Time to Add Content

i know i’ve been pretty bad about actually writing the content for this site, but i’ve added some stuff to the static pages of the site. i hope to get more content delivered, some of the content needs to be updated a bit, and i’ve only got two pages copied over from older versions of the site (About and Football).

i’ve got some additional pages in mind and hopefully will be able to get those created soon. until then, enjoy what i’ve got up there now – at least all three of my main pages have some sort of content and not just a filler video or flickr feed :)

Insanity Update: i’m not sure when i’ll be able to get back into insanity – i’m out of town next week too. i’ll get er dun when i can and i’ll let you know. send me a kick in the shorts and get me motivated again, i’d sure appreciate it.

Insanity – Getting Back Into the Mix

so memorial day weekend has come and gone. and an extra day off on both sides of the break and now it’s time to get back into the fray! i didn’t know where to start coming back, today is the thursday workout that i did last week before the break (the Max Recovery workout). so i did the Cardio Abs workout today. it’s a quick one and i did not do it as much as i should’ve the first month. i’ll start with day 40 tomorrow and get back into Max workouts (eek!). sad thing is, i still find myself dripping with sweat.

the holiday break for me was nice and relaxing. i went up to the cabin to get some fishing in – pretty low key weekend. j and the wife stayed back and so did cocoa. i got a bunch of fishing in (caught a lot of largemouth bass and small pikes, but not the crappies and walleyes we were looking for). and even slept in a couple days :)

it’s good to be back though; i missed being away from the family – even though it was just a couple days.

inspirational quote of the day:
“Our truest life is when we are in dreams awake.”
– Henry David Thoreau

Insanity Hiatus

i know everyone is super excited to read about how pathetic i feel during my workouts everyday, but this next month is crazy busy with traveling for work and, well, summer stuff. for instance, this weekend i’m taking a “Me Weekend” (even though the wife needs a Me Month more than i need a Me Weekend), leaving the entire family behind (even Cocoa) and going to the cabin/shack to celebrate the Memorial Weekend with the extended family. i’m positive the pup is very displeased with this plan of attack.

with that being said, i will not be able to get the insanity workouts in – i will be plenty active, so i’m fine with that portion of the agenda. the big question is: “what do i do when i come back?” where do i start back up with the insanity workouts? i’ll be back Tuesday night, so Wednesday AM, do i go back and re-suck at the last Wednesday workout? i think that’s what i’ll do. like i told Julie a couple days back, i don’t know what Shaun T would suggest, but this is what i’m doing. i’ll be gone various 3-4 day stints in June, so i’m not sure how this will affect my insanity workouts other than that it will. gotta stay flexible like a Romanian gymnast.

so until then, enjoy the beautiful weather (if you’re in the midwest), get outside, wet a line and most importantly, thank a serviceman/woman for giving us a reason to celebrate this weekend!
