Since it was a pretty quiet and uneventful cold winter week, I only have a few things to write about this Thankful Thursday.
1. The weather this week has been very very cold and a couple days a little icy. Ya’ll know I don’t like the winter anyway, but I very much hate having to drive in the snow and ice. I get very very tense! (yea I know…a lot of ‘very’s) So when my husband offered to give me a massage (with his strong manly hands) across my shoulders, neck and lower back to relieve my stress, I immediately accepted! I tell him all the time that he should go into the masseuse business 🙂
2. I never really paid attention to holidays before, specifically being off work for them becos I didn’t work full time. But now that I am, I am paying more attention. I knew about the major holidays like Christmas, Thanksgiving, July 4th, etc., but I had a nice surprise when I saw on my schedule that I had Martin Luther King Day off from work. I like getting paid for not working. haha Our youngest daughter works at a university and had it off and my husband is still on seasonal layoff so we all went out for a delicious Mexican lunch in the city. It was like old times just the 3 of us hanging out 🙂
3. Guess what? I told myself that I need to work out even on the days that I work 10 hours. So yesterday, even tho it was a quick one, I did a 15 minute HIIT workout AFTER work! Baby steps. Today I have the day off so I did a 20 minute HIIT workout followed by an hour of lifting weights with Chalene Johnson.
Ok, that is all for this week. Oh, one more thing that I was tickled about! The days are getting ‘longer’ in that it doesn’t get dark as early so soon I won’t have to drive home in the dark. Spring is coming! Yay!
