June 5 fitness results, plus weird refunds

June 6th, 2012 at 03:36 am

10-min. workout: Yes! AS told me about a cool website (also a mobile app) -- sworkit.com -- that generates workouts based on the amount of time you have. I asked for 10 minutes and got a pretty intense workout! I didn't know some of the exercise so I faked it or did something similar; I'll have to look up the exercises before I use this again. Good website though!
Results so far: 3/5 (3 out of 5 days)

Calorie counting: estimated 1628. (My target is 1280-1400.) Not too bad! A half cup of lemonade and a cup of red wine pushed me over 1400.
Results so far: 5/5 (my goal is to track, so even if I go over my target, it counts as a success)

No night snacks: success! I'm finishing a glass of wine I was too busy to drink earlier, but I won't have any late night snacks tonight.
Results so far: 5/5

Now to my two random refunds:

First, that dentist that charged me so much sent me a $228 check. No explanation, so I'm not sure which visit it's a refund for! I'm pleased, but maybe not enough to use them again. I think I'll try another place.

I'm going to put that money back into the medical fund; we'll probably need it for AS's and SL's hospital bills from the birth.

And second, this morning when AS's mom checked out of the hotel we'd paid for, they gave her an invoice that showed they'll be refunding $260! (Now I just have to remember which card I used!) Weird ... part of it seems to be a refund for the first night, since her flight was canceled and she didn't come in Friday night. Not sure why it was so much. Or why they refunded that, since it was a special nonrefundable online rate. But who's complaining?? It was nearly half of what we'd paid for the room. If I really do get that refund, I'll put it aside because NT's sister and stepmom, and maybe his brother-in-law and father, are thinking about coming to visit later this year, and we'll handle the hotel costs if they do. This $260 is a nice chunk of change toward that!

    This check in is giving me the needed push to stop eating garbage at work (I have way too much chocolate and sweets there) and get me back to the Wii Zumba soon. Also calories are going to get sky high soon due to out of town visitors (who have birthdays while they are here) and our vacation to Canada the last couple weeks of the month. Am scrimping now to blow it later I guess!

    Thanks! Weirdly, the refund would take NT's Chase Sapphire card total spending just under $3000. But we've already redeemed the bonus for a check. Could they try to do something about this? I guess if it's just a statement credit refund, we'd have to spend it up anyway.

    I like your fitness goal of 10 minutes vigorous exercise a day. Usually I can't get a really good workout in until the weekend, because I don't find the time to commit to a full workout during the week. But 10 minutes, I can find 10 minutes. Just enough to get some endorphins pumping!
