So Happy to See You Mr. Friday!

Fusion Friday - Cardio Fusion That Is
I don't know how I did it, but I managed to get up at 5 am when Jason got up for swim. I slept terribly last night, so getting out of bed for my workout was definitely not an easy task (not that it's ever super easy, but you understand). I chose Cardio Fusion and only did 50 minutes then added on abs.

All I can say is that I was most thankful that today was indeed Friday. The sun was out today, but much cooler, barely hitting 60 degrees. So, here we go with the temperature roller coaster ride. Again, at least it was finally Friday.

Klutzy Thursday - Death of a Laptop
I had planned on posting some product reviews for today, since I typically eat later on Fridays and post dinner on Saturday. However, Klutzy Heather struck last night. We don't know the full extent of the damage to the laptop yet. Trying to let it dry out (story in a moment). Our other computer is so old and out of disc space that it is absolutely painful to try to do anything on it. I was close to tears last night just trying to upload two pictures and post my blog.

So, what did Klutzy Heather do you ask? Picture a full glass of wine sitting next to the computer. Had I been drinking the wine, then perhaps this would not have happened. Or perhaps if I had set the glass elsewhere or opted to not have it at all. Anyway, said full glass was just sitting there being ignored as I made dinner and took pictures. After a few incidents of pictures being deleted from the memory stick, I always check to make sure the images are there before eating. So, I reached over to insert the memory stick into the laptop. Yep, hand struck glass, wine flowed freely onto laptop, laptop went dead. Several curse words spewed forth. Then several more. Yes, it was an accident, but it was avoidable so now I have spent the last 24 hours beating myself up.

Jason had mentioned wanting to get a new mini netbook that would be easier for me to use/carry around and take on vacations with us. In some ways, the bad news of wine spillage was good news for him. He definitely jumped at the opportunity to go by the netbook today. I won't complain one bit with that decision! If I had to do another post with our old PC, the PC would have ended up on the street corner.

Tomorrow my sister is planning on coming for a visit. I'll do weights in the morning. She then wants to go for a run on the river trails followed by some shopping. It should be a good day. I plan on doing my review post as well as my my regular post about my day with sis and any good eats. Lucky you! Two posts from me :-)
Are you klutzy? What's the worst damage you've managed to do as a klutz? 

Do you have anything fun planned for the weekend?

  1. Oh...I am so sorry! I have actually done that before too. In college I spilled my water bottle into my computer. It was able to be fixed though...so here's hoping!!

  3. I love my netbook because it is SO portable. It is the machine I use most often. I think you will love one too.

    I am totally klutzy. Normally I do the most damage to myself. Twisted ankles that sort of thing.

    We are meeting a friend and doing a little outlet shopping tomorrow. It will be great fun.

    Have a great day with your sister,
    Alicia

  4. Kelly @ Healthy Living with Kelly we're hoping that it still works in the end. Just so frustrating.

    Anna @ Newlywed, Newly Veg just about any time I get to spend with my sis is great

  5. OMG! That sucks, but like you said, it is good in a way. Now you can buy a new one that actually works!! I do stuff like that all the time! I know how am about spilling drinks so I purposely don't put them anywhere near my computer. I am known for my clumsiness, so I don't want to take the chance!! I have actually dropped my cell phone in glasses of water too many times to count!

I Run to Feel Alive

Today is National Running Day . Guess what I did this morning? Cycling? Nope. Lifting? Nope. I bet you thought kickboxing right? Nope. Running? But of course! I actually sort of planned my running days this week just so I could participate this year. I didn't get to run last year and didn't even know about it the year before. But running has become such an integral part of my life and who I am, that I couldn't miss this year. Basically, I run to feel alive . It calms me, it helps me work through life, it's often a reason to get out of bed. No matter how tough a run is, it makes you feel ... period. My plan was to get in 5 miles (got in 5.5 actually). It was about 10 degrees warmer this morning and definitely more humid. That always makes for a tougher run. We decided to take a different route today. Well, it was really only a few streets over different, but still. The point is we took a different street. Sometimes that's good, sometimes not. I did realize th

Vacation Day 2 - Running, Reading, Relaxing

Running This morning I woke up a bit before 7 am. Of course, we had gone to sleep by 9....on vacation no less. I had thought I might try for an outdoor run, but the temps were already a humid 83 degrees by 8 am. So, I took my run to the treadmill. I had the Food Network to keep me occupied for a pretty decent 5 mile run. Running and watching tv isn't so bad ;-) I did 3 miles, then 4 1:00 athletic intervals then finished up another mile to round it out to and even 5. After stretching and rolling (yep, brought my TriggerPoint kit ), we packed up the cooler with lunch and headed down to the beach. Not a bad way to start the day if you ask me. Beach Time & Stair Cardio We set up our little umbrella camp and proceeded to just relax. I was excited to start one of the books I brought along with me: Alice Sebold's The Almost Moon . I've read her memoir, Lucky , and her first work of fiction, The Lovely Bones . . We were out for a few hours before taking a break.
