Can’t wait to check out what everyone else is pinning. Go get some pinning done!
This weekend started off with more snow, in which I ended up pulling a muscle in my back using my snow plow, so it was a very low-key weekend for me. I went shopping, duh even with a bad back this can be accomplished though I do not recommend it. I ended up having to bend down and breathe deeply in the middle of the mall, till the pain subsided. I got a few weird looks for that one! Oh well! Sunday was spent prepping all my food for the week. Spring is coming and summer not to far behind so time to get my beach body ready!!
1. I have been looking for a new purse for months, I wanted something with pockets on the outside for my phone and I actually wanted black or brown since I don’t switch purses based on outfits. Then I saw this beauty and couldn’t resist…Yellow is my favorite color!
2. Shoe shopping was next and these were not what I was looking for but at 70% off I couldn’t resist. Love them!!
3. My back was really acting up after that shopping trip and so it was a lazy night with a heating pad, wine and a movie. That movie getting me laughing every time.
4. Sunday was even more lazy. I didn’t leave the house all day. Took a few naps and some pain pills. Seamus woke me up with his heavy breathing and death stare. I think he wanted more food. Isn’t he so adorable?!
5. Sunday is my meal prep day so I had my steak in the crock pot, chicken in the oven then I steamed a bunch of veggies. I love starting the week with one less thing to worry about.
What did you do this weekend? Would love to hear from you.
Linking up with Sami at Sami’s Shenanigans and Leann at Join the Gossip .
Dear Snow – I think we should break-up, it’s not me it’s YOU! Dear Plow truck driver – Think you might want to do the road instead of the breakdown lane? Maybe then we won’t need the breakdown lane….m’kay, thanks! Dear Friday – I love you! If only it’s because it means that I get to live in my yoga pants all weekend. I may even try to get some workouts in. Dear New Purse – Oh how I have been searching everywhere for you. It took me months and many stores but I finally found you! I was looking for a purse with outside pockets for my phone and my ipod so I can quickly pull them out for workouts, and the fact that yellow is my favorite color was just the icing on the cake! I shall wear you proudly. Dear 50 Shades of Grey – You disappoint me. It took me like a year to finally read the series and while I am only beginning the third book I was quite disappointed. Women were supposedly running over each other to get this book, meme’s were created stating the repopulation of America over how steamy these books were supposed to be. It was pretty tame compared to other books I have read. This doesn’t mean I didn’t like them, just I was expecting more due to the hype. Dear New Recipe Books – Look forward to creating some new healthy dishes, like orange chicken, pineapple, zucchini kabobs? That just might happen. Dear Stress Induced stomach-ache – I can’t believe how much you smacked me down on Wednesday, but I promise to take better care of myself and just might actually do some yoga in my yoga pants. Just kidding! I will try to stress less though, with some wine!
Peace out peeps! Enjoy the weekend. Go on over to The Sweet Season for the linkup!

This week I am not going to the gym!! Say what?! I live at the gym. Unfortunately my gym is currently a source of stress rather than a source of release. The gym has had an influx of New Years resolution gym goers and has yet to die down. While I love that people are deciding to get healthy and are continuing to go to the gym, my gym just is not designed with that many people to be in one small space. Or should I say parking spaces!
I had to drive around in circles three times to find a parking spot last week and I just had enough. I want to work off my stress not create more. So I am working out at home until I can research a few more gyms in my area. I have a ton of Beachbody programs to use in the meantime and I luckily have a home gym that gives me the space to do my workouts. I will be using a mix of Insanity, Turbo Fire, and Les Mills Combat to get the heart rate up and will also be using my free weights as well. With that I thought I would share my shoulder workout I will be incorporating to build my arms up for the spring/summer. Tank top season is coming!!
I will be doing this workout 2x a week:
Arnold Dumbell Press – 3 sets of 12 reps
Remember form is key, go heavy enough to really push yourself but not too heavy that you lose the proper form. Modify when you have to, use the equipment you have.
*Disclaimer I am not a personal trainer. I am sharing what exercises I have used and will be using. Seek a trainer if you have any concerns on proper technique or form. Use at your own risk.
