I Am Java Mama

I think I am going to skip NaBloPoMo in March. I will still post regularly, but sometimes I'm busy and tired, and I just don't have anything to say! Like tonight! It's already 11:00 PM and I still have to post this blog and take a photo.

I'm going to play some Guitar Hero with my husband now... I will probably take a pic of him playing the cheesy fake guitar. Haha.

A few little updates. I might have to put C25k on hold for a bit. Too much snow and slush, not a lot of clear roads. I don't know. We'll see. I'm still pretty excited about doing it, so don't take that to mean I am procrastinating, I'm not!

I'm thinking about buying Wii Fit. It's kind of expensive, but it seems like it would be fun, and another way to exercise. I've been wanting it for a while.

And, on May 15th our local flight training center at the county airport is hosting a Learn to Fly day!! It's basically an open house, with information, seminars, contests, and discounted discovery flights! you ave to get tickets, but they are free. They are available March 1st and I can't wait!

Well, hopefully I will be more in the mood to write tomorrow. I need to get caught up on all my favorite blogs, too! I haven't had a chance to visit them for a while. I need some relaxing, blog reading "me" time!

Yes, I totally titled today's blog post with a NKOTB song. SO? It's fitting. Remember my post yesterday? I think I had an o.k. first day. Not the best, but it's a start.

First of all, I have decided to take Christie's advice and try the Couch to 5k program. I've heard of this before, one of my co-workers did it. I'm pretty excited. I've been downloading music for my mp3 player, and I'm going to buy a spiffy new pair of running shoes this weekend. I might try the first few days without the running shoes, since there isn't a whole lot of running yet.

I've had a killer headache all day, and didn't start yet, but I'm going to. Either tomorrow or Thursday!

I am also going to start going to Yoga again. I haven't gone in a while, and I LOVE Yoga, but never did it consistently enough. Hopefully that will change!

I feel like I need to ween myself off of the Mountain Dew. If I quit it cold turkey, I will have massive headaches, trust me, I've tried it before. I had half a can today, but that was it! Which is amazing for me. I also had 2 cups of black coffee and... oh, yeah... a jelly donut. Well, baby steps, right?? Besides, it's Fat Tuesday, I was at my parents for breakfast and they were practically shoving it down my throat. Haha.

For lunch I had a Salad!! AND WATER! Excited about the water. I drank a whole bottle of water! I did have a chocolate covered pretzel after the salad... but only one!! I plan on drinking more water throughout the day, of course. Possible another sip or two of Mt. Dew.

I work tonight, so I will be getting my Starbucks Latte. But I am going to drink a bottle of water after, instead of the bottle of Mt. Dew I would normally drink.

For dinner, I plan on having sushi. It's super healthy, and I LOVE sushi.

I'm a little disappointed that I didn't get any exercise today, but I feel like I am making progress, and it's only day 1 after all!

As for the smoking thing, I'm not ready to tackle that just yet. But I feel like I will be ready very, very soon. I'm giving it more serious thought than I have in a long time. So that's a good sign.

I just really, really hope this headache goes away. It's a hormonal headache, probably a menstrual migraine, I get them every month and it suuuucks, because I can never find anything that works on these monsters.

Thanks everyone for your advice and encouragement!
