Sushi and Yoga For The Win

You guys. . . I went to bed to this.

And woke up to this . . .

I think it’s fairly safe to say that the two baby furballs of the Jara family REALLY miss their daddy and the relentless attention that he gives them every waking moment.   I miss him too, furballs.  I miss him, too ❤

Wednesday Morning

As I mentioned in yesterday’s post, my beloved iPhone was replaced yesterday, which more so than anything else means that I have my awesome iPhone camera and normal blogging can resume.

Workout

I was able to wake up fairly easily yesterday morning,  so I wasn’t in a rush for time.  That meant that not only did I get to spend some time walking Gusman, that I also got to do a 30 minute strength session.

  • 8 minute ABS
  • 8 minute ARMS
  • 8 minute BUNS

That’s right friends.  I am back to being one major cliche and absolutely loving the quick 8 minute strength sessions for my very early mornings.  There really is something to be said about getting your heart rate up a bit first thing in the morning, even if it is brief.

Moving on. . . I make it to work by 8 AM this morning and went until about 4 PM.  Not too shabby.

Oh the things that get me through the day . . .

I have been LOVING fresh, cold apples and honey roasted peanuts this week.  There is something about the mix of the two snacks that leave me SO satisfied.

Anybody else have any good mix treats they enjoy during their long work days?  

Work Out

 Because I was able to leave work a little earlier than anticipated, I rewarded myself with a Hot Power Fusion yoga class at Core Power Yoga.

You guys, I gotta admit.  I felt pretty darn good during this class.  My brain was running a million miles per minute,  but the instructor was seemingly picked for me, because she was magically able to slow down those thought processes.  She had a focus on “rooting ourselves” through out the entire class that really helped me to focus on the moment and the moves that I was in in that second.   In the end, it was probably one of the best HPF classes I’ve ever had, and I feel like because of that I was able to perform better than I ever have as well.  Woot!

Reward Dinner

And because I had already began the rewards, I decided I earned some sushi and chips for dinner tonight as well.

Well earned, and well deserved.

Oh, and a small cheesecake.  Just because, you know.

Just one more day of work and one more night until we’re off to New York!
