Wha'd up?

 

September is upon us and that means Fall and PSL’s!  We have not had a full one yet but Twin 2 got a sample of one as the Starbucks down town was passing out samples on Sept 1.

Twin 2 also went away this past weekend to our cousins wedding and Twin 1 stayed behind.

It was a great long weekend for sure.  Now we have a long weekend every month until the end of the year which makes us very happy.

This is a picture of Long lake at 8am on Sunday morning.  Twin 2 took the dogs out for a walk and there was not a sole there other then the guy that lives in the woods which she never runs into and doesn’t really know where abouts he puts his camp now but his Beemer (BMW) is always in the lot.  No wonder he can afford a BMW is he doesn’t have to pay rent 😉

Saturday Twin 1 and sister Wi went out to spend her HSC gift card she received for her bday back in July.  She remembers why she doesn’t’ go to the mall anymore….everything is SOOOOOOOOO expensive and not her style anymore LOL but she managed to find two pair of pants and a blazer.  Of course everything is too long so Sister Wi is hired to come over on Sunday and hem them all for her. $5 a pant

 

Also Twin 1 had a huge problem with paying FULL PRICE for anything but she saw these shoes at Winners and has been looking for pointy flats for a while and so she got these.  Technically they weren’t full price as the tag said “original price $110 but Winners sold them for $69.99 she still feels like throwing up every time she thinks about what she paid for them. 

 

Also Sunday evening the Twins were allowed to join a Fantasy Football Draft with the boys which was quite exciting.  They were going to be a team together but last minute someone else wanted to join the team so Twin 1 was asked to see if she wanted to put her own in to make the Teams an even number.  Sure. she was quite excited until she sat down to do it and THIS HAPPENED!!!! Lucky for her it “autodrafts” but she wanted to pick all her own.  She got about 2 of the 15 picks in and was quite upset but what can you do.  That is why she never uses her home computer and even the phone app for it sucked.  Anyway we will see how the Twins do in the pool and will let you all know.

Twin 2 and her hubby are off to Cincy for their 10 year anniversary tomorrow  Here's to hoping they don't get delayed by any rain or hurricane. 

Football starts TOMORROW NIGHT!!

2017 Bucket List - Update

Every year we like to look at our goals/bucket list for the year at about the 6 month mark to see how we are doing.  We are a little behind in the time line and also in completing the list. We actually completely forgot what was on our list :)

1. Bike to Chester
2. Wear leggings/dress
3. Buy a foam roller - we didn't buy one but a friend won one and never used it so she gave it to us.  Twin 1 has it as Twin 2 bought the roller ball massager.  She has plans for a review but has yet to post. 
4. Finish JM 90 Day Body Revolution by mid February - so close but no cigar however, we did complete a three month strength training program in the spring, so it is possible.
5. Bike/walk the Salt Marsh trail
6. Run another 10k
7. Check out the Designer Outlet in Bayers Lake
8. Run in shorts/sports bra (probably not at same time) in summer
9. Finish reading Hillary Clinton's book "Hard Choices.  The book was an impulse buy 2 years ago and it's voluminous. 
10.Bike to work (Twin 1)
11. Do 1 unassisted pull up (Twin 1)
12. Bike 2017 km in 2017

We have some work to do this fall/winter.

Wha'd Up?

Last week Sista Wi was on vacay so Twin 2 checked in on the budgies a few times.  We have no problem saying 'yes' as there is always some goodies at her house that we go looking for :)

Just a picture of Lou relaxing in the evening.  He looks pretty content.

Spent Saturday afternoon untangling this beauty.  The picture does not do the tangle justice.

Wha'd Up?

Well here we are.  Twin 1 is still on vacation and it's been a beautiful two weeks for here.  We definitely can't complaint about the weather this summer.  Hopefully it will continue into September.  Today we'll just post some pics of the past few weeks.

1.  This book was referred to Twin 2 by another lover of boy bands.  It's a very easy read and was found in the 'teen' section at Chapters.  (lol)  If anyone wants to borrow it, let us know!

2.  Twin 2 and CF were walking on the boardwalk at lunch one day and these were being given away for free AND we each got two packs!  We thought that was pretty generous.  Our review?  If they are being given away two at a time for free take ONE and form your own opinion.  If you are thinking about buying them, DO NOT. They are ok while they are being eaten but the aftertaste is GROSS.

3. THESE on the other hand, if they are being given away for free take them all!!!  If you were a CAA member, on August 2 you could go into Marble Stone Creamy and get a free cookie sandwich.  Delish!!

4.  Friday was Twin 2's 10 wedding anniversary.  She received a card from Mom and Dad? But we're still not sure who our daddy is.

 5.  Twin 2's cats are just like kids.  Can't have anything nice.  Introducing the faceless giraffe.

Find the best fitness friend

A workout buddy is hugely helpful for keeping motivated, but it's important to find someone who will inspire—not discourage. So make a list of all your exercise-loving friends, then see who fits this criteria, says Andrew Kastor, an ASICS running coach: Can your pal meet to exercise on a regular basis? Is she supportive (not disparaging) of your goals? And last, will your bud be able to keep up with you or even push your limits in key workouts? If you've got someone that fits all three, make that phone call.

Where Are We?

We have not abandoned the blog.  We're just lazy/in vacay mode at the moment.  We will return to regular broadcasting (how sparse it is) shortly.

Wha'd up?

We are still running!!

Also enjoying some walks/hikes at the Bluff. 

Keeping an eye out for bears and coyotes.

Made this salad over the weekend for the week.  We call it "Super Salad".  The ingredients include: spinach, broccoli, feta, cucumber, macadamia nuts, raspberries, blackberries, pumpkin seeds, coconut flakes, and avocado with some olive oil/lemon juice for dressing.  And a little turkey bacon for some animal protein.  YUM! YUM!

Not everything is as it seems and turns out differently then you imagine :-)
