TV Show - Lost

OMG - my hubby has been watching all the Lost episodes. One of his co-workers let him borrow the Lost series episodes. We're on Season 3! It's getting good. Although I haven't seen each episode like hubby, what I've seen is really good. It's definitely like a soap-opera show. I wish it would go quicker. I'm just very impatient. No wonder I stick strictly with movies now!!! I don't mind some Korean dramas that are only 16 episodes but I hate sappy-love stories.

While watching Lost, I realize that the ladies on the island are so fit! I want Evangeline Lilly's body! She's my new girl crush. She's slim but very tone. Her characer is Kate on the show.

Kaiser Permanente Corporate Run/Walk

Wow, I'm a bit sore this morning. Last night at the Run/Walk, I was able to run half and walk the other half. It felt great!!! Well, not this morning but it was a huge accomplishment for me. Next year, I will do the run and train for it too. I'm excited. Not sure if I'll still be at the same company but I'm going to do it!! It'll help me lose lots more weight, be active, and energetic. I was very impress running with one of my heavy-set coworker. Dang, he can out-run me!!!!

While I was running downhill, I heard my name. One of my ex-coworker saw me! OMG, it was so great to reunite with her! I haven't seen her in years! Since I'm competitive, I didn't walk with them too long and continued running afterwards. Later I was looking for their company's tent but unable to do so. There were so many companies there! Over 200, I believe! The event was huge. Got a lot of freebies! Loving it! Protein granola bars and smooties everywhere! Vitamin water and bottled water too.

Bitten by fleas & workout

My dog Puchy got a lot of fleas. I still love her to death though. She's an 8-year-old Min Pin. We've had her since she was a year old and is a part of the family. Never ever have we had a flea problem until several months ago. All these stupid stray dogs are running around in the neighborhood infested with fleas!! They come to our yard and then Puchy goes outside to pee and voila - Puchy gets it, brings it in the house...then we all get it. Puchy's been sleeping in the garage since then. We bathe her daily, comb her hair, flea-bomb the place twice!! I'm over it. My leg looks so nasty now with all the flea bites. I must have some yummy, juicy, sweet blood that the fleas keep coming back to me and biting me! Only me! Well, my daughter, but not as bad as me! Urgh! They have been areas as my butt, back, thighs, arms, chest, and even neck!! My ankle and feet area are the worse though. I'm so pissed off at Cook's Pest Control - they stood me up twice! I set up appointments and they never showed up. So hubby said forget it. He got some advise from people at work and he's treating the house their way. I've ordered medicine for Puchy and should get it in the mail today. Hopefully!!

On a brighter note, I've been working out again. Just slowly doing it again. I've been idle for a month or so because of hectic life at work and home. Although I say I prefer to work out in the morning, I have been doing it in the late evenings. My typical workout is jump roping. I love that! I usually jump rope for 30 mins. How I calculate it is if I do 600 jump ropes - that's equal to 10 mins worth. So I do 3 sets of 600 jump ropes to equal 1800 jump ropes and 30 mins. I may go over or a little less but it pretty much balances out.

I feel great after the workouts. I eat less, have more energy. However, I don't see a significant amount of weight loss on the scale but I feel great in my clothes. Hubby hugged me yesterday and told me that I've lost weight cause he can't pull on my extra, snuggled skin like he did a few days ago. Yah! Sucess!

Haberno peppers & Karma

Oh gosh, my stomach is killing me!!! Well, the deal is I love hot and spicy food! Yummy! I can eat a whole jar of jalepeno peppers. That's how much I love spiciness. Me likes some spice in my life. I love to spice up my food so much that hubby grew a veggie garden full of Thai red peppers, jalepenos, and haberno peppers. Yummy!!! Usually when I cook chicken stir fry, I add any of the peppers for flavor. Then I save a portion for me and stir in more peppers for my dish. Last night after work, I came home to cook some chicken breast stir fried with sliced green beans. Add in about four haberno peppers and two red jalepeno peppers. It was so yummy. Then mix it with Jasmine rice. Oh my goodness. A few hours later, my stomach was killing me!!!! Oh gosh, I've never had my stomach feel this upset ever! My stomach is even killing me this morning!! That's what I get. When I ate the food, it was so tasty though...lol

Do you believe in Karma? I do to a certain extent. I believe in the "what comes around goes around even harder" way. Not calling anyone out cause I would hate to do that. There are a handful of people who have made my life miserable. So miserable that I was in a state of depression a few years ago. I feel bad for them now but yet have a sense of joy, I know I may sound evil and get crucify for saying this but their lives are not so well now. When I first hear about it, my first instant was sorrow...then later it turned to a bit of a smirk. Just thinking back how awful they have treated my family and me makes me so mad. I have forgiven them but it's not easy to forget.
