Exercise Time!

-
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I feel so full. I’ve been feeling full eversince we visited the Philippine store last Sunday because I’ve been eating non-stop since then. This is one reason why I try to stay away from the Philippine store. I seem to have this urge to finish everything I buy there in one day. I’ve been jumping on the scale every chance I get to see how much I’ve gained so far…LOL. And yes, I managed to gain some already…or maybe it only seems that I have because I weigh right after stuffing food in me. Hmm…oh well, even if I’m not gaining much, I know I should start getting on the treadmill and start using my Adidas shoes that hubby got me eons ago. Aside from helping me with my weight, I read in one medical site that exercise can also help with my restless leg syndrome. I hope so because the thyroid meds I’m taking don’t seem to be doing the job with my RLS.


So starting tomorrow, I am planning in doing what I should have done a long time ago when I started having RLS, walk on the treadmill. I’ve had the treadmill for few years now and I’ve never really used it. I did use it before going to California for a friend’s wedding. I was so serious then in shaping up that I had a whole exercise routine aside from the treadmill and I got me a really nice of athletic shoes to motivate me in exercising. Well, I have no wedding to go to anytime soon but my RLS will probably be enough reason to give this exercise thing another go.


I’m not alone though this time. The husband also wants to start exercising regularly as well. We even went shopping for discount shoes last weekend for his biking shoes. It has been our longest plan to start biking together as a family. The bike trail near here was actually one of the reasons we chose the area. The little one has also been practicing and soon she will be ready for the training wheels to come off. Now all we need are bikes for me and the husband. Aha!

Good luck as you embark on that exercise regime! When Hubby got his threadmill, it was only used for about 3-4 months then it just stood as an ornament! Hahaha! When we came here in Aus, we sold it. Better for somebody using it than just pile on dust in our garage!

Anyways, it has been sunny here this week. That massive rain almost destroyed the million dollar mansions in the Gold Coast because of the sand errosion. Hay, weird weather everywhere!

Enjoy the this Thursday! Wednesday pa rin ba jan?

That would be a lot of fun going on biking with the family. I'm sure, the li'l lady will be the one who'd enjoy it the most.

Daughter here is also contemplating on buying a treadmill. But I am opposing the idea. I told her to just walk back and forth inside the house just like what we are doing.
Nagtitipid lang naman, actually. he he..

Thanks for the visit. Lapit na pala mawala ang Phil. Store dyan sa inyo. Pano ka na?

See yah again, J!

L-O-S-T. I guess that about sums up how I'm feeling right now...with blogging anyway. I don't even know how to start this post. 😕 It's been almost 2 years since I last posted. It's not that I have nothing to write about. I have plenty but I seem to have lost interest in blogging. I thought  at first that it was just a phase. I thought it would only last for a few days but days turned into weeks then months then years and I still haven't blogged. Nothing sparked my interest to blog so I just didn't. Not even paid posts lured me back. I even considered deleting it altogether. I felt like I'm wasting my money paying for the domain name. But I can't do it so I just keep on paying. I can't seem to let go of the domain 'Pinay Wahm' because I got it when not many Moms were able to make a living or earn in the comforts of home. I also have a lot of personal posts here that when I want to get details about something that happened in my life I can

When we visited my family in 2012 we didn't actually spend as much time as I would have liked with most of them. That's because we planned a road trip which took most of our time. Since we were on the road majority of the stay, we weren't able to spend as much time in my childhood home. During our recent trip, that's exactly what we did. We spent a lot of time in my childhood home. We actually stayed home too much that we got bored after a while. But it was somehow an 'eye opener' for me as well as my significant other. On his part, he was finally able to experience 'real summer' back there. Both trips happened in April. But since we were in an air-conditioned car most of the time during our 2012 trip, we didn't really feel how hot it was. This time around, the air-con was only in our room. As soon as we stepped outside, it's hot. As a result, the AC in our room stayed on the whole day because it served as a reprieve from the heat. Every time

Finally finished the project I started a couple of months ago...at least. Now I'm a happy [and a bit sore] camper. I finished putting the mulch this morning mainly because I don't want to give the weeds another chance to invade the flower beds again...at least for a few months anyway. I think I had to pull out weeds twice before to prepare them for the mulch. I thought hubby would have the chance to put it down but his work just wouldn't let him so I decided to do it myself a few weeks ago. So why did it take me weeks to finish 2 and a half flower beds? I was just taking my time I guess. There was no hurry so I took my time. Now that I'm done with that 'project' I'm off to continue another one that I started about 2 weeks ago...decluttering my home office. The weather here is as unpredictable as...the weather? Last week it was raining almost everyday as predicted by the meteorologists around here. The time the rain would fall was the unpredictable part tho
