So this weekend I attended a fitness boot camp with some of the gals from my mom group. That was three days ago now, and I am still sore to the point of not being able to walk down the stairs :P But I must say, if I had't been working out one to three times a week for the past three months, I would not have survived. Very proud of myself to have made it through!
On Sunday we headed to a nearby provincial lake and attempted our first picnic of the season. Although the weather was warm, and the breeze was balmy... The lack of leaves on the trees made it hard for Zee to be outside. So we picked up some sunscreen on our way back. Either way though, the first trip out is always the trial run. Which means, we forgot a lot of everything. But it was fun either way, the trip made by Martin and I with Zacharie as well as his parents and the dog. Zee went on the swings, we laid in the shade (or what shade there was) and had hamburgers and juice. Despite not being able to do much of anything because of a sleepy baby, it was wonderful just to sit and listen to the wind and birds while looking at the sandy beach and lake water.
And then to end off the pleasantries of the weekend, I got to go out for my first driving lesson with my mom-in-law, Lyn. Although I was initially very stressed and scared of taking the wheel, when it came time to the actual deed it was very simple... Or it is while I am still going 20-30 km/h. I may change my mind about liking it when I have to exit onto the Whitemud at 80 km/h where no one lets you merge. EEK! I got to try out signaling while driving, turning corners, driving in the parking lot... And finished the lesson off with driving down the road to the stop sign, then continuing down to the Canadian Tire. Of course, it sounds so simple to those of you who drive, but please. Remember back to when you first drove, and you will feel what I feel. Happiness at accomplishment and a sense of awesomeness! Anyways, I thank Lyn for teaching me... I hope to get good at everything very quickly so I can start driving more and more and soon be able to drive with her to her work, where we will be starting up our family garden of organic vegetables!
