My collection has grown from one to three, I’m trying to be good, but as I’ve confessed I’m a bikinni junkie, I collect them like some women collect shoes.

At least with shoes you can wear them all year except flip flops or sandals I guess. I’ll have to start wearing them under my winter clothes to get my money’s worth out of them, lol.

Roofers at my house today, not "cute" workout attire for me, just a neon bright yellow shirt and some cut off capri sweatpants, they were probably thinking I was weird, oh well I am.

I did legs today, knew my buddy Al usually does them Fridays too, so it was cool imagining a friend workout with me, lol.

Tommorow is busy. Ballgame, pick up babysitter, get ready to go to hubby’s business dinner. Though if it snows it will be my fault, tommorow will be the 4th time I’ve worn a dress this year, so be prepared for weird weather.

Got some requests to be friends on facebook from people who are not friends with any of my friends, I wonder sometimes how they find me. Is my pic posted somewhere I don’t know about?

Several guys from foreign countries, strange. At least on here I have an idea how I get those weird pms. I tell ya when I started on here I was naive, and thought no weird people to worry about, learned my lesson when a guy kept pestering me after I responded once to him.

No naive me anymore which is good. I just thought MySpace was the one to worry about. Had some stalker woman who wanted to know where I lived so she could meet me. And that is why when my child’s computer will always be in the office where mine is, too many strange people out there.

Not the remake, man I’m so sick of remakes, what’s next a remake of Saturday Night Fever? The Breakfast Club? I’m talking the original Friday the 13th with Betsy Palmer. "Hurt her Mommy, hurt her"

We went canoeing today. We’ve had a canoe for a couple of months but my hubby and son have went out in it not me. So today I got to go out in it. I wanted to wear my sneakers, but hubby pointed out they’d get wet, well I should’ve worn them, the only other shoes I had was velcro sandals.

Going down the hill carrying the canoe was not a big problem, though my hand kept hurting(more on that later) So I stumble in, then my son, then my hubby and out we go. Every little shake and shimmy freaked me out. I kept thinking man if this thing capsizes I can’t think about myself, got to worry about the kiddo.

So we’re sitting out there in the middle while those 2 try to fish and I just kept picturing, the final scene in Friday the 13th where the counselor wakes up in the middle of Crystal Lake in the canoe, sees the sheriff, and her hand is drifting in the water, and out pops a young Jason Vorhees and he drags her under.

Going back up the hill killed me, my shoes sucked, couldn’t get get foot grip, and my hands kept getting tired. Hubby was frustrated with me and I didn’t blame him, here I am a big workout Queen and I was struggling with the dumb canoe up the hill.

On the way home he asked me where I held it, I realized I was only using my fingers and letting my hand hang like the canoe was luggage and not the 100lb thing it really is. Tommorow I’m buying some decent canoeing shoes.

Anyhow I worked out today, got interuppted by the roofing guys, who caught me in my sports bra and Wild One sweat pants, lol.

20min HITT ON ellpictical

10min ss cardio on my treadmill, no fat suit, was too worried the roofers would need me for something.

Hit the pitching machine place with the kiddo and we practiced bunting then back home and got ready to swim. normally I’d just walk from my back yard to the pool in my suit but after the roofers seeing me in my workout attire I didn’t want them to see me prancing around in my string bikini so I wore a tank and shorts.

That’s what I wanted to yell at the a**hole coach on the other team. He was foaming at the mouth shrieking and cussing at the ump who was 13 years old. I wanted to go down there and kick his a$$.

People like that ruin it for the kids. Then we have one woman on our side who claps every time a kid on the other side strikes out, and sees nothing wrong with that. Just takes me back to growing up by the little league park and how insane some parents can get.

It was hot here today. My kiddo is still struggling with hitting from a pitching machine but he has a wicked arm when it comes to throwing the ball in, all 3 balls that came his way he scooped up and threw in great.

Did get my workout in today

11min ss cardio on my treadmill in my fat suit. 2 more ball games this week, then one regular one next week, then tournaments 4th of July weekend, then nothing! Lots of swimming and working on my tan with my kiddo.

Wonder if begging would help?? Would you be my friend???

