So who am I? I’m Laurel House - your QuickieChick, and I’m a real 34-year old chick. Yes, we all know what a “quickie” is, but this is more than that; it’s a lifestyle. Just as “quickies” are fun, exciting, sometimes unconventional, efficient, sexy, in the moment, and always (or almost always) instantly gratifying… so are LifeQuickies. These aren’t long overdrawn processes that require prep-work, expensive equipment, patience and perseverance. They are right now, getting the most out of every moment. Oh, and it’s all done on a budget (because you don’t need to be wined, dined and stay in a 5 star hotel to have a quickie… do you?). Really, there’s a Quickie solution for anything life throws your way. These are my personal DailyQuickies... because "I' don't have time" is no longer an excuse. There's always time for a Quickie...
DailyQuickie: Commercial Break QuickieWorkout
Where: Living Room
When: Watching Food Network, afternoon, Thurs, Nov 17th
What: About a year ago I was staying with my mom in a hotel. I was in the bathroom brushing my teeth, she was in the bedroom watching TV. As I often do as I’m brushing my teeth, I was marching in place. I marched out of the bathroom, toothbrush still in my mouth, and there was my mom, marching in place too. We both started cracking up. Apparently that’s where I learned to do such a nutty thing. Anyway, while watching TV I have a circuit that I try to do at least once a week. It’s a great way to burn a few extra calories and make those commercials pass by just a little bit faster (and avoid getting up and strolling into the kitchen).
