Who Needs a Gym? Not Me!

Thirty Five Steps and Three Landings  
I helped my friend move into a new apartment this past week.
 Tuesday, I went up and down 25 times caring clothes and boxes
Wednesday, I went up and down 20 times caring boxes, pictures and lamps.

Today she needed my help to rearrange and hang pictures.
 She is finally in!

 Friday Night High School Football.
After the game, our local Police Department sponsored
an Ice Cream Social, in the school cafeteria.
They do this, so the students have a place to party, responsibly.
 

This is our school kitchen where I scooped ice cream.
Lots of ice cream.

 This is the ice cream that I scooped.
230 dishes, with two scoops.
There was plenty for everyone.
Candy, cookies, sauces and topped off with whipped cream.

This week I had a great work out.
I mastered the stairs and dug rock, hard ice cream.

Gym? Not  me!

  2. Not really a fan of stairs - you were a marvel to mount them 25 times - and then the upper body workout scooping! Activity invigorates, ya know?
    Joy!

  4. Buns of steel with all those steps! But then the ice cream took some of that away! That's okay....ice cream is too important to say no to. Have a great week.

  8. I would say you climbed a mountain on the original stairmaster :) Yeah, up down, up down, I'd say that burned about a bazillion calories not to mention you are going to have the best biscuits!

    The ice cream desserts looked pretty yum yum!

    You are a marathon woman!
    I need to lose 10 lbs. Now if I can just find a friend who moving where there are 3 flights of stairs, I'll have it made.
    That ice cream social looks like it was yummy. It's a great idea for the students.
    I hope you relaxed a little this weekend!
