Back Again

well i'm back again! i'm going to try this blog thing again, hopefully i'll keep it up this time. the latest news is we've added a new member to the family, i'm working in the oil industry, the wife is working from home as a free-lance editor and i don't have a car, i now drive a scooter to work when it's not below 50 degrees. i'm still working 2 jobs for the time being. i'm hoping to change this in the near future.

in other news, the wife and i are doing P90X together and loving it! we're both leaning out and building muscle. (i'm building muscle, she's just leaning out) this time around it's a lot better having someone to do it with. She pushes me and i push her which make the workouts more intense. we're in the 5th week of the program and we've got 7 weeks to go.

we started off the year by eating healthier and going off pop/soda. i still have the pepsi & sugar cravings on occasion. it's been easier to stay off pop and sugar when my wife is my accountability partner. she'll get on to me if i make a comment about eating or drinking something bad. our goals are to feel and be a healthier family. so far, so good and i can't wait to see the results in 7 weeks from now physically inside and out.

adios,

isaac ;)

p90x wow!

chest and back was an amazing workout, it left me pumped and drained of juice. all i have to say is 1day down 89 to go. not sure if i should post pics of my progress :/ ? well see if not i will def post some when i'm done. i'm looking forward to today's workout, i hear it's pretty challenging.

longest and toughest

today i'm starting the longest and toughest new years resolution ever. i'm doing P90X for 90 days!!! i've heard people say it's too hard and other people say you're crazy for trying it. i'm going to prove these people wrong. the workouts are about an hour each with a warm up and a cool down in the hour. i'm not sure how hard it's going to be at the beginning, all i know that in 90 days i will be at my physical goals. i'll be posting as i go through the workout so keep checking back.

manners

i wish more people would be polite and courteous to one another. there are a few people that i interact with on a daily basis that are rude and ugly to people. it bugs the crap out of me when someone can't say "please" or "thank you" all they care about is what's going on in their bubble. so if someone gets the door for you or lets you go ahead in traffic say "thank you" you never know what kind of impact you can make on someone. say please to a barista at Starbucks or a server at restaurant when ordering. let's be a little nicer to each other.

stop and think

i have the day off again due to rain, so i think i'm going take all day to do some thinking. maybe workout too and spend sometime with the family. i love my life :)

slacker

so i've been a slacker, i haven't been blogging in quite sometime. work was really busy then it got really wet. so i've been out trying to get work on my own while the weather is bad. i've also been spending a lot of time with andie and joy, which has been really good. i'll try to blog as much as a i can. i twitter like crazy so you can follow me at twitter.com/isaacabad

catch you on the flip side.

crazy weather

today andie and i are flying solo at home while joy is at a conference. so far it's been a good morning. she ate her breakfast and we played, then she went down for a nap. when she gets up i'm hoping the rest of the day goes well too. she is such a great kid, i couldn't have asked for a better daughter. while she was eating this morning it started snowing and she was just mesmerized by the snow(she started smiling and laughing at the snow) she still can't crawl but she'd rather start running, not walking but running. i have a had time keeping up with her because my back starts to hurt from being hunched over. when i hear her laugh all that pain goes away (well most of it)
