it's a new year!







we said we would get our butts to the gym and we did.
after being on the treadmill for 40 minutes, i thought i deserved a cookie. i helped myself to two.
we started on new books - casual vacancy for me, and a korean novel for him.

i say it's been a good start already.

happy new year!

  1. Happy New Year! I've gotta get back to the gym as well. And I've been dying to read A Casual Vacancy :-)

    1. Happy New Year! I found a little odd that A Casual Vacancy has been hard to get into.. sigh. Maybe a few more pages will do the trick!

  3. Thank you Jane :) I can't seem to feel any happier and the last thing I thought I'd be doing on my blog was to inspire people. And I'm glad I managed to inspire you for that bit! And now you managed 40 instead of 30 on the treadmill and I feel so proud of you! Dancing with Richard Simmons?! I'll find a day to dance to him too, but you have such great memories. I don't remember having gym classes during elementary, ever :( And it's a new year, so here's to a new, motivated start! ♥

    1. Yes - it was great to get back on the treadmill yesterday. I actually used to spend an hour on it - 30 minutes running and 30 minutes walking fast.. just couldn't pull it off yesterday. But it still felt great! Today I'll probably have a date with Richard Simmons :) Here's to a healthy new year to you!

  5. I went to gym yesterday.
    There's shoppers next to my gym.
    When I got out of my car, I could smell DONUTS from shopper.
    I walked for an hour and all I could think was DONUTS!!!
    I think I'm gonna get one after gym today!
    Wait. You and your hubby speak Korean?
    I've been readnig a korean book called "바람이 분다 당신이 좋다"
    I love it so far :)
    Happy Wednesday, Jane!!

    1. Haha! Donuts! I would totally cave! :)
      Yes, we speak Korean. My husband is better at it than me. I can't read well in Korean though and casual speaking is much more easier than more formal talk (like news). My husband is reading 광해 right now. Happy Wednesday to you too!

  6. HAHA! I would be the one to reward myself with a cookie after running, too. Glad to know we think the same :)
