All of the days are kind of running together now and instead of eagerly awaiting the weekend, I can’t wait for the weekend to be over.
Hubby works from home so he’s here most of the time and I’d rather do errands/fun stuff with the kids/workout, during the week when a majority of the rest of the world has to work.
I did however try out SUP yoga on Saturday! I was ecstatic to finally try it out, but nervous at the same time and then about halfway through the session, I got seasick. UGHHHHH! As much as yoga is about accepting where you are right now, in that moment I seriously hated my body. When I think about it now, I can absolutely see how I would get motion sick. The flowing between poses, the shaking of the board in the water, the sun beating down on me. I was pretty disappointed though that something I looked forward to so much, made me sick. I spent the second half of the class in and out of the water, in and out of poses, trying to continue, but also trying to keep the sickness at bay. Then I spent the car ride home, trying to recover. I came home, took a shower and napped it off for a couple of hours. 🙁 While I still want to take just a SUP class, I think I’ll stick to doing yoga on solid ground. It’s not relaxing if I have to take a pill before I go out and hope that it works. I’m still holding out hope that paddle boarding without the yoga won’t be as bad. I might take a dramamine beforehand just in case. 😛
We have exactly 4 weeks of summer left here. *sad face*
Well, mostly a sad face. The kids are getting tired of each other, they’re getting restless, they need more to do, but they also just want to be lazy bums.
There’s been WAY too much movie watching and game playing for my taste. They started sleeping in a lot and then just lounging in their rooms until lunchtime. I know it’s summer time and all, but being that lazy was just not gonna cut it. So last week, hubby gave the kids morning chores to do. And by chores I mean…come downstairs, EAT breakfast (yes they were skipping because they were sleeping late and then lounging around upstairs), get dressed, make their bed, feed/water the dog, take dog for a short walk.
The first few days were done without complaint. The teen, who’s trying to show responsibility because she wants a guinea pig, was happily up early and doing ALL the chores (even ones her brother was supposed to be helping on).
Over the weekend she asked if they could slack off on their chores for the weekend and we let them sleep a little later.
Today though, neither of them wanted to get up and the teen was all, “it’s so hot and humid out there…do I have to take Lucy for a walk?!”. *sigh* It’s no hotter than it’s been the last few days and the longer you complain, the hotter it gets outside!
When she realized I wasn’t letting her out of the walk, she came downstairs dressed…
in black skinny jeans…
Seriously?
Teens are weird
Or maybe it’s just mine
and because a blog post without a picture is against my religion, here are my Jamberry nails I’ve been rocking for the past few days…aren’t they purdy?!
How was your weekend?
