Yeah, so, I had disappeared there for a little while. Sometimes life gets in the way of the best laid plans. I was busy with work, was away for a bit and then went on an Alaskan cruise with the family. Now it's time to get back to reality.
So, the cruise was great. Lots of great scenery and, of course, food! Mom was actually peeved because I only put on one pound while I was away! Must be my metabolism she says as I ate far more cookies and deserts than she did! If you haven't cruised yet, you definitely should! I probably didn't eat as many cookies as mom thought.....and I did go to the gym while I was on the ship. Well, only once but we did do a fair bit of walking on our excursions....
Anyway, yeah, back to reality. I guess that is going to start with getting back to the gym. Karate is finished now for the summer so I will have to take that time and use it for the gym or maybe a couple of walks outside. I used to do that a lot once. A friend of mine is looking to get back to the gym as well so hopefully we can both work out a schedule to go together. Usually more likely to go when I have someone to go with. I do play golf in the summer but I don't know how much exercise I'll get there considering I am a member at Humber Valley Resort and you need a cart to get around the course. I'll have to make myself walk to the ball....yeah, that's it....I'll walk to the ball.....
Summer brings BBQs, camp fires, nights at the cabin and various other outdoor activities. More excuses to eat, perhaps. And I do love spider weiners, roasted marshmallows and s'mores. I truly believe in moderation so there is always room in the summer menu for treats but this year they are going to have to be limited. And maybe switch out the baked potato for salad or something like that. More water and less pop and booze.
Going forward, I'll try to post a little more frequently. Welcome summer and let's get out there and enjoy the sun and warm weather! Take advantage of the summer evenings and get out and get active!
