Jenny - that sounds nicer then my gym! Everything is on your own. There's not even video classes like that. Shirley - Enjoy the new Star Wars movie! I wish it wasn't only in theater. I love Star Wars but I dont go to movie theaters. We got dumped on! Over a foot of snow fell last night. Church was cancelled this morning as…

Happy New Year! I'm trying to start the new year of right. I accurately weighed and logged my lunch. I'll do the same with supper. I just still need to get my run in! I was to lazy to get up this morning. I would have gone after church this morning but there was a chance of my parents coming by so I couldn't in case they…

Hi ladies. I hope you all had a good Christmas. I was so busy at the beginning of the month I got out of the habit of coming on here and I can't seem to get back into the habit of getting on here, even though things finally slowed down. I think I've finally shaken the cough from the bronchitis. It lasted for three weeks.…

Well after an insane week. I crashed and I crashed hard. I started coughing last Thursday (that was NOT fun trying to get through the Christmas program with that!), and it's only been getting worse. I ended up going to the walk in Wednesday night and he said it was bronchitis. Ugh. He didn't get me antibiotics though. He…

Tonight is my first evening home in a week and a half. Last week was insane, but the Christmas program is over! It went well. I'm glad to have my evenings back again! I wore myself out and caught a cold. There was a lot of coughing through the performance. I haven't even been on here for over a week. That's how nuts it's…

I lost my log in streak!!!!! :'( I THOUGHT I had logged on Thursday but I guess I hadn't. Today was my oldest nephew's 10th birthday party. It was loud!! 16 boys. (that included his two younger brothers) My parents were down. Dad shaved his beard. The two younger nephews had never seen him without it. The youngest (4) was…

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!!! So far my candles are in my window and my tree is up. I want to finish it today. I'm planning on pre-cooking all my meals for the next 2 weeks today and freeze them. The next two weeks are going to be non-stop craziness. What else is new!!! Next week after work it looks like…

Sheepishly waves hi I have so gotten out of the habit of coming on here. I just am so lazy when I get home at night. On my lunch at work right now. This morning I got up and worked out!!! Shocker! I also got on the scales. When I came on here I had to do a double take. I lost 2lbs! Not sure how. I've been chewing down on…

For two days in a row I've accurately logged my food and tonight I worked out!!! I was all excited tonight to finally live in an area where I could get trick or treaters. I had exactly 0. (Not counting my nephews) I kept a few of them for myself and I'm taking the rest of the bars into work for clients. They can eat them.…

Ugh. Life has gotten insane. Right from work to something else with hardly any time at home. When I am Im up late getting things done. I really need to get my priorities straight.

It's past midnight, I am beyond tired and want to go to bed but I have one more thing to do before I can. (Not just coming on here). Last week Monday was my only evening home. This week, I will be home on Saturday evening and that's it. It's going to be yet another long week. It just took my 2 hours to do my banking.…

I made my first turkey dinner! I think it was a success. I also think it was enough to be breakfast, lunch and supper!! I was wanting to get a long run in this morning, but with the wind and heavy rain, I chickened out. The rain has let up somewhat but it's still very windy. I do need to get a workout in, I feel desperate…

Hi Ladies *waves* This week has gotten insane! I was asked to be in the play portion of the Christmas Cantata at my church. I"m portraying a college student who plays a sheep on a radio broadcast. We had a first rehearsal on Tuesday night. There was a lot of laughter! Especially as we all have to try to sound like a sheep,…

I stepped on the scales. WAY to close to a number I never wanted to see again. You would think that would vitiate me. Well it did. For about two days. Sigh. So yesterday I was eating a gummy worm (something I should not have been) and I felt something on my tooth (the one that is mostly root canal) I thought it was just…

I AM A HALF MARATHONER!!!!! I did it!!! I did it in a time of 2:40:18. That's slower then what I said my goal time was but faster then what I thought in the back of my head I could do. That is also after I did 5k last night in a time of 31:26, which is faster then I've done this year in my other 5k races. It made me so…

