brutalbears Posted December 3, 2016 Report Share Posted December 3, 2016 Brutal Bears Keeps It Simple Preludes and Introductions: So, it has been an interesting year for me, and I am really excited to get to the first of January to find some normalcy. I fell off the wagon a bit earlier this year due to working 80+ hours a week and doing school full time, but I am turning it around. I left that job, which has been very scary, and I am getting into a new one. I should have more manageable hours soon. My girlfriend has started working out more which is really helping (I really want to get her on here) she started doing pole fitness and really likes it. I need to keep my workouts simple and keep focusing on finishing this semester of school and getting this new job started. Goals: -Stay on the Move For this I am just going to get at lest full completion on my apple watch activity each day. Doing this requires at least 30 minutes of exercise, stand once an hour for a total of 12 hours, and burn 500 calories. I try to walk the dogs every morning, and Ashley and I have been hiking with the dogs every Saturday and Sunday. (between us we have 4 large dogs-including the second puppy I just got, so this is necessary) -Lift Heavy Things Lifting routing every Monday, Wednesday, Friday. I am living alone for the first time...ever. My place has two extra rooms, so I am working on making one of them a lifting and yoga room. So I will keep working on that too. -Stay Limber Do yoga twice a week (Tuesday and Thursday) 3 Quote Challenges: R: Winter is Here 20|19|18|17|16|15|14|13|R|12|11|10|9|8|7|6|5|4|3|2|1 “I swear by my life and my love of it that I will never live for the sake of another man, nor ask another man to live for mine.” -John Galt Link to comment

brutalbears Posted December 4, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2016 Lol I'm glad about the puppy love. I drove two hours and then waited an hour for person to come with the puppy. They never showed. So I drove 2 hours back empty handed.

How come a fifth puppy? Mrs laghail and I are talking about puppy #2 in the same sense we'd talk about estate planning - equally inevitable, terrifying and adorable. Estate planning is adorable, right? 1 Quote Level 34 [Yorkie Packmaster] Link to comment

This is only puppy #2 for me. My girlfriend has two as well, but we don't live together. It all worked out because we got this little guy instead.
