Had a lovely morning of school work, even managed to get AQ and EQ to join in a bit. Then the weather wasn’t really lake warm so we decided to hit the park instead. We had a great time at the park, had the place to ourselves.
img_0107sm.jpgApon returning home I had a real fight. The place looked at first like we had been burgled. The screen to the front window was slashed and pulled half out and the place was a wreak. Dishes that were next to the sink were scattered everywhere. The was a unopened box of chocolates given to me on the counter opened and wrappers everywhere. Stuff knocked off shelves.img_0103sm.jpg The place looked awful. Then I discovered the second screen slashing and figured out who the intruder was. It seems the squirrel I had been chasing off the back screens all morning had finally gotten in and had a party. To top it off the little s*** was sitting on the deck trying to figure out if he could have seconds while I was still cleaning the place and checking the damage. NO-ONE I MEAN NO-ONE MESSES WITH MY NEW KITCHEN. I AM SOOOOOO MAD. img_0099sm.jpgThe only real damage was scratches to my stove top, I have no idea how the counters escaped damage, the screens are wreaked and the glass top to my big desk is all scratched up. I think he may be the cause of some scratches to the wood floor but the kids may also have done those so not sure. So it is now war. I am sorry to all those peace loving animal people out there but when it comes to my house or the squirrel the squirrel WILL LOOSE. I am still mad. Best not to think about it. Wait till he shows up in the morning! At least it was the squirrel and not the bear! Always a bright side I guess -lol.
img_0120sm.jpgSo I got the P90X training system and it took me a while to brave up to trying it. I read the paper work and freaked out. It keeps going on about how it is an extreme training program and don’t try if you are not fit. So I figured I was nowhere near fit enough considering the only regular fitness program I have been doing for the last 5 years is yoga. I very proud of myself for making it through without injury and feeling challenged but not ready for death as I had expected. I feel like one of those workout adrenalin junkies - WOOHOO!! lol I am looking forward to feeling fit again without having to leave home. It is still a few years before the kids are all in school and I just can’t get to a gym regularly enough until then so this will have to do. Not sure I can do it daily though, I am not quite that commited!
