Good Morning All, I have looked back and tried to skim over the pages since I was last here. On the subject of aging, I too have struggled with it. As a single mother raising two kids I didn't really have time to think of myself or my future. My kids have been out of the house for seven years now and they have been hard…

Hello All, Rain, rain go away! We planned to have an outdoor birthday party today. It's cold and rainy, what is up with this weather. I got up and di my cycling and ab class. I really love my Saturday morning work out. I feel so energized afterwards. Just stopped in to say good morning to all. Have a great week-end…

Just popping in with some exciting news. I told you all that I am going to teach an ab class here at work and I was nervous no one would sign up or come. It went out in our online news letter last night and the response has been awesome. I've had emails and phone calls like crazy. I'm so excited!! If half the people show…

Good Morning to All, It's FRIDAY!!! I sure wish we had three day week-ends. Oh well, there is one coming up. Not much happening tonight but the rest of the week-end is pretty busy. I think tonight will be a good one to go home and revisit the WII and some dvd's I'v enot had the chance to do lately. Tomorrow is cycling, ab…

Good Morning to All, New thread and away we go. Our company has a "clean your department" day once a year and everyone gets to wear jeans. Today is the day and I forgot! I even reminded people last night and still forgot myself. I'm going to get a hard time over this. Oh well, I didn't really plan to clean my desk anyway…

Good Morning All, We were suppose to get storms last night but I didn't hear any rain. I walked on all three breaks yesterday then after work I went to cycling class and then tried the ropes class. After that I went home and mowed. I was one tired gal by the time I finished. It is suppose to rain the rest of the week so I…

Good Morning to All, Welcome to the Newbies, Today is Tuesday and hopefully we will be rain free. My yard has grown leaps and bounds in the past two rainy days and desperately needs cut. After work today I am going to a cycling class and then I'm trying a rope class. I've never done the rope class so I'll let you all know.…

Back again, it's lunch and I walked for a half hour but it's pretty hot out and my arms are sunburnt from yesterday. I had a protein shake for lunch today. I made it with lite greek yogurt and strawberries and it was really good. It's 12:45 so my day is more than half over, just three hours to go. I have been on line…

Good Morning to All, Mother's Day has come and gone. I had a great time with my DD's and families. We grilled out and I didn't do bad on the food. I had a met that I didn't finish, a spoon of baked beans and a deviled egg. I also had a small sliver of cherry pie as it is my favorite and was made for me. My twin DGD's…

Good Morning to All, Today is my DGD's second birthday, she is such a sweetie and is so excited. We are going out tonight to one of those play places and then to dinner. Her party is next week-end because of schedule conflicts. I am so so so glad it's Friday. My older DD called and invited me to a cookout Sunday for…

Hello All, Today is Thursday, tomorrow is my DGD's second birthday. We are actually having a party next week-end but I will go to dinner with them to celebrate tomorrow as well. Saturday is the self defense class and I'm looking forward to it. My other daughter sent me a text that said "What do you want for Mother's Day"?…

Hello All, So glad we are almost through the week. It's kinda sad that I live for week-ends but I do. I sure wish they didn't pass so quickly. I haven't heard anything from either daughter about Mother's day so we'll have to see. I believe DD#2 has to work, it is her last day as she turned in her notice due to the third…

Good Morning to All, I actually completed my food journal for yesterday. Hurray for me. I am so bad about it, I usually put in breafast and sometimes lunch but when I leave work, I don't usually touch the computer again for the evening. Not much going on here, I'm at work and I have to work at the Y desk tonight so have to…

Good Morning All, Back to work and fighting off the Monday morning blues. I am lucky I get 4 weeks vacation a year but I've already used 9 of the 20 and have to use a week when DD delivers so I'm really trying to not take any more vacation days until the second half of the year now. But I would have liked to call off…

Good Morning Lovely Ladies, It is Friday and that makes me very happy. Tonight I am going shopping with DD#2 and her children. My youngest DGD will soon be turning 2 and we are going to be shopping for gifts. Tomorrow I have cycling and ab class, a manditory Y meeting and then tomorrow night we are going out dancing. Love…

