My Way

I've had a really great couple of weeks. Its summer here, so there is a lot going on. We've been going to "Jazz in the Park", and swing dancing. We had a bonfire at the beach on Tuesday night with our good friend's Q&A. We played cricket on the beach while the sun set. Cooked smores. My husband is with the nerdy masses this week for Comic Con. I've been seeing a personal trainer at my gym. I'm 30 next year, and have a goal of feeling fantastic at that time. For the last 6 weeks I've been working out 3-4 times a week, along with my daily walks and now incorporating weights into my routine. Its going really well - and albeit sore, I feel like the cobwebs are getting cleaned out. I'm someone who thrives on a lot of exercise. When I get into it, I feel fantastic. I walk almost daily for a good 30-40 minutes, but needed some weight training and harder cardio to get a sweat up.

A couple of weeks ago my MIL arranged for some friends and I to have an organized shopping tour in LA! It was amazing - so much fun. It was a complete surprise. We went to vintage stores around Melrose and La Brea. The best vintage stores I have ever shopped at! I walked away with 4 too many dresses to add to my ridiculously large wardrobe. One day I swear I'll ebay it all and live off 2 pairs of jeans, 2 skirts, 2 tops and a dress. Well, maybe.

So, thats whats been going on in my life. I'm officially a full-time-blog-neglector.

Have fun enjoying real life... I know I am ;-)

ps: if you want a major workout, try weeding a crazy garden and grapevines for 6 hours straight!

LLG: thats the point. joking.

Technodoll: My Mum used to pay me 1cent a weed I pulled out when I was a kid. I guess I didn't see the value of the exercise in it then! Now I have a concrete patio...

Dr Sub: The level and extent of nerdy-ness really showed after we got married. Its always the way :)

Daring to dream: thanks! I'm just not very good at keeping up with blogging. Life is busy. But I'll blog from time to time:)

I've always wanted to play cricket...there's a group of about 30 Indian men who play cricket in the park by my house, and it always makes me feel so...multicultural when I go running past.
