Monday.

Hello all-y'all. At right you can see my new outfit. I got the shirt and jacket and accessories at Kohls. I hope I look spiffy v. looking like the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown.
It was a nice weekend for the most part. The bridal shower went well and was way more fun that I anticipated. The gave out clothespins and we weren't to cross any body parts or put elbows on the table. Screw'dat! I threw my pin down w/in seconds. I just don't roll that way.
I saw my aunt Barb for the first time in almost 5 years. I was really teary-eyed seeing her. We used to be really close and suddenly she stopped communicating. It sucked. I'm hoping I can entice her to get together at least once a month from here on out, infinity. She is truly one of my favorite people in the whole world. I can't believe we went that long not seeing each other. NEVER AGAIN!
I finally made the gym on Sunday. I did a major strength workout, rode the bike, and did the treadmill. I sure feel better. We are going again tonight as tomorrow is weigh-in. I got up and walked doggies this morning. It was about 35* and windy - brrrrrr! I'm starting to feel the cold lingering from that.
Speaking of the gym, I am debating whether or not to put a hold on my membership for a couple of months. I think I'll pay for two more months and then put a hold on for the worst part of winter. I just can't see paying for it when chances are I won't be using it. If we get as much snow this winter as we did last winter - I won't be going. I have enough DVDs to last me all winter, so I can continue to workout at home. Speaking of - I need to get that new exercise ball ordered. I miss having one at home. I actually WANTED to do ball crunches at home this past week.
Nothing much else new or different. Other than the outfit.
Have a great day!

Hi Linda, That is a cute outfit! Love the necklace, too. Hmmm, its good to hear someone so devoted to the gym say that they won't be going because of the weather. Sometimes I feel like a wimp when I change my exercise plans d/t the weather.

Can you tell me about the exercise ball? Do I need to take classes to learn to use it right, or is there a video or something that I could maybe watch? How bout your back? Is it good for a bad back?

Have a good day, Linda, and stay warm-hehe!

Love the outfit Linda! You look great. I don't blame you in the least about the gym thing. I can't bring myself to pay for a gym at all when I have dvd's at home!

By the way, I have an Aunt Barb also whom I love so much! I don't get to see her or talk to her much anymore. Life is just to busy sometimes! Sheesh!!!!
