Last night after dinner we were sitting on the couch catching up on some shows and the oven timer went off. I immediately jumped up and thought "COOKIES!" until I realized I had just accidentally left it on. I guess that goes to show me how often I made cookies during dinner which would result in eating the entire pan in one night. I found it extremely funny how a simple sound could trigger a reflex like that. Maybe that will be the case forever or maybe I will eventually think "BRUSSELS SPROUTS" when I hear the beep.
I took the night off from exercise last night and it felt good to have a rest after 3 days in a row. We took the dogs for a nice walk and it's amazing how much my endurance has improved. I barely broke a sweat on our usual route which almost killed me a few months ago. I'll be pounding away on the treadmill again tonight. I hope I have more energy than I did on Wednesday night. I think sometimes we are just "off".
This weekend is supposed to be sunny for the first time in forever and I plan on making the most of it! We don't have too many social obligations aside from a baby shower so I plan on getting a ton of exercise and some good sunshine.
Hope everyone has a great weekend!!
Awwww, Geez!! Would the buzzer HAVE to be brussel sprouts??? Could it be something else? A lovely baked fish or some other veggie?
ReplyDeleteIt is amazing what triggers are embedded in our brains, isn't it?
Have a great weekend.
That's funny...and now I want a cookie!
ReplyDeleteI've glad you lost your cookies (whoa... they doesn't sound so good).
ReplyDeleteThat was too funny!
ReplyDeleteI can't figure out how I have been missing your posts...grrr. Go to get all caught up...
LOL, the rush for the cookies, hope you weren't too disappointed!
ReplyDeleteYou have been doing very well - you deserve a great weekend!
OMG that's so funny about the oven timer. Especially since I'm making cookies right now! Not for me, though. I did have one "test" cookie, but the rest are for my cousin who just had twins - I'm going to visit them tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteAwesome about the increased stamina - it will just keep getting better!
Have a great weekend!

Pavlov's saliva dogs - too funny. I know what you mean tho - I have similar triggers like a certain time of day, TV show, waking up, air I breathe - you get the picture.
ReplyDeleteIt's finally sunny here too after a week of rain. Can't wait to mow that lawn and burn some fat. Have a great weekend.
