I'm Full Of It



















What happens when you are full of candy each and every day since Halloween? Besides the inevitable butt spread I'm left feeling a bit sluggish. Sugar highs lead to crashing lows. With no caffeine to boost me along I need to get moving, stir the blood pooled in my nether regions from constant blogging.

During the summer I used to pull the weeds out of our lawn. It doesn't sound like much but we have an over sized yard filled with Johnson grass. Those weeds grow tall and their roots are deep. You have to give them quite a tug to get them out. I've yanked a thousand Johnsons at least.

Now with the Holidays in full swing, I need some extra energy. I need a new exercise regimen. What to do.

It can't be anything that seems like exercise. My body has a unique survival instinct whereas if I move too vigorously and produce even a drop of perspiration, my whole system shuts off supplies of energy and shoots them straight to storage facilities in the butttox, leaving me drained and unable to remain in an upright position.

So I need to sneak some extra movement into my day. Dear readers do you have any tips for me? What do you do to add a bit more movement into your day?

  6. Extra movement... um... well, sometimes I stretch... or ... um... yawn a little more. Sometimes I shift my weight from one butt cheek to the other or maybe cross my feet... yeah... I got nothing. One thing that I did enjoy a long time ago was swimming. Something you can take at your own pace, but always a work out because of the resistance the water has as you move through it... or something like that... maybe you should visit Elastic's Dollar General... sounds like that place would get you moving... good luck!

  7. A long time ago I saw the Bruce Lee story where he had these wires on his body that gave him electric charges. I think it was to strengthen his muscles. You can try that... although he did die but I'm sure that was because of his curse.

    Don't worry NCS Johnson grass doesn't grow as far north as you are, no yanking required

    OK, I'm glad you're done with coffee but now we need to work on the sugar.

    Oh, who are we kidding? Miss Cupcake Queen is giving you sugar advice?

    I'd say, go for walks but don't be all anal about it, like, changing your clothes for it or taking along a pedometer or checking your heart rate... just go outside and walk around. If you want, you can run like Phoebe sometimes.

  13. if I ran like phoebe the neighbors might start thinking I'm weird

  15. 10 minute Pilates DVD. I love it! I can do anything for 10 minutes. Or run up and down stairs. Park far away from the store entrances.

  16. Aside from regular trips to get ice and water from the fridge I have nothing to add. I did bust up laughing about your yanking a thousand Johnsons. Those were definitely not visions of sugarplums dancing in my head1 BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
    AHAHAHAHAHA!!!

  17. Get a treadmill that generates power and plug your computer into it. If you stop running the computer goes off and you lose everything you were doing. Watch the pounds fall off.

  25. Having your head lopped off will take care of ten pounds, pretty much immediately. And you'll never have to worry about being active again.

    Don't say the title either JK...horrible. I only watched one of those "reaction videos", before I knew. And I don't.

    So anyway, what's up with you?

  39. Extra energy...let me know when you find it! I would say add lots of caffeine to that sugar high and get yourself a two year old. That keeps me on my toes. Until 8:00 p.m. anyway. :)
