Week 22 - All Guac'd Up!

I spent $13 and bought enough ingredients to make guacomole in two different ways. Last night, I used this "easy" recipe to make a very tasty batch of guacomole. With my goal accomplished, I left the slightly harder recipe to make later this week.

Haven't picked a goal for this week yet, but it might have something to do with forming my team for a beach ultimate tournament next weekend.

Week 21 - All Shot Up

As of Thursday night at 6:15, I'm hereby immune from measles, mumps, rubella, and tuberculosis :) After waiting about a year to get the shots, they only took me about 2 minutes to receive. My right arm was a bit sore for a few days after.

This week, I have a fun goal - make guacamole. Never tried, but I love the stuff, and I'm going to give it a go this week!

Week 20 - Back to the Gym

Although it doesn’t sound like much, after a few disappointments, I was able to take some positive steps last week, including accomplishing my goal of returning to the gym for a hard workout. I’d been slacking off big time, and the work out felt extra tough after 10 days away from the gym.

This week’s goal is also straight forward – get some shots that I’ve been putting off for almost a year. Immunization should be more of a priority for someone who was sick for more of last winter. Here’s hoping that getting the shots is an easy win…since I need to build a few of those up

Week 19 - Definitely Failure!

Got cut from the ultimate team I was trying out for on Tuesday. C'est la vie. As of tonight, I got picked up for 4 tournaments this summer (plenty for this old body)...and will look to find a team for Northern Flights. Rather than the setback relating to ultimate, life's pretty sweet right now.

Promise to blog more consistently, and well-roundedly going forward :P

Week 18 - Failure? Or Extension?

Last week's goal was simple - make an ultimate team as a handler. I didn't make it, but was offerred an extended tryout this weekend at TUF. I'm struggling to stay optimistic, but have a great support system who are pulling hard for me to come through this weekend. Whatever happens, I plan on giving it my all.
