Hobby vs Obligation

I'm seriously slacking again in the blog front- I've updated more consistently this week (because I've worked out more consistently) but I haven't read other blogs at all. I'm sorry.

It's because I started reading the 4th book in the Twilight series on Sunday and haven't been able to put it down! I have enjoyed the books so far but that's one thing I do not like about them- once I start reading, I can't stop!

I'm officially done now so I can start my life again. lol

Okay, so it's not THAT bad but they're very easy reads so yeah, I guess you just keep reading.

One thing I have not done this week is practice the piano. I guess my piano teacher will not be giving me any stickers or candy tomorrow during my weekly lesson. Bummer. Here's my take on it though-

I'm okay with not practicing and I'm not going to feel bad about it. Learning to play the piano is something I want to do, but it's something I want to ENJOY doing. I don't want it to become an obligation. Ever. So this past week, I was into my book, not into the piano, so what did I do? I read, and did not practice. The desire to play the piano was not there and I wasn't going to force myself to do it because it totally defeats the purpose of why I started it up in the first place.

So that's that.

Now I just have to tell my piano teacher. lol

So tonight after work I headed to the gym and did the following PULLworkout:
3 rounds of 4 reps
Pull-ups (did as strict as possible, knees/legs came up to give me a slight boost)
Bentover rows dumbbell rows (20#)
Wide grip lat pull downs (60#)
superset with
Hammer curls (20#)
Narrow grip cable row (60#)
superset with
Bicep curls (15#)

I'm proud of the pull-ups. I haven't done those in a while and I was able to do 11 of the 12 fairly strict.

11 days 'til we move! Wahoo! It's coming so fast!

Until tomorrow,
