last night it snowed pretty hard and normally when it snows knox county gets off school. most of the time when we even hear that it might snow school closes. but when it snowed last night and even this morning knox county was not off. on the way to school there were 5 wrecks in about a 10 mile trip. i have been in a bad mood since the start of the morning because today is one of those days that i did not get anything done. i didnt have workouts and it was too cold to even go outside so i have been sitting in my chair on my computer playing video games. i havent done this in a while and am actually enjoying it. its supposed to snow again tonight so maybe we will be off tomorrow.

I am not sure why it is in blue font but oh well

I saw a magazine about alcohol stoves and was very intriguing.  So I did a Google for a few “how to” sites on how to make a pop can stove yesterday.  Last night I fetched an empty pop can out of the recycle bin at work.  On the way home I stopped at a grocery store on my hunt for some yellow Heet but, they only had red………… alas……….. Ah ha!  Thought I and I went over to the Rx isle and grabbed a bottle of rubbing alcohol.  $.90 later I was out the door. Only to be accosted by some cute little girl scouts selling cookies……… Okay, two boxes of Thin Mints and $6.50 later I was on my way home.

throughout the day the weather people have called for snow tonight so i was happy all day with the thought that we might be out of school tomorrow. i was in a great mood for my workouts so i was able to have a very productive workout. now i am going to relax and enjoy the day

i able excited because as of right no it looks like i will be able to go camping. i am not sure what i want to do yet, but anything will be fun. my ideas so far are: canoe camping at Fontana dam, backpacking in the Great Smoky Mountains, or possibly just dump camping. i am already looking forward to whichever one i choose because that means i get to get away from the crazy world and just chill.

today was a rather productive day. i had a good workout, upper body, and i went to work for a little bit and made a couple of bucks in doing so. while working i was able to hit some golf balls and play a hole or two. i feel like i am getting stronger everyday. today for my bench i was able to do my 85% with more ease then i normally do. i now next time i do my max out for bench i will easily be able to increase it.

for almost the last two months i have worked out 3-4 times a week which is alot for me. when i first started a profile on bodyspace.com i thought a good workout involved benching, squatting, and some ab work. since then i have improved my workouts greatly. now eachday is a concentration of a different part of my body. for example this week: on tuesday i worked out my lower body emphaiszing my calves, thursday i worked out my upper body emphasizing on my chest, today i worked out lower body concentrating on my quads and hamstrings, and tomorrow i am working out my upper body focusing on my arms and core. i have improved my strength, flexibility, and health since i worked out with my new change of view on working out.

Today was an ok day for me. i was feeling like shit in the morning but after sleeping in i felt better. i had a great workout and the rest of the day has been pretty good. i had to give a speech today and i got a 98 on it. the only thing i did bad was i talked a little to softly, probably because i was sick. i am glad the weekend is here

the tv show Lost is on tonight and looks like it is going be good like it always is. i wish they would have the seasons closer together because i think it is one of the best shows on television along with monk and psych

when i played golf a few days ago i was able to hit the ball about a club longer every time, which for me is about 9 yards. i finally feel good about my swing and and about my fitness quality right now. i am glad that i took weight training this semester because without it i would not have felt this good. along with the weight training class i also run about 2-3 miles a day and try to golf about 3-4 times a week. with my busy schedule i don’t really have time to relax, but when i do have the time i try to take full advantage of it by going camping or just hanging out with my friends. since the start of the year i have gained about 5 pounds and most of it has been muscle. i am excited that i have improved so much and am looking forward to what is ahead
