Snowbound

For the second day in a row, my road looks like this...
Why yes, that is snow on top of ice! And, in case you couldn't tell, that is snow completely under my car. I had to go out yesterday, and that was as far as I could get my car back into the driveway. It could be awesome if I lived in an area with lots of good sledding hills. I could get a workout just marching up the hill repeatedly. But no, I live in an area where it takes all of 2 steps to climb the hill. No fun to sled, not much workout to repeat. Plus, there's a house at the bottom of said hill. That's an accident waiting to happen.

So, for the second day in a row, I am not going to be able to get a proper workout. I am beyond annoyed. But I guess that's a good sign. I could be using yesterday and today as an excuse not to workout at all, but yesterday I did some work on the WiiFit. My only problem with that is it's boring. Plus, I don't feel like I've really worked anything when I'm done. Yes, I may be a bit sore, but it doesn't even last 30 minutes. I know it's better than nothing, but it feels lame in comparison. Oh well.

Alright! Enough whining. I need to find something to do. Anyone have any suggestions? I don't really have room to do any workout videos, and I don't have any exercise equipment here at the house. And as you can see, I am not about to leave the house today. I'm tempted to dig out the snow boots and walk up and down the road... except that the last time I went outside I saw a car going way too fast on the ice and they slid off the road. It'd be my luck to get hit... then I'd really be screwed on working out! Ok, ok, ok... The Wiifit it is. I'm so over this stupid winter wonderland!

  1. Ok, so about 3 hours after I posted this, my road cleared and I was able to make it to sweet freedom... and the gym. It's ridiculous how excited it made me. I hope this energy keeps up. :-)
