Delicious Chocolate Brownies

Tonight, I made some delicious chocolate brownies that I stumbled upon last night on another person's blog.  Although she posted the recipe, it's based of an old Nestle recipe.  (I'll post a link to her blog at the bottom of this page :)

Exercise Blues

I don't mind physical activity.  I enjoy hiking and running around with my students on the playground.  I like walking the dogs and rollerskating.  Things like that, I really do enjoy; but, only when I don't have to do them on a schedule.

As soon as I try to set up some sort of workout program or schedule for myself, I start to hate whatever exercise I'm doing.  It becomes the bane of my existence and I'll last about a week before I become horribly resentful that I have to do this stupid workout and take time out of my day that could be spent cleaning, cooking, or reading.  I become like a toddler in the "no" phase.   A few days after the resentful phase kicks in, I stop the workouts cold turkey.  Who needs stupid workouts anyway.  It's so much easier to be lazy anyway.

I Love Lipdubs

I love music.  I love people being silly.  I love well planned productions.  What do you get when you combine it all?  Lipdubs.  Which I really, really, love.  They always make me smile and I could probably sit there and watch them forever.

So, I decided to share my 10 favorites, in no particular order.  I hope you enjoy and get as much joy from them as I do.

Working on my Fitness

Before my wedding, I dropped 10 pounds.  As much as I told myself that I wouldn't gain it back that didn't really work out the way I planned.  Almost three months, a few gallons of Starbucks, and a ton of Slurpees later I've packed back on everything that I had lost.  The worst part was, I sat and watched my weight climb.  It didn't creep up on me.  I weighed myself at least once a week and I just let it happen.

Haircut = Life Revitalization

Sometimes, all you need in this world is a haircut.  Those of you who have ever had an A+ haircut know what I mean.  Your head feels lighter.  Your hair starts to fall perfectly again.  It takes less time to style it.  You feel amazing.  (I reiterate, this does not apply to bad hair cuts.  Those make you feel like crud.)
