Hey girls!
Its been way too long! I can't remember the last time I was on here. I can't remember if I told you all about my car accident back on September Long Weekend. Any it put me completely out of commission for 3 months and now I am almost better but still having pain with certain activities and if I get over tired or over do it. Its been a long few months. Things are finally getting back to normal so once again I can focus on my health. Still no better than I was before. One thing I am glad of is that for the three montha when I couldn't do anything I didn't gain any weight even though we were eating like crap-basically whatever wasn't work to make & a lot of take out. Anyway now refocused. I'm not following any real plan this time. I am just making healthy choices and having little goals of eating at least 5 servings of fruit and vegetables and getting at least 30 minutes of some kind of activity every day. I figure if I can manage those little things that is a good start for me & then I'll take it up from there.
Have any of you ever heard of Geocaching (pronounced geo-cash-ing)? Its this sort of high-tech treasure hunt that's going on all over the world. You use a GPS to find little chache's that people have hidden all over the place. You get the co-ordinates off of a website (
www.geocaching.com) and then you go out and find the hidden cache. When you find it you are only allowed to take something out of the treasure if you trade something in. Its realy fun! The treasure isn't the important part but rather going to new places and seeking your find without getting noticed by other people. Anyway DH bought me a GPS for my birthday this month so we've been really getting into it. Its good because most of the ones around here are ones where you have to walk a bit to find the cache. On Saturday we were out caching and we walked 5Km. We were having so much fun that we didn't even realize that we had walked that far. We found 3 caches that day. We're going out again today. If you're interested check out the website. It has lots more info. Where I live the population isn't so huge but there are 76 caches within 160kms (about 100 miles for you Americans).
So good to see lots of you 'old' friends are still around. Seems like there are lots of new faces as well. Looking forward to getting to know you.
Belle I can't believe Eve is this old already. Glad to hear you're doing well!
Ali, you're 5 months along already! Crazy! Are you glad all the election crap is over with? Of course us westerners are pleased with the outcome this time around. Now hopefully they can do a good job. I just hope the minority holds for awhile. Who wants to go through all that again?
Kier, Hey chicka! I bet you'd kick butt in martial arts. My brother and girlfriend do judo. It looks fun but rough. So did you buy a new house? Sorry I'm so out of the loop.
Lori, Congrats on Baby #2. What did you have and what is the name? Must've been pretty close to Christmas.
A big hello to every one else out there!
