New Mac Mini

mark — Mon, 27 Jul 2009 14:40:27 +0000

So I just got a new mac mini. I am hopping to start learning to create an iphone app. Not sure where to start but I have been looking all over the internet. I want to also look at the ilife suite of programs and learn and use them. I really like the iphoto and the imovie. I want to learn those as well. I think using this computer will help to bring my creative mind out a little as I look into some of these new programs. I just need to get a tutorial or just some examples to begin my journey.

Cycling and updates

I am going to go cycling today. Wow I can’t believe it has been a really long time since I have gone cycling. I have been on it here and there but nothing too serious. I am kinda giddy about it. Hopefully I will be doing 15 miles. Just 3 laps. Shouldn’t take more than an hour to complete. I know my bum isn’t going to enjoy it.

I am stuck on my compter again. I was setting it up in our living room and now I have problems with everything. The Mac OSX isn’t coming up and neither is windows. I can’t find my vista disk to repair the motherboard and all other things that are happening.

Yesterday was a tough run. I ran about 6.5 miles and was having trouble towards the end. It was about 75 out and the first 1.5 miles were doing good. I was doing some tempo training. I started off with a 1 mile warm up then did .5 mileat a 8 min/mile pace then jog for a .5 mile then repeat. I then jogged for 1 mile and then repeated again twice and finished the last mile strong. I was suffering around mile 5-5.5 and tried my best to finish the last mile. I think I averaged about 8:45 min/mile overall which is good for 6.5 miles.

Eating well is tough. I can’t really complain. I am happy where I am at and am doing well. I just need to fit in more recipes that are healthy. I have been working on a very mixed diet somewhat. I need to add more seafood I think though. I don’t that much seafood per week. I have been taking shakeology for the past month and love it. The only thing is trying to keep using it cuz it is expensive.

Stay committed and focused

It seems tough these days to keep up with what I want to accomplish and to stay on track. This weeked was a blast with 2 weddings and trying to keep up with my diet and exercise. I was able to do one on early Saturday morning.

I am trying to balance life between running, working out, eating healthy and trying to start my cycling. I just need to focus and keep track and schedule when I will be doing what on what day and when.

I always feel that I am running out of time. There is never enough time these days. How do I get more out of my day and expect to get in what I like or want to do the most.

I have been working on my computer trying to setup a mac and pc on the same system. It is not easy. There are message boards out there and they have helped tremendously. I now just need to find out some smaller issues then I can try to develop a iphone app. I just need to prioritize!
