Thanks to all for leaving me wonderful messages for my birthday. I know it has been about a week or so since I have been on here. Things have been a little hectic with the kids and life in general. The past few days all my free time was spent doing an online discussion board about new movies coming out this summer and fall. It paid pretty good so I wanted to do it. I do these little surveys for little extra spending cash…usually for the kids. My birthday was great. I expected my day to be like any other day since it was on a thursday but Mike surprised me. I didn’t even hear him get up with our son in the morning. I got to sleep in for a little bit! The kids and  Mike then woke me up singing happy birthday and gave me a card. While I was asleep Logan and Mike made me a cupcake cake! YUMMY! *LOL* Even though it is not a part of my diet I will make this exception because it is specially made with love. I have been pretty good about not going back for "just one more" cupcake. I guess it is because here lately I cannot eat a lot of sweets. *LOL* Maybe it is that death chocolate cake Mike made a few weeks ago that made my body go into shock! HA HA HA. I am so excited because I found out this week starting next week our gym is starting a new program for personal training. Everyone’s slate gets wiped out and everyone has 10 new pt visits! I had just finished my 10 and now I get 10 more which is kick @ss since I am still training for the Police Qualification Test. Speaking of…I am sorry to announce they still do not have the new testing dates up. I am thinking maybe there is a freeze in hiring. I heard something a few months back that the mayor was freezing all government hiring but it didn’t happen. I am thinking maybe it did now. I will continue to train to keep on top but I also love how I look and feel I am not about to stop just because!
As far as training is concerned I have been doing great. since the online discussion board and my birthday I only made it twice to the gym this week. I had another personal trainer on Wednesday because my trainer is a hot commodity at that gym. She did really well with me. There were a few things I could only do so much of because of my back and such but I felt great leaving. We did circuit training with the bench, Hindu push ups and dumbbell deadlifts. The deadlifts we had a few sets of straight-legged and then a few one-legged. We used the smith machine and a stability ball to do a decline chin up. These were fairly easy for me. I also did circuit on the treadmill. We only did 2 miles but I was dripping with sweat! *LOL* NICE!

Today I was with my regular trainer. I was feeling a little weaker today for some reason. *LOL* And grumpier.  I am so excited! Ok so we did dumbbell clean and jerks today and I did well. I love them. I think I might continue to do them. *LOL* I am so retarded I was calling them pump and jerks! HA HA HA that is kind of like my father-in-law calling the singer Meatloaf Pot roast! But anyway Have you ever tried to plank on a stability ball and had someone slightly moving or hitting the ball in all directions? Yeah I did and they are hard! It was challenging but totally worth it. We did a little cable work and a few other things with the dumbbells. I feel good but I know my butt was kicked tonight. Thank God it is the weekend. I can relax..maybe..and start fresh Monday! I took a few new progress picks. *LOL* Mike just had to point out my wrists are teeny tiny! *LOL* I am just feminine! My tummy is getting flatter but I still have alot of work to do. Till next week!
