Random Musings ;)

Today, some random musings I thought I would share.  They are things that have come to mind, but don't quite warrant a blog unto themselves.

Naps are a truly wonderful thing.

Growing your hair out is a very large pain, especially if you look terrible in a baseball hat.
A:  I am ALWAYS growing my hair out.
B:  I look terrible in a baseball hat.

My husband adores speaker-phone.  I abhor speaker-phone.

Bike rides on a beautiful sunny day are good for the soul.

Did you know that you can make a perfect omelette every time without fail if you place two beaten eggs and any fillings you want (cheese, veggies, cooked sausage, etc.) in a quart size ziploc bag, place the bag in a pot of boiling water, boil for 12 minutes, and ,voila!, the perfect omelette.  Really, it works, go try it!

Why are there overweight personal trainers?  It seems to me that anyone that chooses that profession is someone who inherently loves working out 24/7 and eating nothing but celery, but apparently not.  What is even more perplexing to me, however, is why anyone would hire an overweight trainer for $70, $80, $100 or more an hour to tell them how not to be overweight.  It is one of life's great mysteries.

Yoga is one of my new favorite things.  The last time I was in class I even did "The Crow" granted it was only for about 5 seconds and not 5 minutes like the instructor or the 50 year old guy with the ponytail, but still I did it!

"Mean people suck."  Stolen from a bumper sticker I admit, but a more profound statement you would be hard pressed to find.

Blasting your favorite "old school" song on your iPod, singing at the top of your lungs, and dancing your feet off is also good for the soul.

I saw a print commercial (in a woman's magazine) for the Wii gaming system that seemed to be implying that it was a good workout. Does anyone else think this may be just a little bit of a stretch?  Granted it is tons of fun, and if you are really into it, I could see breaking a sweat, but a workout?

Being loved by a child is a heady experience.

Have a lovely Monday.  If you have any "random musings" you would care to share, I would love to hear 'em.

I am SO trying that omelette trick, as mine always taste great, but look terrible! Thanks!

As for overweight trainers, my friend and I took a Pilates class and she QUIT on me because she said the instructor didn't have that great a body! I didn't care as much, since she didn't look that bad, but it was reason enough for my friend!

Love the omlette trick and will try it the next time I have eggs in the house...I go through so many making box brownies.

I will have try omlette trick. I hope you're not pulling my leg because I'm going to show off to my wife.

I wouldn't call the Wii a good workout, but I did see on the news about a guy who lost a lot of weight by playing sports on the Wii.

Thanks for the comments guys. Yes, I promise the recipe works, no pulling anybody's leg. The key though is the QUART size bag. They are thicker than a sandwich size, which DOES NOT work. I found that out the hard way!

Hi!
Abhor speaker phone, too.
Cool eggs recipe. I'll have to try it.
Love yoga with every part of me, but rarely do it. Why? I don't know.
Thanks for the visit and comment!
Have a great day.

Talking to your daughter every day is a wonderful thing. Pilates is great for the body & soul. A good game of golf is also good for the soul. Did anyone report the hooligans to the police?

Nintendo is actually coming out with a balance board, much like the "step", that will be used for a fitness game that is supposed to be released in the next year.
