    I have been counting my toe wiggles as flex this week, and doing planks, wall pushups and TRX as strength, some drizzly walks for cardio - a well rounded workout week. :smile:

    I've been really good at cutting carbs this week and upping protein; and that is probably why cravings are diminished. Fingers crossed! And Chris, I'll catch up with you in September! :wink:

    Happy Birthday Chris! :D

    We have our first tennis match of the spring season today. The team is really excited!

    Yesterday my BFF and I took her grandsons 8 & 2 to Barnes & Nobles to buy a couple of books. The 8 year old really loves books so we encourage it as much as possible. They are my godsons and I'm crazy about them. Their mom tagged along. She's a first grade teacher and we let her make the final decisions on their selections.

    I found a couple of DVDs for myself...Leslie Sansone Walk Your Belly Flat and AM & PM Stretch. Shelley I remembered you said on rest days a stretching DVD is a good thing. :)

    After B&N the kids wanted to go to Red Robin for lunch....they love the milkshakes. I ordered the South west salad and immediately put half of it in a togo container...it was so big.

    Have a great Sunday! I'll let you know how the team does later. It may be a long day...scattered showers in the forecast.

    Thank You, ladies!!! It was a good day!

    No exercising for me today...sick DH. Trying to keep it quiet around here. Can't bike because I have the TV cranked up. Bean leaves the room when I get on the bike and hides down the hall. No workout DVD...no walking because there is a ton of rain and cold wind out there today!! It sounds worse when you go out back because of the tin roof over the patio...I love it!! We've walked in drizzle when the wind has been warmer but this is cold!

    I hope you are all having a fun Sunday!

    My team won 3 of 5 matches. My doubles partner and I loss 2-6 & 4-6. It was a very long day, but I'm happy the team overall did well considering we moved up into a higher division.

    Headed to an Epsom salt bath and bed.

    Good night.

    Chris, I'm getting very fond of walking in drizzle, the weather actually makes me want to bundle up in my hiking boots and ankle-length storm coat. It's dry and safe inside the coat and feels so dramatic to be physically out in the storm.

    Kathy...nice wins!! Enjoy your bath.

    Paula... at our old house the wind wasn't as fierce and cold as it is here. I would walk with my umbrella or just my hoodie, depending on how hard it was raining. My family thought I was nuts, but I liked it! The only thing I ever have trouble with is black ice and uneven sidewalks. Yeah, I've gone down a couple of times. Our new neighborhood is newer so the sidewalks are in great shape...the black ice, however, spreads itself where ever it pleases!! Sometimes I think there is a Black Ice Faerie up there who shakes her wand and points to where she wants the patch planted...like around my car! Then she laughs like crazy and we think it's thunder...bwahahah!

    DH is getting better...hoping to walk and bike tomorrow then do our flex in the evening.

    Later, my friends!

    Chris
