Mommas Back!

Today has been another busy day! I had a class to teach this morning and then a special errand- picking my mom up from the airport!

My parents left for Florida last Tuesday and while my mom came home today, my dad decided to stay an extra week and will be coming home next week. I am thrilled to have my mom back because I was starting to feel like I was living in a frat house with my brother and all his friends.

Another person who was thrilled to see her mommy?


This little girl! =)

I have yet to do a workout today because I've been spending all my free time transferring my pictures from Facebook onto my computer which I've officially finished- woohoo! I have learned my lesson and will be purchasing an external hard drive ASAP.

I'm off to head back to work for a few hours- have a great day everyone!

I'm Baaaaack!

Guess who's back...back again!

No, not Shady. (Eminem reference anyone?)

I got a call this morning saying that my computer was ready to be picked up, so after my morning classes, I headed up to Providence. I was so excited to get my computer back, however, I lost everything. All my pictures, all my videos, all my music...gone.

I'm going to take this opportunity to urge you all to back up ALL of your files. I lost some things that are irreplaceable to me and I wish I had backed everything up before. I will be purchasing an external hard drive and backing everything up from now on!!!

Since my last update, I have completed day 7 of my 5k plan. It consisted of a 5 minute warmup, 1.5 minute run, 1.5 minute walk, 2.5 minute run/2.5 minute walk (2 times), 1.5 minute run, 1.5 minute walk, then a 5 minute cool down. Which was completed on the treadmill with my new (dog) personal trainer sitting as close as possible!

I still am not quite sure if this app will really allow me to run a full 5k at the end, so far I haven't had any difficulty with the runs, but I feel as if I'm not running the full time and that's why...we will see!

I took today off from training because I was in my car or at work pretty much the whole day...lots of errands that needed to be run. Hopefully tomorrow I will complete day 8 and if it's warm enough I will run on the road so I can leave my little personal trainer at home.

Roxy continually barked at me throughout my workout and as soon as I finished and shut of the treadmill she was jumping up on top of it, trying to get me to play with her- crazy dog!

Hopefully, I will be back with pictures and all tomorrow, I will talk to you all then!

Genius Bar

So this mornings errands brought me to providence to visit the Genius Bar at the apple store. I waited for a while and a nice man named Mike came out to help me.
He took my laptop in the back and came out with the worst diagnosis possible- my hard drive is shot and needs to be completely replaced.
However, I do have to say that purchasing apple care was the best decision I ever made because the repair cost comes to a total of $0!! I almost hugged the man when he told me it would be repaired for free. Unfortunately I will lose all my pictures, files and everything on the computer but that's okay, at least I will have my computer back!!

So posts for the next few days might be a little goofy, no pictures and such. I will catch up with this when I get the chance!

Computer issues...


This blog post is being written from my iPhone because tonight I've been having some computer issues with my MacBook Pro. I have an appointment at the Genius Bar tomorrow so hopefully all will be solved then...

Today I completed my 5k training on my treadmill which made it different from my other workouts during this training plan. It was much easier then my past runs have been (probably because there were no hills I had to trudge up! 

Hopefully I'll be able to edit this post at some point to get my pictures from my workout plan on here!

It was nice to just spend the day at home today enjoying my last day of a 3 day weekend. Did everyone else have Colombus Day off as well? I've heard that some places do not give this day off which is weird to me! Must be a Rhode Island thing!
