I've been up since 12:40 I think. And I think I'd feel worse if I went back to bed. Right now I'm in a decent mood I'm just kinda getting drowsy. I went to bed before 5:30. Maybe I'll try a coffee Coke.

I just worked out for 17 minutes. Man that was a tough one. I tried doing planks for the first time. I googled them and thought it looked easy enough. It was not. I did about one full one for maybe 40 seconds. Then 2 half ones for about 10 seconds. Holding myself up like that is tough. Then I did 50 regular ab crunches with the ab pad my mom got me for christmas. Then 40 reverse ab crunches. Which is 10 more then yesterday those are hard too. Then I did 30 bicep curls on each arm with my kettlebell and then 30 squats with my kettlebell and I drank some water after but I'm still out of breath. I can drink my protein shake in a few minutes.

I'll have to work on those planks some more.

At least I'm not tired anymore.

I got the new pair of jeans from my brother in law last week but they still don't button. Normally this size falls off me. My sister was like "how do they not fit at the waist?" Which I think she meant as a compliment. So I ordered some button extenders from Amazon and I'm hoping they work. My brother in law says they will stretch. They are "raw" japanese denim and are honestly pretty stiff but he claims they will be the best jeans I'll ever own. So maybe I just need to break them in. He said don't wash them for 6 months. Then theres all these special instructions on how to wash and care for them since they are supposed to fade into light colored rainbow lines when washed properly. It seems a bit like a headache. But they were about $170 on sale so I'm really appreciative of him and my sister since it was a really thoughtful and extravagant gift. I just hope the buttons work. They are coming today.
