Checking In

Just thought I'd catch up with everyone. Not much going on down here. Heather and family have been at the beach all week. They'll be back some time tomorrow. Jeff and Melissa are going to a music festival. Tom is in a 9-ball pool tournament this weekend. Since they won the league they have a bye for tonight. Keep fingers crossed because this will get him his free trip to Vegas. I'll be cleaning house and catching up on work. I need to start learning C# since I put that as a personal goal for this year and haven't gotten through the first chapter yet.

I got my birthday present from Tom early...something about any returns or exchanges at GameStop had to be within 7 days. But I think he just wanted to give it to me. He did stick a candle in an ice cream sandwich for me as a cake. Anyway, he got me the Wii Fit system (this is the part where I think he really wanted a Wii). It is fun...and frustrating. It keeps telling me I'm out of balance and overweight. So I'm learning Yoga which I've always wanted to do, but didn't want to embarrass myself in a class. I've barely done any of the strength exercises, but I will this weekend. I just don't like push ups and lunges. Then there are also aerobics and balance games. Everything has been at a beginner level and you have to earn the advanced stuff, which I'm just starting to get to. Of course boxing was part of the advanced stuff and I about through my arms out jabbing. It has a built in scale so it throws a chart up in front of your face which makes you think twice about the potato chips and ice cream. Okay, enough about that...can you tell I really like it.

So did Beth really get banned from writing any more blogs? I figure Terri's been busy with Conner's graduation...but if you haven't finished the books yet, your too late. Any body out there still running? I have to stop putting work first and start taking time for me. It's just been busy, and I'm too afraid of lay offs. Although sometimes I think it might be a blessing if it happened. Okay, gonna go for now.
