Hoppy Birthday!

I made this last night for the sketch challenge on splitcoast. I was able to use some more of my Cosmo Cricket ‘Hey Sugar’ papers! Le sigh!!!! I just love Cosmo Cricket!

This card should be getting some use soon. Between Sean’s family and friends and my family and friends we have about 17 birthdays in March to celebrate! Yowzas!!! It’s good to have some cards stockpiled for next month. And there are several male birthdays too, so I’ll have to lay off the pink, ribbon and sparklies!

This set by Melanie Muenchinger is just so cute. You can find it HERE on Gina K’s site. I’m pretty sure this set will get nice and inky before March even hits, the frog is calling my name!

So let me ask you a question……

Have you ever worked out so hard you wanted to throw up? Because that’s what happened this morning at the gym. My trainer I believe is out for blood!!! She looks all cute and innocent, but I’m starting to see her true self! It was odd because I didn’t do anything I haven’t done before, but I had just not done it in the order she had me do it and that kicked my butt! Just in case your wondering what my hour was like I’ll break it down;
Elliptical for 25, the scariest freakiest hardest stair machine for 15 (honest, I’ve never seen a stair machine like this before!) Pull ups and dips, then more pull ups and dips, crunches and then leg and arm lifts.

I haven’t done pull ups for a couple months, she had been torturing me with lots of free weights and medicine ball work. I do not like pull ups. I remember in junior high and elementary I would refuse to do them. And I don’t remember any of the girls being able to do them either.

We used to have the hardest gym tests, did you? They made us climb the rope to the ceiling (I have told my trainer to not even THINK about asking me to do that!) pull ups, sit ups, and then we had a wall with holes in it and you would climb up the wall by holding big sticks in your hands and putting them in the holes, no feet just arms. And of course running.

Somehow even though homework has multiplied by a billion for kids now I’m guessing that P.E. just isn’t as tough. I know some schools don’t even have P.E. And they don’t play dodge ball anymore. How are you supposed to learn to dodge?

Anyway, enough of me rambling about my physical pain and tales of yore. I have 2 projects I’m hoping to finish tonight, and they are very different for me. But for now I’m sitting on my behind because I don’t want to move!
