Finding a Balance

  These last 2 months have been quite crazy; the new little bundle of life that depends on me, the office and shipments, my husband and my training. This week I finally added my other love back in, photography. It is a bit more difficult than before and forces me to use more creativity than I ever have, which is a good thing but is definitely a challenge. Right now, I've begun to take my camera with me when I take Dorian and Molly (my dog) for a walk in the evenings or morning and these first 2 outings I just had my regular lens but next outing I might use my longer lens.... who knows.
  I am slowly getting back to being able to do the Plank Position for 2 minutes each time, it is all a matter of forcing myself to hold out and maybe after a week or two I will start forcing myself to hold out for an extra 10 seconds and just keep adding. This morning I did 400 bicycle crunches: 8 sets of 50, equaling to 25 each side which totaled to 200 each side. I am not finished with the love handle crunch today, this morning I only did 3 sets of 25 each side, and 2 sets of Oblique Crunches, 12 reps on each side so I am definitely not finished with those two. I am also adding push ups on my ab workout days, right now I've divided them into 10 reps, 3 times throughout the day. I am excited to getting back into the swing of things now, and am slowly beginning to see my body starting to trim down.........SLOWLY.
  Tonight Cameron is meeting our CPA tonight at 4:30 and is not sure if he will make it back in time to watch Dorian for my run, so Shauna and I might end up running at 8 p.m and I will be taking Dorian with most likely which will be interesting as we are doing 1.75 miles. It will be around 79 degrees so hopefully it won't be too bad and Shauna is still not feeling to great, I am kind of hoping to add some fartleks into this run but we will see how things go. Here are one of my photos I shot yesterday, this on is Cameron's favorite and I like it too.


I love making one color "pop" out as everything else is black and white.
