still lazy

what the heck am I going to do??? I need motivation. I need something to get me off the couch.

being jet lagged doesn't help...the last week i've been in St. John's, NL and I'm exhausted now back in Vancouver trying to figure out what day it is and what's going on.

any ideas?

It's all about the FloorPlay

last night i went back in time to a period of my life which i must admit wasn't really all that great. it was when i was 12 years old and had to play games in gym class. games such as dodge ball, hand ball and floor hockey. last night i played floor hockey. as expected i have not developed a great love for those intramural sports that you played while growing up. so you wonder why would someone want to play a game that they don't really like. one word answer. Friends.

our team, FloorPlay, is full of great people with a lot of enthusiasm. and the jokes, oh dear the jokes. with a name like FloorPlay i think it's expected that we don't take ourselves too seriuosly. we are all about having fun and hopefully not getting beat up while playing against the other teams. we don't have scheduled lines, we don't have set plays, we don't have a superstar BUT we do have fun. that is the only reason why i'm playing. these people are fun.

*sniffle**sniffle*

i'm alive.

i'm back.

i'm working a lot of hours this week.

floor hockey thursday night.

going to try and get a bike ride in on Sat. AM

workout? what workout? i'm beat by the time 4pm comes around....the thought of walking anywhere let alone breaking a sweat is detremental to my health. well. my mental health.

down and out

i'm down and out for the count with a cold. sidelined from this weeks ambitions of going to the putting green to get in some extra practice, or walking anywhere for more than two blocks. this thing has wiped me out.

i have watched Breakfast At Tiffany's and exhorbent amount of times now. it is my favorite movie and the best movie to rest too.

Putts

After a Saturday of shopping, drinking and dancing...dancing is s a good workout right? I hit the links on Sunday morning.

Well not actually the links, more like the putting green. And it was a group lesson. But I now can putt and my core really got a good work out as well as my shoulders and back muscles. It was insanely hard for 1 hour of work.

Now I just have to shake this cold I just got this morning and get in some practice during the week.

weekend warrior....kind of.

as the weekend approaches i have to make a plan and stick to it. i think it's safe to assume i'm not one for the gym, so i'm trying to do things that are active.

currently i'm just talking the talk.

walk more. nope.

start running. not allowed. esp after my softball flight experiment, my knee is still not 100% and therefore i'm a bit skeptical to strain it.

floor hockey. starts in a couple weeks. playing with a team whose main idea is to have fun. i hate floor hockey so therefore i'm hoping i won't be competative about winning vs losing and therefore have fun. our captain has yet to call a team meeting so we don't even have a name yet. but hopefully we will soon, as the puck drops two weeks from now.

next on the to do list is golf. i start golf lessons on Sunday. i don't necessarily have the 300 to pay for them, that's what a credit card is for, but it should be good. i'm going to hit up Golf Town tomorrow morning and see if i can get a sweet deal on golf shoes and pants as the golf season is coming to an end. got to at least look the part. after i learn to play a bit i should be able to hit the island with some pals and strut my stuff on the links. or learn how to drink and play at the same time.

it's a busy weekend, but i'd also like to get in a bike ride or a walk. if i had foresight i would have worn my runners to work so i could walk the 45 min home today. but alas, i'm going to have to hit home and then find the gumption to get off the couch and change into comfy's and go for a walk as the sun sets. something tells me this part of my plan is not really thought out. at least i have a watch that works again. this should make it easier...no?

weekend fun, here i come.

non-athletic

Nothing healthy or excercise worthy of my weekend, unless bicep curls and a drinking game called Penalty Shots is sportif enough.

Time to work.