Today was legs they were quick, that’s the plan for summer keep the weights in circuit style, supersets sometimes and get them done, so I can get the kiddo out in this nice weather.

followed by 30min ss cardio in my fat suit on the treadmill, I think I had so much sweat pouring off of me I could’ve filled an 8ounce glass.

Some observations at the pool today,

1. Some people overtan in an attempt to hide cellulite, thus only standing out more dramatically.

2. Some people haven’t heard that some white suits become transparent when wet or don’t care.

3. When going down the speed slide its important to make sure your bikini top is double knotted.

4. Its important to put a little self tanner on if you looking like casper, along with uber sun screen. I saw one Casper, and one Hellboy today at the pool.

That’s what I musta had posted on my lower legs while out fishing with my family Friday evening, anywhere I missed with bug spray got bitten. I have a grand total of 20 bites from one night, now how in the Hell did I go all week at cubscout camp, in the marshlands with no damn mosquito bites. They bit thru my socks, my shorts, my shirt, nasty vile creatures and right now I want to literally scratch my legs off my body.

Today I start my own personal Labor Day challenge I took measurements and hope in 11 weeks to see some big changes.

Today was cardio only, but first I took my cat to the vet, Saturday she was gone all day, then tried to put some whoop ass on me that night when I petted her. Now this is the friendliest cat ever, never growls or bites, but let me tell ya Saturday she was in some pain and was going to whip my ass if I petted her right leg.

Sunday she hid behind bushes, but today she was doing better, so I scooped her up and off to the vet she went to find out she had a sprained leg and I had to give her pain meds. Now dogs are pains in the asses to give meds to, just imagine cats, but since she was feeling better she took it no problem.

Speaking of dogs, my dumb assed dog got sprayed by one of those damn skunks! Then the damn skunk was in my shed where the hose was, so Chelsea got some skunk away put on her, her cage drug outside and she slept outside in her cage, for 2 reasons; 1. I was afraid she’d get sprayed by the psycho shed skunk again, 2. She’d crawl under our fence and disappear.

AFter 4 treatments of skunk away, the first given at 11pm Friday night, 3 more on Saturday and 2 baths she was able to come inside that evening.

Sunday, my hubby worked at COSI and the kiddo and I went to visit and check out the sites, tried crawling thru the submarine they had there, where I promptly conked my head, God bless the people who work in subs because I’d think I’d go crazy being in the small space, constantly ducking down.

Anyhow: 30minutes of HITT on my treadmill, was going to do 10min ss on my rbike but the roof guys showed up and I had to move my cars out of the driveway, in my stinky sweaty workout clothes, I’m sure they were impressed with me, lol.

I’ve been at cubscout camp with my kiddo. Early morning workouts and usually I’m too tired to post but I just wanted to point out to some who might be starting their workout journey that being in shape comes in handy.

Case in point today, our den found another den’s flag. I carried the 2 flags for most of the day before the other den found us. The den leader was like a rabid beast, came barreling at me yelling at me to give the flag to him.

Well I didn’t for the simple reason that when you find another den’s flag unattended that den has to sing a stupid song to get it back. This guy was trying to hurt me for the flag, 2 women with him came running up and started grabbing both flags and you know what?

I didn’t let go of either, in fact I pulled them both away from him. Why? Because I was in better strength health then him or the 2 women. I think I freaked them out but damn it, our den was looking forward to the other den singing "I’m a little teapot"

I think their den leader thought we stole it, we didn’t. We literally found it laying on the ground by Old Stinky(outhouse) no one from their troop around. Plus he’s the brother of a cubscout big lead. My den was impressed with me, lol.

Prior to the altercation my den was tired from hiking up cardiac hill, a 65 degree incline hill, with me leading, in fact the leader had to blow the whistle twice for me to stop and her to catch her breath.

That comes from cardio vascular health and all the HIIT I’ve done.

So don’t get discouraged, keep trying because you’ll never know when you have to fight off a rabid den leader.

Yesterday was legs, today was back.

Tommorow should be chest. No cardio since Tuesday, figured I’ve been going up and down the hill at full speed so that’s my cardio.

