Last night i got home and heard all kinds of calamity going on next door. I thought to myself "Great now i have to listen to all that commotion all night." I went on about my business and tried not to be the nosey neighbor. Well, we all know that didn't last too long!! I was in the bedroom upstairs and couldn't help look out the window to see what it was they were doing. To my great and happy surprise they were replacing an old fence!! My heart did a flip flop pitter patter as i pondered, what were they going to do with all the wonderfully worn wood???
I watched
First attempt. FAIL.
Second attempt. Better i actually talked to them to see if they could give me an estimate on how much it would cost me to have my fence fixed. FAIL.
Third attempt. I told him my name, the only logical reason i could ponder for going out yet a third time, and asked what they would be doing with the old wood they were tearing down. He said "TRASH." My heart jumped and i did it!! I actually asked if i could have some!! I know this sounds so trivial to most. This was a huge step for me with an epic WIN!! I now have a pile of old wood laying in my back yard and the possibilities are endless! So glad i went out for a third conversation. I feel i grew a little more confident as well. My first ever junkin' experience was heart racing, the rush was indescribable!
I completed my canvas as well. It didn't turn out exactly how i wanted but for my first time it wasn't too bad. No pictures because i have no idea how to attach them to this post yet. :(
I thought on my way to work today that i need a new play list for my work outs. How maybe that would get me motivated to get off my rather muscle-less rump and work out. I am tired of running up the stairs only to feel every movement twice because things are bouncy that shouldn't be. So i googled (my fave pass time these days) top work out songs of 2012. According to "HUFFPOST HEALTHY LIVING" there are several things that factor into a workout play list. Taste, beats per minute, and duration. I feel a workout play list is a crucial part of my work out. it helps my endurance and enjoyment without a doubt! Not to mention if its a real go getter my intensity is higher!
Its a very personal list for sure! Mine varies so much! I like so many different genres. When working out i may start my warm up with Journey Faithfully, then to Kesha to get my beat on, then to Disturbed and to cool off maybe some Rascal Flats. Of course there are several others in the mix as well. I have to have a good beat to get me going and to keep me there lol
Here is the first list that "HUFFPOST HEALTHY LIVING" has for us as "Best Workout Songs of 2012":
- Xoxo - Cherub
- Climax - Usher
- Rack City - Tyga
- Let Me Love You - Ne-yo
- Transport - Lolove
There are the first five. Usher and Tyga are a few of my faves for sure! Ne-yo is good and the others i will have to research (not sure I've ever heard of them).
Whatever your taste. Lets get our sweat on!!
Trash and Sweat and of course...
Dreams xoxo
