Its All About ME!!!

This space is for stuff about me; no kids, no husband, no nuthin but me! Well, you will see an occasional reference and rambling related to others, but all in all, one big narcicist spot for me!

Line Drying Challenge

Remember my old friend, Crunch Chicken? Well she is hosting a month long Line Drying your laundry challenge! Since I'm all about line drying, (see this old post) but actually (said with a sheepish grin) have succumbed to the convenience of my new drier lately, I decided to jump on it - starting now!

My new washer will make drying faster, which is good since it the season of cool weather, rain and clouds here in MI now. Well, today is beautiful = smile! But not for long.

OK, I'm now off to hang up some laundry and then go for a run in the sunshine! Gotta enjoy it while it lasts; I do love fall.

Free Gym Trial

So, I have a free one-week membership to Snap Fitness. It is a total no-frills gym, but it is close to me and it has a month-to-month option if I want to join something until Trish re-joins the gym and we can once again meet up. (Trish, I miss you!!)

I am going to the gym at different times to see how the "crowd" is. HA! There are hardly any people in the gym. I have not gone at 7ish, which was when Powerhouse got busy, so I have yet to see a real busy time, but so far I have been either the only one there, or one of 2 people there.

My free week is up Wednesday. I'm going to try Anytime Fitness next. They are even closer to me than Snap Fitness. They are also a bigger gym and offer 24 hr access. I like that part. However they do not have a month-to-month option. Trish would have to sign up for this gym (there is one in Brighton) for us to meet up yet again. Or I'd have to find a new workout partner. hmmmmm

Running Again

Yup, back at it. I ran yesterday; 2 miles in 28 mins., and BOY was it hard! I ended up running a bunch of 1/4ish miles because that was all the stamina I had. ick!

Well, the good news is that I am down 2 lbs from 2 days ago! whoooot!! Doing good; now to keep it up!

New Month, New Goals

So, I blew off August as far as exercise goes. I exercised 4 times total. blah. While it was nice to be lazy for the hot month of August, I am ready to get moving again! So ... diet and exercise here I come!!

Our 10th anniversary is coming up in 7 1/2 weeks, and I am going to lose 22 pounds by then! (I'd love to make it 25, but that is really pushing it; I just like that number better.) So, daily exercise sessions and back to the diet once again. Keep me motivated folks, cause it sure was nice to have the summer off! ; )

Photo of W&D Finally

Because Trish really wanted to see a photo of my new "toys" I have finally managed to drag my camera down there and take a photo.

Problem is, the silly unit is so tall that I cannot get back far enough to get the entire unit in the shot! hehe. But, it is working nicely, so that is good!!
