Wow. Yesterday's workout kicked my butt. I was so achy this morning that it was hard to get out of bed (oh, yeah...getting up with the 1yo several times last night didn't help either). 
So what did I do? Another workout! I'm determined, people!
Today's workout, while shorter by 10 minutes, was still great. I burned nearly 187 calories and worked up a sweat (ew!). 
Day 2: 351 Days Left
My trainer was proud of me. Can you tell? Go me! 
Here are the exercises for today:

Pretty good workout, eh? My muscles say YES! 
I'll probably be taking the next two days off, simply because my body needs to rest. That and if my muscles are too sore, I won't be able to lift and carry my teething tyrannosaurus rex...
TIP: Remember to breathe when exercising! Sometimes you get so into the exercise that you forget! It's super important to breathe the right way. EASA 2 actually gives you advice about breathing, saying that you should exhale when you are doing something with force.

I have been trying to think of some more goals to add. I asked on WebAnswers what others thought. This is what I got so far:
  • Owning a home (done!)
  • Be debt free(In a year? Maybe I'll try! That would be nice. ) 
  • See another part of the world - ideally one that is very much the opposite of where you live, such as a 3rd world country (Hmm...not so much. With two kids and little income I don't think this will work. Someday, perhaps...)
  • Learn first aid (Done!)
  • Adopt a pet (save a life) (Done!)
  • Learn frugal living skills so that by the time you are 30 you only need to work 4 days a week and have more time to enjoy life (Well, I'm a SAHM and my husband is a dean of students at a school...Not so sure this would apply.)
  • Touch snow, the ocean, a newborn calf (All done!) 
  • Learn another language (Done. Spanish. I would like to learn Italian though...)
  • Make $25 per day on WebAnswers (Perhaps! I might work on this one...)
Have any other suggestions for me? I'd love to hear them! 

WAIT! Some more suggestions just came in. I'm not even going to ask what was going on in his head...

1. Catch a fish 
2. Steal a car 
3. Watch An American Werewolf in London (1981) 
4. Watch it again 
5. Burn a copy of Twilight, book or movie will work 
6. Tell a hot girl she's a dork (somebody has to) 
7. Win the lottery 
Wow. Just wow. Well, let's see what else comes in! Have a great weekend.  ~Marissa  ThePracticalMommy.HubPages.com MommyKnowsWhatsBest.blogspot.com
