Visting some family in Idaho (shout out to @quiksylver296 ) for much of the week. They have a lovely place near a river in the Coeur d'Alene area, so we will be fishing, hiking, and playing with our niece and nephews. Very much looking forward to it! Also visiting my sister and her twin babies on our way back home. SUPER…

@MoHousdon Yay for a good mood! I bet it was the donut AND the walk...both are fabulous. I'm in a pretty great mood, too, as I am on vacation all next week! AND I'm eating the most delicious salad for lunch right now. It's all good over here, too!

@Tubbs216 How did your son's job interview go? Fingers crossed it went well for him!!

Yep - I agree, too. Hugs to you!!

Mine too, since I'm just about 39. :)

I love chocolate cake donuts... they are my favorite! There's a local donut shop that makes the best ones... chocolate cake donut with chocolate frosting with chopped peanuts on top. OMG. Delicious!

YAY!!! Glad she had fun swimming!!

Ha! @Tubbs216 - you're now the fabulous "older sister" we all wanted but never had. I got the world's best youngest sister, so I can't complain. We are and always have been close. I love her to pieces!

Fair enough! Tentatively planning to start the SL program 8/31.

Oh my goodness!! How terrible for Zac. I hope the shooting victim improves and that the whole situation somehow is resolved in the best way possible. So terribly traumatic, though, for the witnesses and all involved. I will keep sending good thoughts their way.

What?? I'm hopping on the next plane out... :grin:

Me, too! Even if it's with people I know and love, I seek out the quiet corner after awhile. I really want the "Sorry, I'm Awkward. Sorry." shirt! :smiley:

Not a fail! It's ok to be tired and take a day off from being supermom/wife! I hope you feel better soon, though! Try not to be hard on yourself, especially if you're getting sick. Take care of you and get some rest! Hugs!

@kylerjaye Wow. Just... wow. Ignorant AND belligerent? SUPER.

LOL - Come train me so that I don't despise core workouts!

Edited to delete double post. :)

Conversation between me and my sister: Me: "I'm really liking jogging! It's fun with the zombie app. Though my lower back is a little sore." Sis: "Sounds like you might want to do some core exercises to help take the strain off your back..." Me: "I'd rather take ibuprofen every day than do crunches." :wink:

Aw!! That's adorable AND fabulous! Total NSV!! (Also - welcome back!! Glad you're here! I caught a CFL game on ESPN the other night and loved it.)

@pofoster21 How was your ride last night? Was that your first ride since being on restrictions?

Oh no! Thinking of him. :(

I agree 100% with @spamarie on the Les Mis front. I LOVED Samantha Barks as Eponine and Helena Bonham Carter was fabulous. Russell Crowe tried really hard, but was clearly out of his league vocally. Anyhow, I actually have a bunch of songs from Les Miserables on my workout playlist (not the movie Les Mis, the 10th…

Nope, haven't gotten a trip update, but she is logging in and whatnot. I hope she's having a wonderful time!

My first inclination was to shout "ZOMBIES!", but then I realized that probably people are tired of hearing me go on about how much I enjoy the Zombies. :wink:

Oh no!!! I'm so sorry to hear this. Sending good thoughts for Zac and his coworker.

This is brilliant @girldownsouth ! You have made my morning. I have the physique of an athlete. I feel confident in my ability to overcome physical challenges re: exercise or hiking or cycling. I know I'll never be 135lbs, but I don't want to be. I want to be muscular and fit and I see that emerging in myself. Also, while…

^This x 1000 for me! I :heart: Netflix. I'm so glad I'm not the only one! @spamarie @orangesmartie

I totally understand... I've been doing ok so far, but next week is vacation. I think I may lose all sorts of mojo then, and I'm down to the last 15lbs I'd like to lose. Eep! Anything we can do to help, @Tubbs216 ?

Wow!! That's fantastic!! Nice job!

Yay!!! I'm excited for you to get all set up at home!!

@Tubbs216 How's your sister doing? @peleroja I hope your trek goes so well! You have trained very well for it and I can't wait to see the pics! @ShibaEars How's Sadie? been thinking of you and your mom today. I hope she's feeling better.
