Feeling Pretty Proud of Myself

This is the third day of having the treadmill in the house and the third day that I have worked out! I am so freaking proud of myself that I can't even begin to tell you. :) Somehow I just *knew* that if I could get a treadmill into the house that I would be dedicated enough about my personal goal of working out that it would see some seriously good use. The first day I did 30 minutes, yesterday I did 25 minutes and today I did another 30. Yesterdays was less because I didn't have time in the morning to work out because of needing to get Kaylen to the doctor so I wasn't able to squeeze in any time until after Dakota got home from work. My goal had been to get in 15 minutes no matter what so I was delighted to get in another 10.

So how long does it take to start seeing progress? I'm not a very patient person. *laughing*

But here is something that sort of bugs me. The machine is in our bedroom and positioned so that I could watch the tv as a distraction. Of course since I have children running about, the only tv I am seeing is Dora, Barney or something of the sort. Not exactly as distracting as I had hoped so instead I am spending my time looking around the room finding things that I would like to clean up, fix up and out and out change.

One of things I look at is the bathroom vanity, which until I looked it up today I had no clue what it was actually called. I always call it "the sink in my room" as in "Will you please go put this on the counter near the sink in my room?" But who knew that they are actually called bathroom vanities. Ok, maybe everyone else on the planet but still! :) Our bathroom vanity is mostly really great, I mean, it does its job and all but the more I stare at it, the more I realize how incredibly handy a double sink would be! Not that I have any plans of upgrading it but still - it would be really nice.

Another thing is, I'd really, really like to have the entire room repainted. Did you read that Dakota? *laughing* Yeah yeah, I know.....some day. :)

But seriously...I am so loving having the treadmill!!! :)

(Hahahahahah! I just added tags to this post and I actually got to write "working out" and I just find that so funny!!! Yay me!!!!)
