Wow ..It's Been A WHILE!

Ok so Jill must have forgotten how to blog. I hope to get back into it this year. It's been a very busy last year. On top of being a very busy special education teacher I also got engaged in February 2010. I then set out to plan a successful wedding by July 17, 2010. Well I pulled it off...even though the weather patterns tried to interfere. We had sun, wind, calm, sun, rain, pouring rain, hail, lightening strikes, power outage for hour and 45 minutes and then sun again. So everything but snow..which I was thankful we did without. It was a great day!
Since then I've moved into the house that my husband had prior to our marriage. I have done a lot of painting to the white walls in the basement and worked at moving in my items(they are in the garage...boo).
Currently, I have begun my 4th year at the same school. I love my job..even more this year..and look forward to really turning things around and establishing a program for a students.

As for working out...I am still swimming, biking, and running. Last fall I added BodyPump to my plate and I love it. I do that Wednesday mornings...like today at 5:45 am. It's a great way to start my day.

Tomorrow's plan = SWIM DAY:) Hello wake up call at 4:30 am

Trying to Work My Butt Off

For real, I'm tryin to work it off. I have been going pretty strong this 2010 year, so far. I hope to keep it. So far I have not had any POP for 18 days and I SOOOO can already tell. I'm not as tired, I can tell I've lost some pop/water weight, my pants are looser..it's great. Since I've started bodypump I can do push-ups..so my arms and legs are getting stronger. I joined Gator Adult Swim Team again and that has helped get my butt in the pool 2 times per week. I also rack up at least 2000 meters each time for a total of 4000 to 4800 meters a week. I am going to have to keep going. It may be a year round MUST. Then I don't have to deal with the lady that wacks me in the pool at the gym. I do not like that...it ruins my entire day and/or workout if I see I have to share a lane with her or next to her.

So 2nd semester started yesterday I can't believe we're half way done. It has gone by SOOOOO fast already. The kids are doing a good job this year.
Well off to post some workout stats and then it's time for WORK..ugh.

A New Year

Last week I went out to Montana with my family to see my sister, brother in law and the nieces. It was a GREAT trip. We ziplined and skiied. I was a bit sore but it was worth it. My niece Tillie said Auntie this and Auntie that the whole time...I loved it!

So Monday I went back to school after a long Christmas Vacation. I started Monday out with joining Adult Gator Swim team again. It is an evening session on Mondays so I was able to do 2300 meters. Tuesday morning I biked 13 miles with a friend at the gym. On Wednesday I decided to get back into BodyPump and decided it was "okay" to lift the same weight I was lifting 4 weeks ago. OUCH...boy do my legs hurt today. So today I decided to ride my bike at home today. I did 60 minutes or 20 miles on the bike...it loosened my legs up.

As for tomorrow I'm looking forward to FRIDAY!!!!