I logged my food yesterday and stayed under my goal! Can't say the same for today. Not logging as I know I will be over. The chocolate ice cream in front of me does that (That or the yummy dinner I had) I find if I don't do something to work out, I don't eat right. There was no run today as I overslept. Then I got home so…

Shirley - It's not cooler tonight!! Sunday night's run was so cool and refreshing. It's nearly 8pm and the feel like temperature is 31. Ugh. You can feel the humidity. I"m hoping it will cool down some once it's dark out. Jenny - I have been!!! Today at work was so quiet and slow it was wonderful! I got through two of my…

Hi ladies. I've been feeling like I've been running in circles and getting no where. Last week was mostly work and sleep. I had 16 property transactions I closed on last week. I've never closed that many in a week before!! I started the day with about 3 days of over time hours. I now have just over 4 days over of over time…

wow. According to this I have 34 new posts to read! Has it really been that long since I was on here?? I know I was consumed with the Olympics the past two weeks (and I think catching up on sleep the past few days!) My half marathon is now only 22 days away! Yikes! I did an 18k run last weekend. It went really good. I'm…

Didn't realize it's been so long since I've been on. I've been to busy watching the Olympics. Like I am right now! I haven't got much running in after my 16k run. I did something to my heel and it hurt just to walk on it. It's feeling better now, so hope I can motivate myself to go tomorrow. Longer post later when I'm on…

Logged my food today!!! Did a 35 minute run. There was some walking as well with getting to and from my bus stop, but I didn't count that - even though it adds up to about 30 minutes spread throughout the day. I went for a run when I got home from work! Even though it was after 7 before I finally got home. Accidents…

I"m setting a lofty goal. Run EVERY DAY this month. Even if it's just a 2k or 3k run on the days of my cross-training (Sunday and Thursday). Started it off with my 5k training run tonight. I waited until later to go today so there was cloud cover and it might not be so hot. The breeze felt good when I was running. Though…

Jenny - Happy Anniversary!! I think minutes would be best for unaccountably. Mine would very much vary depending on the length (and pace) of my run. I ran 14K!!!! My longest run to date! My legs are very much telling me that as well. With having tomorrow off for the holiday (the one they created so we could have a long…

Shirley - He is getting so big! Marla - That's what I loved about camp! Portion sized foods and you didn't have to cook it! Jenny - I like the idea of an accountability check it! Oops. Woke up today at 6:42. I need to leave between 6:50-6:55 to get my bus. Needles to say I didn't make it. On a brighter note, all 19 books I…

I'm on the verge of dropping down from my first half. How can I do it when I haven't run in 2.5 weeks? I hate saying that. I'm simply not getting up early enough any more to go in the morning and I just don't at night when I get home. I need to. I want to. I don't. I also can't stop eating junk. Once again the scales have…

Hi Ladies!! I meant to post when I got back from the away portion of my vacation but I got to busy! I had such a wonderful (and tiring!) vacation. The class trip I took my students on was great. They all enjoyed it. There was 15 little piglets (only about a month old), two baby calves and several little lambs. They were…

I'm all moved in and mostly unpacked. I just need to tackle the 23 boxes of books. I need to get it done tonight as garbage/recycle day is tomorrow. The faster I can get all these broken down boxes out of here the better!!! The place is mostly set up and arranged. It will take a little longer as I need a desk for my…

VACATION!!!! 10 whole days off from work!! Yesterday was day 1 so 9 more to go. It's moving day!!! I'm all packed and ready to go. Computer and modem is the last to be packed. I just needed to check some things first. I will have limited data via my phone for the next couple of days until it's hooked up at my new place.…

Jenny - I ALWAYS pack more then I need when going somewhere as you can never tell with the weather! Shirley - Summer finally came this weekend!!! It hit 27 today. I love the sun! My life has been insane. I need to get myself better organized with packing to move. My living room is over taken by boxes. (Both packed and…
