Quick

I'm pretty cranky right now, probably due to the fact that I haven't eaten in 4 hours and I worked out in there somewhere and still haven't eaten, which makes for a cranky KelsaLynn.

Therefore, this will be quick because I need to get something in my belly!

First things first, Michael found out on Friday that he'll actually be getting paid for his time off when we go home in May. Originally, we were under the impression that he only has one day off paid per year (but I guess we were wrong). Part of our $3,000 budget was to make up for the lost income. So, scratch that! YAHOO! Our budget went from $3,000 for our trip in May to $2,057. That's exciting news!

Second, I did my 5 burpees for today! I'm also happy to report that I have one person joining me on this journey to complete 100 burpees- TriDave from this blog. Check it out and cheer him on too!

Third, today's workout was actually yesterday's FITR workout.

The POWER workout was first- 3 rounds of 5 reps of a snatch and then hang power cleans. I did the first round light without really knowing what weight I should use. So the 2nd and 3rd rounds were a heavier.
Snatch: 45#, 65#, 65#
HPC: 65#, 85#, 85#

Then I did CORE. 21-15-9 reps of the following:
Ball slams (16# ball)
Rollouts
Russian Twists (12# ball)
Plank (30 seconds, 25 seconds, 20 seconds)

Fourth, I had another piano lesson today and I'm happy to report I've moved on to Level II in my technique book. I know that doesn't sound like much, but I've had 4 lessons so far so to go from Level I to Level II is pretty exciting! I feel like I've had very little time to practice in the past month so I'm proud of my progress.

Finally, the Valley is experiencing one hell of a storm night- the kind with thunder and lightening. I love it! We don't get that many storms here so when we do, I try to enjoy them. I hope it sticks around for a while because I love falling asleep to a good storm.

Okay, time to get some food in my belly! I hope everyone has a fabulous week.

Here are some pictures from our trip to see the Globetrotters yesterday. We had a great time!

Here's Yulie & her dad Ben. Isn't she cute?

Here's Eric (Ben's son)...he loves Michael and held onto his arm like this most of the show!

Here's the whole lot of us!