It's afternoon and I'm at work. We just had a little good bye and good luck for a fellow employee. Tomorrow is his last day. I really wish him well and don't begrudge that he can quit at age 59, but I sure wish I could too. We started the same year. I don't have a bad job or work for a bad company but I really get bummed…

Hello All, A new month, I can't believe how fast time is going. Sadly I can't remember my April goals but I have written my May ones and will keep them posted here on my computer. I will share them below. This week-end I have cycling a nd ab class Saturday morning, then a manditory meeting for the Y in the afternoon. We…

Hi Friends, I can't catch up on posts now as I'm behind and am at work. I will get on tonight and catch up. Just wanted to say Hi. We had an awesome week-end weatherwise but have experienced rain pretty much ever since. I did part of a yoga dvd yesterday and also came across a beginner pilates I'm going to try. Tonight is…

Got to weigh in here. You do not have to go to the gym but everyone needs to exercise. Find something you enjoy doing. Everyone should do some type of weight training as we lose muscle and bone density as we age. We also lose flexibility and balance. Some more than others but we all do. As a diabetic exercise could help…

Monday morning and here we are. Slept well even with the sunburnt neck, chest and arms, guess that happens when you walk around a park for 8 hours. Our forecast now calls for rain for the next several days or more. I’m hoping for warmer weather again this week-end as I’ve yet to get my bike out. I’ve been way to busy but…

Hello All, I am beat. We had company day at Kings Island, our local amusement park. We were there all day, I am sun burn even with sun screen, have loads of steps and didn't eat bad. Last night was our celebration at The Cheesecake Factory for my daughter and I ordered of the Skinny menu and skipped dessert. Yah! for me. I…

Good Morning to All, TGIF. I am booked this whole week-end but am looking forward to it all. My sister and I are going to see God 's Not Dead. My car is in the shop today getting tires, two of them are really bad and I've been pretty nervous about driving it. Hate the cost though. It is raining here but will hopefully…

Just a bump here. We had our strenght training class outside in the sun today, it was a great work out and we got a little vitamin D. The reason is because they are expanding our work-out area here and it's under construction but we all felt it could be benifical to have them outside sometimes. Patty, Cincinnati OH

Good morning to all, I'm so glad it's Thursday, Friday would be better but we're getting there. I am at work and had a pretty good night's sleep so feeling peppy. I really like the 6:15 to 7 o'clock time when no one else is in yet, it is peaceful and I can gather my thoughts for the day. Does anyone else watch Dancing with…

Hello All, It is evening here and I am just chilling out with a small glass of wine. I am watching regular TV, usually I DVR shows and I skip commercials but tonight I've just got it on for noise. Commercials drive me nuts. Some are just so stupid and some it seem like come on over and over. Oh well. This week-end is my…

Hello Everyone, Read back to the first page and have now caught up but can't comment on everything. This morning I made a greek lite vanilla strawberry protein shake. I've been struggling with breakfast as I feel most things are to many carbs, fats or sugars. For years I mixed a protein shake with my coffee but I've really…

Good Morning All, At work again, yesterday I really let this place get to me and I'm going to try and block it all out today. I literally have ear plugs in to block out the talikng. I guess one of the biggest problems is that mornings are my best working time, I think clearer and get so much done but everyone else seems to…

Yikes, I forgot to say that I lost 1 lb. Happy for that but focused on doing better. I have many years before I can retire and I haven't done the best job of preparing for it either so not looking like I can shave any time off of the 12 yrs, barring a lottery win or prince charming taking me away. The realization of this…

Good Morning to All, Sadly it's Monday morning and I'm at work. The week-ends go much to fast. Friday night I took my twin gd shopping and they picked out dresses to wear to their Mom's pinning ceremony, both are beautiful young ladies, they are 12, one is blond and the other a brunette, both have gorgeous blue eyes.…
