Just got back from my cardio - no weights today.

Remember awhile back I mentioned the buff gal that works out at my gym in the mornings? I hadn't seen her for a few weeks but she's back! I think her name is Kimberly - I'm lousy at names and I don't want to embarrass myself by asking again She, however, remembers MY name and is always super friendly to me. We actually have a few morning folks whom I would call "dedicated lifters" - it's very motivating to work out amongst them!

This morning is my riding lesson - then afterwards Jim is taking off to Marin to go to a guitar show with his musician buddy. The problem with Saturdays is that it's the day before Free Day for me, and I'm not on any schedule really. So I'm going to try and stay busy - house cleaning and then getting OUT of the house - maybe go visit my sister and go to the library, or take the bus (ugh) to the mall. Man! This is one of those times where I really WISH I had my own wheels...then I'd be spending the day at the stables being with the horses!

JC - Isn't that a great philosophy? Another way to say it would be "we're not in Russia - they aren't going to run out of Free Day goodies!" Thanks for the metric education. They tried to cram that into us in jr high school, but I'm an American through and through - so it's miles, cups, pounds, gallons for me!

Well, time to cut up about 5 pounds of carrots for my horse buds and get ready to drive up to Horse Country!

I, too, hit the gym early this morning. LBWO but the Smith machine is broken...no Smith squats.

I did do hack squats though. I'm going to try to get to yoga tomorrow morning after cardio.

The gym is so nice at 6:00 am on a Saturday morning. It's also nice to have my workout done for the day already!



came home and had a berry blast MRP with frozen strawberries and UDOs, showered and dressed. It's not even 9 am and I'm feeling grrrrrrrrreeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaatttttttttttttttt t.
