Some thoughts and discussions from me.

Good morning, and happy Friday!

Man, did this week go by fast, or what? It likely had to do with having Monday off, and the rest of the week busy. Yesterday I worked from 6:00am to 7:00pm with only a few short breaks in between, but I am definitely not complaining.

1. I just finished Weeds on Netflix last night.

Seasons 1-4? GOOD. Seasons 5-7? Wacky… But still good I guess. Anyway, now I need a new series to watch on Netflix! Already watched/watching include Breaking Bad, Sons of Anarchy, and Parks and Rec. Any suggestions?

2. I feel really…healthy.

I was talking to Shane the other day about how I have been sleeping SO well for the past few months. It’s crazy – I’ve never slept well in my life, and here I am sleeping from 9:30 until when my alarm goes off (today it went off way too early, though.) When I thought about it more, I could go on to say that I think I’m the healthiest I’ve been in years – possibly in my whole life! From sleep, to hormonal health, to strength, to a feeling of well being, I feel really, really healthy.

3. I re-stocked on my favorite almond butter:

I was out of almond butter, relying on peanut butter for a few weeks. Then, Vitacost had a buy 1 get 1 half off sale, so I stocked up on my faves – plain almond butter and maple almond butter Smile Let’s see how long they last Winking smile (PS – you can get $10 off your first Vitacost order by using this link!) Also, I love Vitacost because of their customer service. See how that maple one’s label is a little dark? Well, the seal had broken during shipping (things inflate when traveling to Colorado, a mile above sea level) and some oil had gotten on the container. I let them know, and they’re sending me a replacement jar! Good customer service rocks.

4. Lookie what came in the mail last weeek…

Yep! I’m going to be a certified Spinning Instructor! I start teaching this fall, and am taking my (9 hr – eek!) instructor training next weekend. I’ve wanted to do this for a while, and am finally taking the plunge! I’ve been getting some tips from Lauren, who has taught spin for a couple years, now, too.

5. I started reading the book, Zoo, by James Patterson the other day…

I was flying through the book, riveted by the storyline, albeit it being a bit out there. Last night I noticed I was already 95% through it, thinking, “man, how did that happen??” Come to find out, I only had the SAMPLE of the book on my Kindle. As soon as I reached 100% I got a big ol’ “Continue Reading ZOO, by purchasing here!” Doh.

A few housekeeping items:

-The winner for the GoodPops Giveaway still hasn’t contacted me. If you won, please send me an email Smile yourtrainerpaige@gmail.com

-Have a great weekend! Shane and I might be planning our second 14-erWinking smile

Any series suggestions for Netflix?

How’s your sleep?

I’ve been on both sides of the fence, and insomnia or disrupted sleep sucks!
