New Year's Eve 2009 PJs and a Camera

Well, New Year's Eve for us was pretty low-key. We were in or PJs by 7 pm. Jason made dinner:  roasted potatoes, green beans with red bell peppers, and an orange sauce for our Quorn patties. We did eat properly at the table at least.

After dinner, Jason played with the camera taking pictures of the maniacs (aka Maddie and Heath) before parking it on the couch with the maniacs where we listened to music and chatted until midnight. Heath is in the first picture. We adopted him from the Okie Dokie Cocker Rescue and Maddie is the Black & White parti was adopted from Dallas/Ft. Worth Cocker Rescue.




Oh, and Jason continued to take pictures playing around with the new remote for the camera (notice the remote in his hand) that we got for Christmas courtesy of my dad and step-mother.

  1. Your canine children are adorable. We had cockers growing up, so I am partial to the breed too.

    Thanks for mentioning your camera remote. Mine has one and I have never used it. I should play around with it.

    Glad you had a nice NYE.

Workout Wednesday - Body Blaster Tabata

Happy Hump Day! I wanted to thank everyone for their comments on yesterday's post: Be Kinder to Your Body. Calories are Not the Enemy . It sounds like it resonated with many of you. Today I wanted to share a new workout with you. I've been working on interval workouts for some of my clients. I try to give them the most bang for their buck (time). I know that in an ideal world, we would all have time to do longer workouts. There would never be scheduling conflicts, sick husbands or kids, or sick us. In reality, workouts need to be effective and efficient. And they don't have to be lengthy to be effective and efficient either. There's no need to spend hours in a gym to get in a good workout. Interval workouts like HIIT (High-Intensity Interval Training) or tabata, or even interval running are great ways to get in a fantastic workout in a short amount of time and have many benefits. You can read more about Tabata workouts  here .

Piriformis Update & Grilled Veggie Salad

New Piriformis Exercises Today wasn't too terrible for a Monday. Of course, I did leave a little early. That always helps huh ;-) I had another round of physical therapy today. My PT has been really researching piriformis syndrome and found an interesting article that discusses the use of McKenzie Exercises - typically used for back pain. I have started adding in low back extensions (one of the exercises) but now have a whole new list of exercises to add into my workout rotations. But, if it helps, I'll do it. I also asked her about dry needling (thanks Sarena ), which is sort of similar to acupuncture, but is more about trigger point and intramuscular stimulation. And I'm glad I asked because the timing is uncanny. One of the doctor's in the clinic happens to be going to get certified this weekend. They both believe that I am a prime candidate for the procedure. So we'll see how that goes. Kind of scared because I hate hate hate needles. Have any of you tr
