    Peeping Around the Clock

    Guten Morgen! Today is an off day for me. Update on the DVD player--DH has no clue what is wrong with it. We have another one in a box (great sale, we just never hooked it up to the bedroom TV like we had planned) BUT the Verizon Fios guy doesn't come until FRIDAY to hook up to the new HD TV...

    Peeping Out

    OK, lunch was a disaster. Houdini was NOT amused by eating with the ladies who lunch, dah-lings, and here's a little bullet list of what occured in the Neiman Marucs restaurant: *Took the napkin rings (they put silver butterfly napkin rings on your napkins) and tossed them on the floor...

    I think Women's Health would fit the bill perfectly!

    Favorite workout post-sickness?

    Yes! I do either Basic Step or Body Fusion. I ease back in super easy because I know my stamina isn't there yet and my body is just tired. These workouts are great because I don't have to *think* so much, they still make me break a light sweat, and help me get ready for my usual workouts in a...

    ? For all who work out first thing in the mornings

    I'm another banana eater! I drink water and then eat 1/2 a banana. After my workout, I eat the other half. Then when I get to work, I eat a bowl of oatmeal and have a cup of coffee. I get up at 5-5:30ish to workout and if I didn't eat, I'd pass out in the car by the time I got to work (8:30AM.)

    PEEP-A-BOO It's TUESDAY 12/16!

    I MADE IT TO WORK! Whoo! It was NOT a fun drive. After I got out of my sub-division, like seriously, five minutes from my house, a car was spun around backwards and crashed into the guard rail. We crept along, as there was black ice on the bridges and overpasses and of course, I have to take a...
