Herding Cats

Wednesday: weights, 1.2 mile treadmill walk

Well, it only took me 30 minutes to get this sweet angel in the cat carrier so I could move her to her new home. And she only hissed at me about a billion times.

The one on the left is my cat, Scurry. Phillip is on the right, he belongs to my former roommate.

She actually came out of the cat carrier very easily and seemed very interested in checking out her new surroundings. I was expecting her to just go straight under the bed and hide for the rest of 2013.

We are allowing her to adjust in peace in the guest bedroom. We will eventually introduce the other animals, but that plan is still in the works.

After the big move, we headed to the gym for a weight workout.

There's nothing I love more than going to the gym at 8 p.m. or later every night.
Maybe eventually we'll get the timing thing figured out a little better.

I actually had a fairly short workout last night, but HTB's was rather long. After I finished up my weights I jumped on the treadmill for a walk. I only walked for a few reasons:

1) I didn't feel like getting sweaty (lame, I know)
2) I needed steps on the pedometer so I didn't want to get on the elliptical (not quite as lame)
3) I had old running shoes on without my inserts so I couldn't run (the least lame excuse)

Tonight's plan is cardio, cardio, cardio!

And hoping the cat has forgiven me for moving her again!

Random News Wednesday

Tuesday: 3.65 mile treadmill run


It took every ounce of motivation I could muster yesterday to make myself walk straight to the gym after work and get on the treadmill.

But, I did it!

This has been one of those weeks that I am just absolutely exhausted.
As usual though, I didn't regret working out once I did it.

Since I've been so worn out this week and after my bout of illness Saturday evening, I decided not to work out in the mornings this week. I'm trying to be smart and listen to my body.
This is not always an easy task for me, but I'm trying!

I do miss the morning workouts, but I think my body is enjoying sleeping in until 6:30 a.m.!

I'm hoping to hit the weights after sorting out the kitchen in the old apartment tonight.
Kitchens are the hardest part to move!

I also get to move my 14 year old cat to our house tonight. This could get quite interesting!
Maybe I'll just bribe her with some catnip!

P.S. My wedding dress has arrived!!!!!! Yipeeeee!
