Heat Wave

Goddamn it's hot in Pittsburgh! It's already in the 80's at 9:30 a.m.

No running for me today, on day 6 of P90X. I did Kempo X and Ab Ripper. Only Tony Horton would make you do kickboxing the day after legs! My legs and ass were already screaming this morning.

Ab Ripper was way tough this morning too. It's 16 minutes of hell, I tell ya. 333 moves! I better be fah-reaking hot by the end of 90 days! LOL

Shoe Hoor


I know I am a blogging fool! This is so much fun, I should have been doing this ages ago....I could have been boring you people long ago....bwhahahaha

I had to take a picture of the shoes I'm wearing cause I love them so much. They scrunch my toes, but so what? They are cute.

The Quest for the Cup Ends for Pittsburgh

It was a disappointing loss for the Pens last night, particularly on home ice.

But it was a respectable finish after the first 2 games, where they were completely dominated by Detroit. Detroit is a great team, there is no shame in losing to them.

Thanks for the great season Pittsburgh Penguins, it's been a hell of a ride!


I didn't do my Yoga X this morning, just wasn't feeling it! LOL I am going to do it after work. Have I mentioned how much I hate Yoga? It feels like you aren't burning any calories, and I am just too OCD for the slow pace of it. But I guess it improves strength...eh.

No Snausages!



Okay, so this is the first day I've worn a sleeveless shirt this year. I've worn this shirt many times before and always felt self-conscious about my ham hock snausagey arms.

But this morning I actually felt okay in it! The snausages are fading, that the baby Jesus!

I was pretty tired this morning, the double workouts for the last few days have taken it's toll. I felt like my head hit the pillow last night and within 5 minutes my alarm went off at 4:30. It took a while to get out of bed and every part of me hurt.

I did P90X Back and Biceps this morning, no running on tap today. Only 2 AP's...waaahhhh

It's Not Over Till It's Over





I admit it, I counted the Pittsburgh Penuins out. Bad Kelly! Detroit completely dominated games 1 & 2, we came up with a win in game 3, but lost a crucial game 4. Last night, they were absolutelyfreaking amazing. They were down 3-2 in the 3rd Quarter, the champagne was ready to be wheeled into the Detroit locker room, Detroit fans were cheering "We want the cup" and score Pittsburgh in the last 30 seconds!!


At that point, I had to go to bed, I guess I'm not a die hard fan. But I heard my son and his friends cheering around 12:45 a.m. and woke up to a win! So no matter what happens from here, it's been a great ride.




Despite going to bed late, I drug my ass out of bed at 4:45 to do the worst P90X workout evah, Plyometrics, aka jump training. You have no clue how hard it was to get out of bed! There is an option to do Cardio X instead of Plyometrics because it is so hard. But take the easy way out?? No way! In the words of Tony Horton, BRING IT!

Phase II of Hell

This morning was the start of Phase II of P90X. I enjoyed my recovery week and now it's back to the grind. I did Chest, shoulders and triceps this morning. Man, I thought Phase I was hard! We're talking one arm pushups, plyometric pushups, etc. I could barely lift my arms to put my makeup on this morning.

I didn't have time to do Ab Ripper, so I'll be doing that after work. I also am planning on a 3 mile run at lunch.