My little guy has cubscout daycamp, which requires Big Momma to go with him, starts tommorow, so I’ll be up nice and early getting my workout in prior to daycamp.

Today was just cardio: 20min sweaty HIIT

20min ss cardio in my fat suit on my treadmill

Had to get everything done today that I usually have all week for, but I found time for the pool. Fat always looks nicer tan. Also got to wear my new string bikini, it will take some getting use to.

Past couple days I’ve been dealing with a skunk who is eating my cat’s food and has no fear of me. Its coming out at twilight, still light out. Yesterday I didn’t get the food in time but my cat scared it away without getting sprayed. I just kept thinking, Oh no I’m going to have to bathe her in skunk away and cats so love getting baths.

For a moment I had to stop and stare and make sure I wasn’t looking in a mirror. No, not a mirror. I was at the pool and I swear a lady there had my old ass. I recognized it right away. The huge butt smiles.

You don’t know what butt smiles are? Think where your ass hangs and leaves a smile. some have big old Smiles you can post on a billboard, others have no butt smiles at all(lucky butts).

Next thing I recognized was the saddlebags. You know open them up, put all your stuff in them. Yep use to have them. Along with the potted hamstring. You know where its so full of cellulite it looks like a mine field that exploded.

I felt bad for the lady, but not so bad I’d ever what my old ass back. I try and trade my current one in, every 3 months for a newer, more "youthly" looking one.

I tell ya, if I had any clue when I was 21 that my metabolism would take a nosedive at 30, I would’ve been lifting weights then. No, I was young and thought who needs muscle when I can be Jane Fonda and cardio myself to death.

But I’m older and wiser and now know how great lifting weights is and no I do not look like a guy disguised as a woman.(Think Buffalo Bill in Silence of the Lambs, you know in that dance scene?) that’s what I use to think lifting weights would do to my appearance.

So this coming week should be interesting, will be getting my ass up early Tuesday thru Friday to get my weights and HIIT in, the kiddo and I have cubscout daycamp, hopefully we’ll get to do fun things. We tried a cubscout hike with his pack and the woman running it wouldn’t let the kids run, check out leaves on trees, etc. We had to walk in a march like we were in a parade.

Yesterday was just biking with the kiddo, today was swimming, active rest so to speak I guess.

I watched He’s Just not into you. Ugh. I mean I don’t want to have to check 10 sites to see if someone’s into me and get rejected on all of them. I’d rather just say if I was a single woman that is "hey you want to go out sometime" then the guy say "sure" or "no thanks"

I mean WTH. I feel sorry for single people fighting the dating war. I’d just stay home, and watch me some nice "adult" movies and take matters into my own hands so to speak.

Thankfully I have no single friends anymore locally, now on the computer I have quite a few and to them I wish all the luck in the world in finding that right one, or even the one good enough for right now.

My kiddo’s birthday was Wednesday, hard to believe its been over 8 years ago I was in labor, I still remember those labor pains and my hubby saying "wow that looks like a bad one" as he looked at the monitor. No I didn’t punch him out, though I thought about it, I realized he was just really getting into the whole thing.

So anyhow Wednesday I did: back, biceps and HIIT

Thursday I did: chest/tris/ HIIT and a little ss cardio to rake up miles on my treadmill

Today was legs: 5min stretching

circuits: butt squats: 85×8x3

          lunges: 20×8x3

5min stretching

Also did 20min of mind blowing, sweating like a HOG HIIT on my treadmill, yes I’m a mile wanting fiend on my treadmill, you’d think I’d win money they way I’m trying to rake up the mileage, I’m at 1021miles on it.

out of the water, not the sky. Had on my favorite bikini from last year at the pool, went swimming, dove under and as I’m coming up, my suit  bottom is going down, thankfully I realized it before I stood and mooned everyone, but still. I’m bummed that my favorite suit is too big in the bum area now, I’m sure my hubby will just shake his head when I say I need more bikinis, I’ve become a bikini pack rat, some people buy Jimmy Choos, I buy bikinis.

Anyhow this weekend sucked, major strife, etc. spilled over into Monday, but today back on schedule with workouts
