2. I wish I could help these homeless people but there are so many – I often give them muffins on my way to work on Monday – that’s my way of giving.
3. The weekend started with a fall. I fell on my way home Friday night – I was walking through the park after work and I hit a patch of black ice. I managed to stop myself from falling, but I twisted my ankle a bit. I put some ice as soon as I got home.
4. Went to see my osteopath on Sunday who confirmed that I had a small sprain to my right ankle. She helped a lot because as of yesterday, I am almost pain free! She did suggest to wait a few days before going to the gym though...
5. As I needed to give my ankle a rest, I tried for the first time P90X. Did the abdominal dvd (which is only 15 minutes). I thought to myself, 15 minutes, I can do this… It was the longest 15 minutes!! I can only imagine how hard the other dvds of P90X are! I am in pain every time I laugh now!!!
6. I am challenging myself to do this dvd or another abs dvd once a week until the Summer. Not that I am hoping to get into a bikini…!
7. Saturday, we had our first BBQ of the season! As you can see, there was still some snow on the ground – but we were in the mood for burgers!! Even though we ate them inside – they were sooooo good!
8. I started working on Week 2 of MLK’s photography class. One of the assignment is to find color – pretty hard to find when Spring hasn’t started and there is no green nor flowers!
9. Went for a short walk yesterday morning before work (since I couldn’t go to the gym) to try to find some color – managed to find a few things but was frozen by the time I got back inside – brrrrrr!
10. Tuesday is Weight Watchers weigh-in day. Gained a little less than half a pound (.4). Not happy about it but all I can do is try to do better next week!

I recently saw an ad for the P90X (I believe) - looks like an intense program - but a bit pricey. Sorry about the sprain, but all things considered, it could have been worse and gives you an excuse to focus on a different work out. I understand that changing it up actually tricks the body and results in greater weight loss.
You are a kind person to share muffins with the homeless - far better than a penny for a smile.
Wow! What a list of things you've been doing. Hope your ankle feels better soon. I know a few people doing P90X. Sounds pretty intense. I think you're kind to share your muffins, too. :)
Ouch about the ankle! Hope you heal fast! I have no idea what a P90X is! I'm going to google it after this. . . . First I thought it was a new camera, then a computer, then a workout video????
We're hoping to have burgers on our grill this weekend too! The heck with winter!
Sorry about your ankle! I remember when we had pretty bad ice back in December. I fell over in the exact same spot 3 times on my way home from school. Luckily I was OK but you would think I would learn eh?!
Mmmmmm burgers... drool. They always taste so much better on the BBQ. I am still in the process of persuading my parents to buy a BBQ.... it isn't working...lol
There is NO WAY I could do 15 minutes of abs at a time! When I moved to the city people always told me not to give to the homeless because they would just spend it on alcohol. But one time a guy asked me for change and I didn't have any. I said, "I don't have change, but do you want these two beers?" I showed him two unopened bottles I happened to have with me and he said, "No thanks. I don't drink."
Oh and I'm sorry about your ankle! Definitely makes it harder to work out. :-(
