oh baby baby nice nice babe'

That was the song I worked out to this morning in body sculpting class. Along with ice ice baby and other oldies. It was a trip down high school lane. I am so proud of myself. It is now three weeks going strong. I see and feel a difference. I do not have a scale so do not know how much I have lost and don't really care about that. I just need to look better.
So I was a big show off today. Since I advanced to the 5 pound dumbbell I thought I would push myself a little. Well the other women had 8 pound dumbbells and there weren't anymore. I could resort to the 10 or 12 pound and the 10 pounder won. I had the 3, 5 and 10 pound weights. So we had to squat and and do some lifting only on the left side. I had to pull my elbow back and then down again. We also had to change to lifting the arm straight out to the side. I used the 10 pound weight and felt real good. I kept thinking that I would soon get the Hollywood stars arms. I had this vision and worked through the pain. When we had to work the right arm I almost died. I could barely lift the 10 pounds weight. I reached for the 5 pound one. Half way through working out the right arm I could not help but think about this silly thing. Okay you know how it is the truth that is rarely spoken. Most women have one boob smaller than the other. Well I kept thinking if I continued this way with different weights my one arm would be bigger and I would look weird. I have got to strengthen that right arm. I am not left handed so what is up with that ?
I had to skip the mat Pilate's today as Priyasha always looks forward to story time at the library. We raced home and I took a much needed shower, It was 9:45 and I had 15 to get out of the house. I raced and got dressed. I stripped as I ran across to the bathroom from the front door. It looked like a hot scene out of a movie. The only thing hot about it was the shower. LOL !!! Behind me was little Priyasha copying me. It was funny to see her naked too but I had no time to let her take a shower with me. I left home at 10:00 and had 15 min to get to the library. I was a few min late but all was well. After that we went out to Indian food for lunch. I met a few other moms. One of them I met a few weeks ago at the library. I have only talked with her twice at the library. She has a two year old little boy and is expecting her second child. We got to know each other and I learned that she was married to an Indian guy for 10 years before they got divorced. We talked about the different ways to cook Indian food and I was impressed by how much she knew and she was American. She has a real interest and I may teach her a few things.
It was a crazy morning and the afternoon was no different. Priayasha fell asleep in the car on the way home and while she slept I planned dinner. I husked the corn on the cob and prepared Chicken Parmesan. When Pravan got home we went to the playground at 4:15 and he played for 30 min. I then raced him to his kids fitness program. He loves it and he gets real tired running around. I off course love that. I put dinner in the oven and we did school work. Hubby was home at 7pm. Dinner took longer to cook so the kids both got baths and then it was time for bed. Shweeee ! I am so exhausted.
Tomorrow it will start all over again.
