My Reason

This is why I think not just twice, but MANY times about the words I use when expressing any kind of sympathy or condolences.  Tricky thing that is.

You are beautiful

Isn't it funny how one (me) feels they need to lose weight to wear workout clothes??

We struggle with this type of issue at work more often than expected...someone's working out in questionable attire (jeans, non athletic type shoes, etc.) but do we approach them?  What if they really don't have workout attire?  We definitely don't want to discourage fitness & wellness.

A welcome retreat

Sunday afternoon I headed over to my coworker's house to do a little scrapbooking.  I had so much fun!  For one, it was the first time I'd ever sat down to scrapbook (I've had the stuff for years, just didn't know how to start) and second, it was absolutely wonderful to hang out with a peer and craft.  It was incredibly relaxing and just really good to socialize in a way that didn't involve my husband, a bar, or alcohol.  Sometimes it's just plain good to have some 'me' time. 

I'm not sure I've said anything about this here but my advisor gave me some deadlines...June 30th for a completed Results section and July 31st for a completed Discussion section.  *Side-note:  I've been thinking about moving from blogspot for a while now.  This might convince me--blogspot is saying I misspelled 'advisor'*  So I didn't meet the June 30th deadline but I'm so much further along than I was originally that I'll be okay with that.  As Dory would say, "Just keep swimming swimming swimming." 

After a recommendation from a friend, I purchased Turbo Fire.  Heard of Insanity or P90X?  It's basically another one of those programs.  It's killing me because I thought it would be here Saturday and it wasn't.  Thought it would be here today and it wasn't.  If it's not here tomorrow I'm going to rip my hair out.  I was thinking about documenting my journey with Turbo Fire with pictures and my thoughts in a blog--seems like I'd stick with it and would be able to see my progress better.  I'm tempted to create a new password protected one with just my bout with Turbo Fire, but I'm beginning to think I should just document it in this blog & password protect it here--I've been thinking about doing that for a while anyway.

At any rate, those are my three thoughts for today.  Have a good one!

Yes please!

Strawberry infused vodka?!  Sign me up!  My favorite drink is a Cape Cod (cran & vodka)...maybe now I could just drink straight vodka.  Only kidding!
