DOMS, DOMS, DOMS, DOMS, DOMS (to star wars soundtrack)

Okay, I still have delayed onset muscle soreness. I know the Star Wars melody really goes better with just DOM, but hey it is the first day of spring and I think I am slap happy and not making much sense. It is a balmy 44 out, and I walked from the gym to my car with just my Lululemon Forme on and it was glorious!! This is when everyone gets sick because they think it is now warm out all the time.

My quads are still pretty sore, but I made myself go to tabata this morning and I am so glad I did! Well, it was awful, but good awful. And I know you all know what I mean.

Did you get an email from Lululemon explaining that there was a glitch and that orders placed are being delayed? Are you kidding me? Another snafu. I guess that is why the stock is still below 50. Holy moly get it together!

Here is the Cadet blue CRB and it looks a lot brighter in these pictures than it does in person. I do love it and I think it may be a keeper. I also wore my energy bra and groove crops, of course.

Where is the love? I mean, where is the Lululemon forthright 1/2 zip?

 I am waiting!

It has 26 reviews and is a five star item. How can Lululemon not be making more of these? How is it cost effective to only make a few of a certain run? I understand the special editions and capsule runs, but this seems like a no brainer.

Anyway, the only thing I bought on Tuesday's upload was the black camo CRB. I know I said no more CRBs, but I couldn't help myself. I was really hoping for a black camo Forme, but go figure. I finally got my cadet blue CRB and I was hoping to wear it today, but I slept through the step/blast class I was thinking of taking ...but I can barely walk. Yesterday's small group training was very heavy weights with lower reps. That was all fine and dandy at the time, but my quads are so, so, sore today.

Plus, I have a dermatology appointment for my annual skin check. I am surprised that skin checks are not covered like an OB appointment. But, this shouldn't surprise me at all. I think of all the sunburns I have had and the times that I spent out in baby oil baking in the sun. Who knew? Now we do. But really, it takes no time for the appointment and how can you check your back? Your scalp? Do you really know what to look for. So, at the risk of sounding like a nag, go get your skin checked!

I watched last week's Justified and how can I possibly be feeling sorry for Boyd? I read a funny thing online that the crazier Boyd's hair gets, the crazier he gets. Or vice versa. I also really liked the banter between Raylan and Eric Robert's character. To end it with Art and Raylan going at it was perfect. I have so much to catch up on. But first, oatmeal, hemp seeds and blackberries. Yummy breakfast.

Lululemon to work


Favorite thing to wear to work? Lululemon studio pants and a gap vee neck tee shirt. I look like I am ready for summer, but the rooms that I teach in are hot and cold, so I also wear a lululemon hoodie. I'm so comfortable and it is almost like being in pajamas. I don't even mind that these pants are extremely long, I just tie them and tuck them. I love the pockets and I love the fabric. BTW, my waistband rolls and it drives me nutso, but I don't care.




I didn't get a whole lot of exercising last week. In fact, there was almost none, which is unusual for me. The good thing, though, is I also didn't do a lot of eating. I don't know, I just wasn't hungry and that IS unusual. But, that was last week and this is a new week, so today I went to spin and it was very, very hard. I was wiped before I even got there because my phone rang this morning way too early.  I was unconscious so after my heart started beating again, I was up for the day. I think I made a lot of sense on the phone, since I am going to sub today for a few hours. First, I must recover from spin. It was a fast ride, which is so hard for me to hold. 100 RPMs is like nails on a chalkboard to me. I much rather sit my butt down and pedal at a high gear. Oh well. It's all good.

I can't believe there are two episodes of Walking Dead left. Psycho Lizzie! I think I was a little stressed after watching that episode and I could not settle down to go to sleep. Anyway, off to make banana bread protein pancakes. I am still using that damn immersion blender, but it gets unplugged before I do anything. My finger is still healing and half the nail is gone. It is pretty gross! And on that happy note...

Have a fun afternoon. 



Had Enough Winter?

Free sample of Secret Clinical


No hassle sample for all of us lovely ladies who "glisten.:

Can never have too much deodorant. Or is that jewelry?

And one more thing, Lululemon!!

Where is the forthright 1/2 zip??? I noticed someone at my gym wearing it and we both were saying how we would buy it up in every color and it was so comfortable and the elastic waistband was wonderful. And on and on and on.

By the way, does this remind you of your closet? It certainly looks a lot like mine.




Here I am in my Lululemon brisk bloom scoop neck tank and groove crops. And a Bangbuster to catch the sweat. That was a nice image, wasn't it? 





Let me just go on record as saying that I hate the Bachelor and everything it stands for. My teenage daughter started watching it because all of her friends do, so I decided to watch it also so I can impart my two cents. Let me say, it is up to about twenty zillion dollars right now. This guy Juan Pablo is so awful I can't stand it. This whole situation is awful and I am sure a lot of these women are lovely, but they are lovely twits. This whole thing gets me going, as you can tell. This almost makes Dance Moms tame by comparison. Give me zombies, the Yellow King, or crystal meth any day. Although, when I say all that it sounds like DSS should come knocking on my door. Better go make dinner before I have a stroke thinking about this show.


No camo? Are you kidding me?

Lululemon? Hello? I'm waiting!

After selling out online what looks like all of the camouflage print, there is nothing with camo uploaded last night? Are they done with the run or waiting to increase the hype so that the website can crash again? I don't understand that if something is that popular, why they don't make/sell more? The printed towel does NOT count. The stock could certainly use the increase, that is for sure. I am so disappointed that it was not uploaded last night. Did any of that rant make sense? Was that even English I was typing? This time change is killing me!

I did actually buy two things, though. My first since December, I think. I hope they will be keepers!

I ordered the scoop neck luon in parallel stripe. It is a little weird that the back is just black, but that is okay, I think the print would have been too busy if it all was stripe. As I have said many times, this is one of my favorite tanks. I have no idea when this was released. I just noticed it- oops.



The other was the wee are from space cadet blue CRB. I know I said I wasn't going to do this, but I really need to see what it looks like on because the print is just gorgeous.


A couple of other thoughts: I tried the transformation wrap on when it came out before (or a version of it, at least) and it was too much for me (only 5 foot 1). I was also seriously tempted by the wunder under crop roll down in heathered black, but I have never worn cotton before to workout. Lastly, I am loving the striped dot print for spring and am excited to see it in some tops. That was it, folks. 

Anyway, time to get moving for my small group training. More later!
