Starting my workouts

Thursday, July 12, 2012

I started going back to my workouts the other day. The first DVD I start with is called Core Secrets with Brooke Burke. She demonstrates ten of Gunnars best basic exercise to work your body from head to toe. He hits every major muscle group in a sequence per strenght training moves. Its a lot of fun and work at the same time.

Glenna Jean Riley

Another baby shower in the family. It's so important not to outdo one baby shower for the next if its in the family. Some people can be so jealous of others when it comes to the set up for the party and who's invited. Besides a few little extras we decided to give basically the same thing to one niece as we did the other. By going with Glenna Jean Riley and leaving a few options for the future I think they're both really happy with our presents.

Hot work

So hot again today, my husband worked out in the sun all day at his work doing concrete siding on elementary school in Syracuse. The boss brought them  the wrong kind of aerial lift so it was a little hard to get to the levels that they wanted to not to mention at the edge of the school there was a hill they had to go down which is very steep. Not so safe.

Skid steers for sale

Wednesday, July 11, 2012

After having three estimates on the work we needed done on our old farm that we had bought we had never realized how much money it would cost to fill the back area behind the barn. We had enough gravel on hand we just needed to move it from one part of the property to the other. Instead of paying for a contractor to do the work we looked into skid steers for sale. We found a used one for only three thousand dollars more than what the contractor was going to charge us.  So we think its a win win situation.

Painting the bottom of the boat

My husband never realized before buying our boat how long it would take to scrape the bottom for repainting. After spending three days of scraping he went to get the primer an d the paint and discovered with his many coats that he needs to put on it is going to cost over four hundred dollars and a lot more time to do it.

Sports trophies

Monday, July 9, 2012

Its so much fun watching my son grow up. The unique ways that he learns things has some of his friends baffled. He seems to be a little me already. My friend came over the other day with her little one. The first thing that the little guy went after was my husband's sports trophies. My son ran over and told the little one don't touch those my daddy will get mad.

Hot weather

We're finally out of the heat wave I hope. This week the temperatures are in the mid 80's that's still too hot. But last week in the mid 90's in Central New York is unheard of.  You can't even go outdoors without a ton of sun screen on.
