts on week two… 1)…
Sunday School started again today…which is a good thing… It makes me get out of the house, I get time to just go to church and chill, and then it’s straight off to the YMCA, since we’re already half-way there! Today at the Y I did 35 minutes on the elliptical, 20 minutes on the…
The bad news, I’ve been slacking on the blog… The good news, I haven’t been slacking on the exercise! Today I went on a beautiful 7.2 mile bike ride through the wilderness of Orange/Seminole County…basically, the area behind my subdivision…before we yuppies moved in…. Here’s a quick wrap: Time on bike: 58 minutes Distance on…
My random thoughts while watching the season premiere: 1) You can’t cry during the first challenge…it’s just not going to go well for you. 2) I’m not sure standing on your head to come up with a red-carpet design is going to do the trick…but you go with your geometric shape crap… 3) I love…
My name is Jen Cook and it’s been two weeks since I’ve been through a drive-through. Trust me, that is progress! Yes, I miss my Filet-O-Fish, but I’m proud that I’ve been able to step away from it and the oh-so-yummy french fries.
The world has lost a legend today, film director John Hughes. I know it’s silly, I didn’t know the guy, but I felt like I did. He truly touched my life…in so many different ways. John Hughes was born in Lansing, Michigan (ironically, where I went to College!!!) and his family moved to Illinois right…
Ten miles on the bike this morning…not bad. I believe I can do more- but this humidity is killing me. I can’t wait for some cooler weather! I’m debating doing an “organized” bike ride in October. In my head I have no problems signing up for the 50 mile ride…but after just 10 miles, I…
Yes, he is that hot in person. Since my brush with my boyfriend, Patrick Dempsey, everyone asks me that…and yes people..DUH…the answer is YES! Let me set the scene… I work at a television station in Orlando. We are 24-hour news, and have a “sister-station” that is 24-hour sports. People working for the sports channel…
I’ve been neglecting my blog…and for that matter…myself. It’s been a whirlwind of a month so far…and I’m so not in the mood to do anything except sleep. Honestly, I am tired, beat, wore out and exhausted. Let’s see…last we left off I was working out daily, eating better…and then I went on vacation. We…
Another 6am YMCA visit…MUSCLE TONING….yippie!! I’ve become one with the barbell- but for the life of me, I can’t understand the exercise ball! In theory, the primary benefit of exercising with an exercise ball as opposed to exercising directly on a hard flat surface is that the body responds to the instability of the ball…
