thin mints are my weakness...

this workout thing is harder than i thought it would be. as it turns out, finding the time is the hardest part. i've had the video since last week, i've even added a couple of other workout videos on Netflix, but i've only done the workout thing maybe 3 times. that was not how i had planned this at all. and to make matters worse, girl scout cookies are on sale now. i have a weakness for thin mints. a horrible, horrible weakness. so, now is the time for me to step it up a bit. well, more than a bit, because i'd really like to enjoy thin mints while they are still around. i need to find a way to set a schedule and stick to it. something like alternating days or evenings. my plan was to workout during my daughter's nap time, but i've found that a day without that two hours to relax and read, sleep, or watch The Office re-runs, kind of turns me into "not-so-fun mommy". so, i'm thinking maybe i could work out right after i put her to bed, which is usually around 8p. i could do it on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays. i need to write this down on a colorful sheet of paper, and i need to put it up on the fridge...no, the food cabinet door. that way every time i go into the kitchen on a mission to eat something for a reason other than being hungry, i will be reminded of the workout schedule. these sorts of things keep me going. with no set schedule i have leeway to be lazy and make up some lame excuse for why i decided not to workout that day. i still have half the month left, let us see if i can make something happen.

off subject...i had previously complained about the lack of snow in this quaint little college town back in December, but i take it back. tonight it snowed. it snowed a lot. and even though it didn't stick to the ground or blanket more than the cars in the parking lot, it was still beautiful and wonderful and so much fun to watch.
