New Necklace and WOTD

Here is my entry, Nebulous, for the Etsy Beadweavers March challenge, Am I Blue? You can view the actual listing HERE. For this challenge we were encouraged to use the March birthstone Aquamarine, a/o Turquoise, a/o Tanzanite, individually or together, the more blue the better. Over 16 different shades, finishes, and sizes of blue beads were used; matte, pearl, metallic, silver lined, bugle, triangles, cubes, turquoise, teal, aquamarine, zircon, navy, royal, sky, etc.

WOTD =


and Super Cardio Dance Party from the new Zumba Incredible Results set...

Wow, this was a step up in intensity from the last set and had really good music. Very fun!

WOTD

Today I did:




And:

I only did Cardio 1. I've always liked Richard Simmons and really appreciate that he uses good vocal music. This workout was no exception. This workout was 20 minutes and had 4 songs. #1 was a remix of The Rolling Stones' Satisfaction, song #2 was a remix of Summer of '69, I did not recognize the third song at all, and song #4 was a remix of We Got the Beat. The moves were simple dancey aerobics, beginner level = grapevines, v-steps, cha chas, side steps while playing air guitar or swinging your arms, etc. It was fun. I won't be following his rotation as I get bored easily and like to do whatever strikes my fancy each day.

Checking In

Just checking in. Have been busy completing a new jewelry project, but have been doing a lot of Happy Hormones - love this DVD! Seems like older style Raviana, which I prefer.





Today I did Back in Shape and really like it.




My birthday is coming up and I know my husband got me the new Zumba Incredible Results set, can't wait to try it! Love Zumba and this new one looks like so much fun.

Happy New Year!

I had a wonderful Christmas, despite being sick, have been for a couple weeks now - I suspect a cold into a sinus infection. But I still managed to enjoy the holidays with loved ones. My husband has a few more days off still, so I am taking time off until he goes back to work and until my head & sinuses stop hurting. I've been doing some stretches and some OT related work on the stability ball almost daily and will continue since it seems to help me relax and sleep.

A few fitness related Christmas gifts that I received & can't wait to try:



 

 

 

 



Workouts

After all the snow yesterday I am hurting from shoveling multiple times. My knee is still weird - feels off/out of alignment, but I am taking it easy and being careful when I walk or do anything. Despite being sore from shoveling the snow, today I did:





Deal Alert!
