Day 4 of the comments for a cause project, and I wanted to thank those who’ve been taking their time to help me out daily.
I still haven’t found any gyms out near my new place, which I like the feel of and or willing to pay their prices. Since I’m being cheap, I’ve been giving myself my own kick in the butt boot camp (when I came back from the states 23 days ago). I run up and down the stairs 7 times, I try and walk 3 miles a day when I grab the mail, since the ground is muddy most of the work outs I have been doing are indoors. I just bumped up the number of sit ups I do from 20 to 25 [x 3 reps, for each muscle (lower abs, abs, side abs)] I’m a little sore but no pain, no gain.
I’m not trying to look like a body builder, but I do like the toned look and I miss having that body. But once you have a baby, your body doesn’t always go back to the way things were. :|
Would you pay for a personal trainer?
Would you rather work out at home OR head to the gym?

Canada jumped on the bandwagon last month with a site, where you sign up to have less telemarketers call you as you can’t block all of them. Only thing I wish could happen though, is for any telemarketers/companies that call you to be removed off a list of numbers once you give up your phone number and it goes back into the pool to be resubmitted to people. Lets say Jo Smith switches numbers and if he lives in the same area then those telemarketers/companies be transfer over to his new number and not call ME instead. 
I got this call in the middle of dinner, I grabbed the phone before looking at the called id, then again I was thinking it was someone else. Wrong-o, the call was a telemarketer looking for the old owners of the number I have now. She kept calling me Mrs.(surname) and would go on and on. I tried to cut in so many times, at one point of the 5 minute phone call, I said I’m very sorry but your not talking to Mrs.(surname), they DO NOT own this number anymore and may I ask what this is regarding cause I would like to be removed from your call list. She kept going on, oh Mrs.(surname). So pissed off me just hung up.
Normally, I just say oh sorry [sir/mama], but the person your looking doesn’t live here anymore and I don’t know their new phone number. Normally I get a reply back saying oh sorry, would you like to be removed and of course I say yes. I know, telemarketing is a job like everything else but sometimes I just have to wonder why would you want that job?
Have you ever had a telemarketer like that or worse?
