I Am Here ...

A Bit... Anticlimactic!

I've been quite the flake master lately when it comes to keeping up with the "Jones'." A lot of it has to do with nothing but griping to report... and who REALLY wants to read about griping? So I've been trying to keep myself busy in other avenues.

I finally figured out why I have been SO sick since November. Ear infections, sinus infections, AND the uber gross eye infections. Well, I'm not a walking festering head of sickness I am happy to report; I am a walking festering head of allergies.

Huh.

Well that feels a bit anticlimactic doesn't it?

I guess normal people just use antihistamines and decongestants when they have allergies to help keep their head dry and not oozing. Not I. I never had allergies... so didn't know how to take care of them.

Seriously though?! How gross is it that I have had nasty fluids sitting in my head continually growing bacteria causing me to practically DIE every other week? Pretty nasty gross! HAHA!

So here I am saying- I have it under control finally. So what am I going to do about it? Well as soon as I sign off here I am going to work on my weekly schedule and work extra hard on my arms. Due to traveling I haven't been able to keep up with my ab routine so I'll work on them today as well.

Here's to this week full of flowers and Clariton- because apparently I am the only person in the World who never had allergies before. I hope you get to enjoy it too!

;) Love Nichole

W-W-W What's Happenin?

Well let me tell you! :) I am SO SO SORE! Ab class on Monday was coming along nicely and I was working up a sweat when out of the blue Dan carries out three blue matts.

"HMMMM" I thought to myself as my stomach clenched into a knot of nervousness. Those of you who know me well know that I don't handle a nervous stomach well at all. I was ready to bolt out the door when in slow motion the word "P.L.A.N.K.S." escaped his lips!

"NOOOOOOOOOO!!!" I hollered dropping to my knees throwing my hands up into the air.

Why can't we have an easy work out?!

I even stared down an unsuspecting sandbag and did an impression of a Japanese movie dubbed over in English with my lips as I spat out, "We come face to face again my foe..."

Rachel and I thought it was pretty funny...

I don't think anyone else did though, all I got back was weird stares. Hmmm....

So for a minute I had to brace myself in push up position and do the dreaded plank- twice.

Have you heard a grown woman cry? How about an embarrassing howl of pure self inflicted agony? Well... I can honestly say I wasn't only purple in the face because of the pressure. Nope, some of that was embarrassment! But my shame didn't last long! My best friend started to make "VROOM VROOOOOM" noises! I fell flat on my stomach and started to laugh.

Shoot. I guess I didn't quite make it!

I guess next time I'll think twice before making Japanese dubbing jokes in the gym again! I still can barely lift my arms above my head...
