    There was a free Zumba open house in my area from 6:30 to 8:30, so I thought I would take advantage of it! I did the first hour, and then stayed for 40 minutes of the second hour. Wow, what a workout, challenging but a lot of fun!!

    It looks like people are off to a good start this week, some pretty lofty goals, wow!! Good luck to all.

    Hello everyone....

    Yesterday, my hubs and I cleaned out the laundry room and put in storage units....then, we cleaned out our bedroom closet...I did tons of laundry as well (hours & hours of house re-organizing)

    Today, stripping wallpaper (90), walked to son's ballgame and back (25 minutes)

    Tomorrow, cleaning garage and attic, anticipate another 2 hours doing that and setting up for garage sale

    I have not been logging my time or calories this week....but, know, that I am non-stop this week getting ready for major home improvement projects and a huge @ss garage sale.

    I am exhausted:yawn:
