Zumba Heaven!

That's where I was today.  

I have sooooo missed Zumba since school ended in June.  I thought about it countless times this summer as I was dripping sweat on the floor, killing myself doing Jillian Michaels workouts.  Don't get me wrong, her workouts are great--she totally kicks my butt (and then some!) for 25 minutes, but it's just hard work.  It definitely pays off, but I yearned for the fun of Zumba.

I have been waiting with baited breath for 3:30 this afternoon!  It was every bit as fun as I remembered it--hot, stuffy gym and all.  Time just flies for that hour.  I find myself smiling as I'm sweating. :)  Let me just say, that NEVER happens, except apparently with Zumba.

What kind of exercise do you enjoy?!  Zumba, bike riding and hiking are the only forms of exercise that I really get excited about.  I desperately wish I could be a runner, but I SERIOUSLY detest running, so I'm sure that will never happen *sigh*.

Hasta la vista, peeps!

Wow! I am so bugged that I never post anymore. Facebook is just so much easier. I'll just keep it simple-- random data: today I had Pho (Vietnamese soup) for the first time and LOVED it!! Seriously, you haven't lived till you've tried it :) I created two and a half sketches of future layouts, and halfway finished two more layouts. really on a paper-scrapping frenzy! This is one sketch: I joined the Facebook group "I grew up in Fairfield, IL, and thought I would die of boredom (but I didn't)" :D ... you have to have grown up in a dinky town to "get it" had a "day off from life" hanging out at my in-laws house all day ... ahhh! gotta love days like that I can't believe it's almost June already

Feb Year In Review Layouts

Just a quick post tonight. It dawned on me a few days ago that I'm already behind in my "Year . In . Review" layouts, so I put February's together. Believe it or not, for such a simple concept, these layouts took about three hours combined. I couldn't believe it! Anyway, these photos depict the highlights of February. Maybe tomorrow I'll do March :) (I wonder how many hours that will take?!) Just in case you're wondering, Carlos is still sick--no fever, just a sore throat now. Hopefully he'll go back to school on Tuesday ('cause I need some "me" time before I turn into a monster, lol!). 'Cause as you all know, life is all about me, right ;) Happy Monday, y'all!

A Pleasant Surprise

So, I was just going about my business today--you know, life as usual, chores, kids, homework, dinner, etc., and I get a call from my husband around 8:00 p.m. that he's bringing a friend over to the house for dinner. I have met this friend a few times (Hi, Bobby!!), but we haven't seen each other for years (they live in San Francisco). After the initial excitement wore off (about three seconds later), I realized there's NO RICE in the house. That's a huge problem, considering he's Filipino and eats rice every day. So I made a quick Yoshinoya run, and pulled up in the driveway just before them. We had a great visit. The time just flew. We had a lot to catch up on. He is one of several high school and college friends that my husband still keeps in touch with. It is always mind-boggling to me that they all grew up together in the Philippines, yet several of them have made their way to California. Pretty cool, huh? This is the friend who graced us with his pre...
