So, my adventure with Kinetix ended about a month ago. A little depressing, and yet at the same time, I felt really rather accomplished. I lost 12 pounds in 2 months! YAY!
The awesome thing is, I can KEEP on the training and meal plans as long as I want. :) Although I can't really afford to do much of anything anymore, because I'm pretty broke. But I still have my gym membership, and will still be frequenting the 24 Hour Fitness.
A lot's gone on, and I really haven't been keeping up on this blog like I wanted to.
I had my 6 month review about a month ago. Went pretty well, all things considered. I found out that my coworkers think I'm nit-picky, bossy, and easily distracted. I also tend to interject into other peoples conversations with customers. But on a lighter note, I'm also the most punctual, and one of the top 3 better workers at our store, so that works out.
I got to hang out with my dad a few days ago. He's doing pretty well. Although, I think I might have bored him a little bit.. It was raining the whole time he was here, and I didn't particularly want to go to San Francisco.. Felt a little bad, since his girlfriend's never been there, but I'm sure she'd rather go when it's NOT raining and ugly out.
But we had a lot of fun. Ate a lot, laughed a lot, reminisced a lot.. It was good times.
Kind of excited about this tidbit, and yet embarrassed at the same time.. I was making dinner and I was getting pretty agitated at the state of the pots and pans I was using. My roommate has some pretty sad looking, well used, 'had their day' pots and pans. Particularly the pans.. He has a tendency to scrub until nothing's left, and then put them in the dishwasher. Which I've been told is incredibly BAD for your pots and pans.
Anyway, I had mentioned to Carole that I needed a new pan, rather flippantly. The last day they were here, we went to the mall instead of San Francisco, because it was raining. And they wouldn't let me leave the Macy's until I'd picked out a brand new SET of pots and pans. The Calphalon Unison Nonstick 10-Piece Cookware Set. I wasn't sure whether to smack them both for spending so much, or to cry because someone was actually buying me something so COOL AND AMAZING!
I'm leaning towards cry right now.
We pre bought so that we could get another 25% off.. So I can't even touch them until Wednesday.. :(
I'm so excited, though! I've been contemplating what to make, and I'm not even sure! It's gotta be something amazing! It's the christening run.. I just stole me African Cuisine cookbook back from my brother.. Maybe I'll find something from there that I'd like to make..
Just gonna say, it's more than likely.
There's a red rice recipe I'd like to try.. And a few fish recipes in there that look pretty good..
Who want's to come over for dinner?
I'm making myself hungry.
