Tax Time and Fit Friday
Hey hey hey ๐ Happy Friday! Howโs your morning going?
Thanks for the sweet words about Tiffany ๐ Sheโs a cutie for sure. I already explained to Bella that theyโd be meeting today, and to please be friendly to her. Haha.
B-fast this morning was a smoothie in a bowl:
(new bowl from World Market)
-1 C almond milk
-1 scoop vanilla Sun Warrior
-frozen organic blueberries
-raw cacao powder
-nutritional yeast (for the B vitamins- I couldnโt really taste it)
-ice
-topped with 1/4 C gluten-free oats
+ peppermint tea
I had a short yoga practice in the living room (20 minute hip opener from YogaDownload.com), and cleaned up a little around here because my tax wizard friend is on the way. [We got an extension since the Pilot was deployed, but I like to get these things done as early as possible]
And now, I have to sort through these receipts before she gets here:
Itโs a total mess, but a wonder I didnโt lose them in the great Orlando move.
Have a wonderful morning and Iโll see ya after the puppies meet!
xoxo
Gina
Did anyone see Water for Elephants? I think weโll have to go tonight!!!
Just for fun: My friend Erica sent me this video, and it cracked me up.
Deployment celibacy is no joke though. Haha.
Show Me Your Fit: Thanks so much to everyone who has sent me pics! Keep em coming- I love looking at them. So fun and inspiring ๐
Julia: I am a 20-year old German girl, currently studying abroad in Warsaw, Poland.
As your blog helps me to stay motivated and upbeat on a daily basis, I thought I’d share with you the beautiful palace that I get to see each day on my morning walk. Especially if the sun is shining, my day starts off right and I am ready to tackle any tasks I have planned…Just like you, I’m really digging to-do lists…
Jessica: The attached photo shows me and and my boyfriend doing Acro Yoga. If you don’t know what it is, look it up! It’s SO MUCH FUN! And it is an amazing way to bond with your significant other, friend or complete stranger… it’s all about trust!
Gina, if you and the Pilot ever get a chance to something like this, DO IT! If he’s quite a bit taller/bigger than you (like my bf is) then you won’t be able to hold him up very often, but typically partners change a lot and it’s fun! He’ll pretty much always be able to hold you up, and it’s just so cool!
Alia: This is me and my two friends after we completed the Irvine Lake Mud Run. We called our team "Triple Threat"!!!
Sky: I was doing a few yoga moves in my sister’s back yard when my niece asked me to do a few with her :). Backbends on the trampoline? Don’t mind if I do!
Alison: Here’s one of my friends and I, Jayne and Kathleen (I’m on the far left) after a 14.38km fun run in Melbourne, Australia! We were 3 of 33,000 to compete! It was so much fun!
Jenny: A chilly Sunday morning VersaStick workout with my friend Leighton. Hurry up spring! We’d much rather be outside!
Totally rocking the Fitnessista Twisty Bangs…thanks Gina!
Kate: My puppy and I stay fit by running together! She’s an amazing athlete and motivates me every day ๐
do you have a brand/type of jumprope that you would recommend?
I love these show me your fit pictures! Maybe I will send one in. I hope all goes well at the puppy meeting today ๐
These pics are too cute! And, your new bowl is beautiful. Have fun doing taxes-haha! You’ll feel better once they’re done. Happy Friday!
good luck on taxes.
hope you have a great day! Hope bella loves the other puppies, so cute.
My fit friday will be biking today! not sure if there will be any pictures though.
Ah, I understand the dog-broodiness so well! Left to my own devices, I’d run wild like Cruella De Ville’s good twin, adopting ALL the puppies!
Gina, slightly off-topic, but do you ( or any of your awesome fitness-minded readers) know of a reputable travel company running fitness/activity vacations in the USA?
OMG that video is killer!!! Good for them, they are awesome ๐
Ah! that looks like a Rhodesian Ridgeback in the last picture! So beautiful!
Kate (pictured girl) where did you get her??
I love seeing these fit photos. It inspires me to do something active every day whether it be yoga, running, or just walking along.
And Gina, Tiffany the dachshund looks so cute! I hope her and Bella get along!
I bought her from a breeder in Sachse, TX. She’s also a DVM and has the most amazing dogs! We love our ridgie ๐
I had a smoothie in a bowl this morning for breakfast too, cant go wrong ๐
I love the fit friday!! Such great entries you get!
Happy Friday love!! Im enjoying some wine this weekend, hope you are too! xoxo <3
I love the fit pics and I totally want to try Acro Yoga! That would be so much fun.
Went to the local premiere last night and Water for Elephants was wonderful!
what a fun post!! acro-yoga and versastick sounds so fun and crazy! ๐
I love all of those pictures of smiling, happy, healthy girls – so strong and the acro yoga is very cool!
I hope the dog meeting thing goes well today
Glad you liked the video ๐ I thought it was so cute & funny. Those pictures are awesome- especially the Acro Yoga.
Oh what awesome pics! I used to do Acro yoga and only wish I had cool pics like that! And all the other pics…so fun. I love seeing the face/names of your readers and all the great submissions!
Good luck w/ your taxes. Glad you got an extension but still….the sorting process and organizing…not fun. I hear ya! Maybe you’ll get a refund ๐
Happy Easter Gina!
