Happy April Fool’s Day!
Did anyone get a prank pulled on them yet? I still can’t believe it is APRIL!
I am a tired girl this morning.
I was up until about 1:30am working on the Glo Bakery Website. I worked on it from 8pm-1:30am without so much as taking a break.
I love when I get into work like that! Sometimes I can be very productive at night. There aren’t many distractions around. Our TV in the office still isn’t working, so I am also going on day 3 of no TV. I am sure that has helped!
Here are a couple screen shots of the Glo Bakery website:
I changed the header and gave it a new funky looking wordart. I also did the same with all the sidebar pictures and I also updated some pictures on the Bar page. I am getting more skilled with Adobe Photoshop. Actually as I use it more I am finding that it isn’t as hard as I thought! The toughest part was learning what all the tools can do for me.

Todoist Questions
I have been getting lots of emails from people who have signed up for Todoist but can’t figure it out.
![todos todos](/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/todos-thumb.jpg)
I can really relate because that was how I felt for so long.
They really need to create a nice and easy tutorial when you sign up!
Here is a tip that will help you out tremendously:
When you first log into your account the first thing you need to do is create your PROJECTS on the left hand side. These are your categories. I wish they would have called them that because it would probably have made it easier for me.
My categories/projects are the following:
- Glo Bakery
- Oh She Glows
- Todos
- Eric’s To dos
- Groceries
- Birthdays
Once you make a project/category single click on one of the categories and it will bring this category up (or active) on the right hand side. Now you can see ‘Add Task’. This lets you add a Task (or to do) for this category. You can also add a date for the task. Click the question mark beside the date field for more info. That one was tricky for me to figure out, but once I got it it was fine.
All and all I am in love with Todoist! I can’t believe I lived so long without it!
I must admit, it also feels really good not to be wasting tons of paper with my paper notes scattered all over the place. I finally have a clear desk now. Well, except for my recipes which I am slowly typing out! :)
I hope this helps those of you who are scratching your head with it!
Day 6: (April 1st): Many of you told me what is your least favourite resistance exercise the other day. Many of you said push ups. Some said lunges, some said squats. Whatever it is, do three sets of it today. Practice makes perfect right? I will be doing squats with a 26 pound weight bar today!
Also, today’s challenge is to stretch after your workout. Whether you want to stretch with yoga or some basic stretches, it is up to you. Stretching helps with flexibility and posture, both of which are going to give you one mean and lean bikini body come summer! :) I am going to aim for about 15mins. of yoga today after my cardio workout.

You Got Me!!
The bakery website id looking really good!! Congrats!
My least fave of those 3 exercises is push ups, but my arms are still sore from the tricep dips the other day so I will be doing 3 set of squats with weights! I have Pilates tonight which will count as my stretching!
Thanks for the Lululemon heads up! :)
good one! :)
the bakery site looks great!
I’ll be going to BodyPump tonight after work, so I’m doing all the things you mentioned!
– squats
– lunges
– chest work
– biceps
– push ups
– triceps
– abs
– back/hamstring work
whew! it’s such a great workout :)
I just signed up for Todoist last night. :) I love organizing/categorizing, so I have a feeling I’ll be having a field day with this program. Sorry Gmail Tasks didn’t work out for you, but I guess we’re just complex girls!
I loooove to play with Photoshop.. I’m ready for summer so I can waste some time!!
I love your website layout- it looks great! I love lulu and can’t wai to check out their site…because I live in Vancouver I shop mainly the outlet!
Oh tear. I was so excited to order some fab workout gear. Got me :( Dang that booty shot was kind of scary! Ha ha. Your website is looking great btw. Nice job!
Great job on the website, it’s really coming together! Angela I sent you an email on March 26th about my prize package but I haven’t heard from you. Did you receive it? If not, please let me know and I’ll re-send it.
oh your site looks great!
todoist confuses me :( i cant figure it out and i dont know why? do you have any tips? pointers?
I need to thank you. XD After doing my strength training circuit, I did my 3 sets of push-ups. Now, if I didn’t go through with the challenge of yoga, I’d probably be moaning and groaning everytime I moved my shoulder because I worked HARD today!
Note to self: Yoga. Worth the effort. Even if it is kind of slow, boring, and repetitive at times. Way better then being too sore to write with a pencil! :P
So yes, thank you for including stretching in todays BBBC challenge!
