Hi Ho, Hi Ho, It's off to the Gym I go...

Woo Hoo! I changed up my plan for my workout today and headed to the gym instead since Holly and I did not make it yesterday afternoon.

I got up this morning, fixed myself a really yummy breakfast. I've seen where people make omelets using asparagus and cheese as there filling. It just did not sound all that appetizing to me, but low and behold, I decided to be brave and try it with the leftover asparagus I had from a couple nights ago and it was REALLY good!

I've spent most of my morning, blessing my home. I want to start on my spring cleaning, so basically, today was de-cluttering, putting things away, wiping down my kitchen counters, washed my floor rugs (after washing the material for Holly to make my PJs and Purse). Will soon go out and work some more. I want to gather all of Holly's mess, put it into a basket and take it to her room for her to take care of properly. She's got more shoes (flip flops) then any person I know! And, they all tend to be at our front door.

I fixed a yummy, low call lunch for me and hubby. Watched a bit of TV with him while he was home then started in cleaning up after lunch before I decided to head to the gym instead of doing a workout video. I didn't work out as long as I initially planned but was feeling pretty good about my workout anyway. My legs were/are still a bit on the jello side from the workout a couple days ago. :)

"Blessing my home"... you must be a flybaby :) I learned so much on my time as a flybaby, but I couldn't get through 20 emails a day - drove me nuts! But thank goodness for Flylady!

Hope you know what I'm talking about.

Anyway, your workout sounds killer! Great job :)
