Has it EVER been this cold?

Yesterday morning I woke up, groggy eyed and FREEZING. I knew I needed to wake up and get ready for work, but I didn't want to get out of my warm bed so soon. I reached over to my nightstand and grabbed my iPod. I was shocked when I looked at the weather report and it was -4 degrees! I was cold ALL day. WELL... this morning I woke up, and out of curiosity, reached over to the nightstand for my iPod again. The temperature read -20 degrees! Absolutely crazy! Now keep in mind, the video below comes from a place where it is only 8 degrees colder.

This time of the year is hard. All I want to do is be outside and soak up some vitamin D! Oh, well. I can't believe it is February already. At this rate, spring will be here soon. Especially since Punxsutawney Phil didn't see his shadow today! Happy Groundhog Day, everyone!

So, in lieu of the bitter cold, I decided to stay in and do my taxes. I am probably one of the only people that enjoy doing them! But truthfully, I want my money! It is a great feeling having them complete well before April 15th!

Just to report back on my 30 day shred progress... I'm on day 6. I have taken a couple of days off due to soreness and just life getting busy! Someone at work said I looked skinny today : ) I think I am looking more toned already. Plus, I've noticed the push-ups and bicycle crunches are actually getting easier! Hooray, I will be ripped by day 30... haha, maybe not really... but better for sure!
