Sometimes I think I’d be just as happy having a staycation and hibernating with the dog. But I know I’ll be grateful to be in warm Costa Rica soon enough (and will be posting this from Costa Rica, I hope!). If all goes according to plan, the next post will be of sloths. And the next…and the next…
Here is what has been going on in the meantime.
Spinning. Spinning is hard. It would be way, way easier to go run 6 miles rather than be in spin class for 60 minutes. That said, I’m intrigued. I’ll definitely go more often. In part because I’m really thinking of…
Signing up for a triathlon. Yea, I don’t bike. This is the biggest problem, and one I’ve yet to tackle. Need to acquire a bike and actually ride it outside. Everyone is scared of swimming–I swam competitively for over 10 years. Swimming is no issue (and I checked out the pool again to make sure I hadn’t forgotten how). But biking is way hard. Uphill? You mean I have to bike uphill instead of just walk the bike? As I said…I have some mental obstacles to tackle, first.
Thinking about next trips. We have a lot of miles to burn in the near future, but I’m sort of stuck right now. We have a Kenya safari planned for June, and I don’t know whether to squeeze in something before or after. I don’t ever take my current leave situation for granted, either, so that’s something I need to figure into the mix. And I’m having a hard time narrowing down the choices, and I’m not really feeling the hectic 4 days in Europe right now trying to see lots of things. More on a palm tree sort of kick…
Speaking of trips, I am researching the Galapagos, again. DH and I are committed to a 2016 foray to see the wonderful wildlife, but need to decide which ship and which time of year. Choices, choices. We are interested in a ship-based 8-10 day trip, so if you have any suggestions, please leave a comment!
Laughing my ass off at Smartpak’s “If Horses Were People” videos. I really don’t know if these are funny to people who don’t ride or know horses. Um, they totally may not be? But if you have horses, these are absolutely freaking hysterical. If only I could act like a horse and less like a person in every day life and snort and shy away at everything I didn’t like…how much fun would that be?
See you in a few days with tales of Costa Ricaaa!
