Happy Birthday to you JC! Hope your new year is full of love, health and happiness!

Well shoot you guys. I MISSED IT!!

Happy happy belated birthday JC - Hey, we're a month apart -- mine is on the 10th of November (don't tell anyone though...my BOSS doesn't even know...Jim and I don't really celebrate our birthdays - yup I know we are just soooo boring... :lol: ).

Audrey - Yup - it's the new version of Dreamweaver - MX I think? Jeez, I just loaded the upgrade on to my PC at work, you think I'd remember, duh...my next classes are going to be Cold Fusion and SQL. I'm trying to segue out of the admin stuff and into something a bit more interesting (and make more $$$ of course... ;) ). The company I work for has a VERY generous education program - they encourage it and being able to go during working hours (I schedule classes when I know I'm going to be not-busy) is pretty cool!

Of course one of my buddies who works at Microsoft doesn't understand why we don't use Front Page instead (I've never used it, but coworkers who have don't exactly sing its praises...).

Well, looking forward to another super weekend...just got back from an awesome leg workout. I love the fall!

Time to hop in the ol' shower... :)

Hi Ilene, that's my cutie pie niece Ruby (my older sisters child). The photo's from last year but she still just as cute as a three year old. :D (Can't tell I'm a proud Aunty, can you?! :lol: )

Hi Everyone - Happy Weekend!

Not much new. Ran into the chatty chick at the gym Thursday night again, even wearing my fake headphones, she wanted to ask questions about lifting and talk. Bummer. Now I will have to change my gym schedule just to get my work done properly. Going back this AM to redo my LBWO. I got the latest ENERGY yesterday and thinking about changing my routine again, anyway.
I'm going to try "Cardio Triathillon" here at home: Bike - Rowing Machine - Treadmill. Since the treadmill is on the main floor, I'll run up the stairs from the basement and hop on. Sounds like a challenge! I'm hoping DH will go into the office today to catch up on paperwork so I can practice.

Been staying on track this week, and feel pretty darn good. Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Did someone call a meeting and forget to tell me? I've seen slow weekends around here, but I assume you're all having a good time somewhere. And here I am, catching up on chores, cooking food for the week and rewritting cardio and lifting program.

I took today as a free day for eats and a rest day from exercise. But I will probably hit the treadmill later because I don't feel "complete" any more without some kind of exercise.

Hurry back, you guys!

Hehe - i didn't get invited either, dip! my weekend has been much like yours - chores and planning for the coming week.

I run my first 5K next Sunday, so I've spent a good bit of time on the trails the last few weeks. I'm so nervous that I won't be able to complete it - if I have to walk some of it, then so be it, but the goal is to run the entire race. If I can do it in under 30 minutes, I'll consider it a success!

Off to buy some new workout gear (have been promising myself new w.o. clothes for months - would you believe I'm still wearing shorts that I wore when I was 60 pounds heavier than i am now?! INSANE!!!)

I'm with Dip and Colleen - just logged on for a bit to get caught up, and I see I didn't miss much.
So far I'm struggling with my plan while down here in Atlanta - too many local specialities to try, and no time or facilites for working out! Oh, well - I'll keep doing the best I can and hope to at least maintain while I'm here....
Happy very-belated birthday JC.

Hi Cindy!! Hang in, girl, you'll be home soon!

Colleen - you put a thought in my head, and it's just a thought - to challenge myself to run a 5K next Fall. If I start training now, I may be ready in a year. I hate to run, so that's a challenge in itself. But I have always wondered about what the "rush" is that runners get. I have no doubt you will finish, and I bet you will finish *real good.*
