Wendi ~ you could try changing up the lacing to ease the snugness…but ultimately, IA that a running specialty store is your best bet. Fleet Feet is tops, in my book. With regard to 4DS premixes—me too! I’m glad the self-tanner has worked out for you. They seem to be so improved from how they were back in the day.
Kath ~ we finish the third week in June…hope DD has a speedy recovery. Yay for ice cream!
Wendy ~ glad you beat the late fee…enjoy the sweet new TV!!!...those Apple Airbooks look *awesome*. My first computer was a Mac I bought in college. Was a huge Apple fan and am sorry they didn’t take off the way PCs did. But once I was in the working world of PCs, I reluctantly made the switch. Compatibility ultimately became the deciding factor, but I think they are GREAT machines!…I always enjoy going back to the 4DS…I do love the bells, but well, as we know, changing it up from time to time is good. I will say that I don’t feel my tri’s get enough attention with the kb training, but I *was* able to up my weights (I did bi’s & ba), so I did make strength gains during the kb rotation…*lol’d* at your post to Wendi.
Christine ~ there is something about the title “Carlos’ Latin Xplosion” that amuses me. }( Now that is one review I look forward to hearing.
And do tell us about your stellar review!!! LMBO at Jimmy’s hotel setup. Now that guy’s got the life! :7
Carole ~ yeah, I thought your DS cracked a joke or mistakenly didn’t take him seriously at first—I didn’t realize she was actually telling him to find a way to the clinic on his own!...Glad BIL has been released.
Jackie ~ well, I actually did kind of sucky with the eating today. I went on a fun-size candy attack and ate the equivalent of two Kit Kat bars.
Definitely understand about no time for personals...would be great if you can just check in while things are hectic.
Shelly ~ OK, good. Me too.
MWAH! :* I would have to make adjustments to the Novice Supreme plan, too, b/c it’s 30 weeks. His other novice plan is 18 weeks. I think I will use all 3 as a guideline. Your post to Dallas made me laugh out loud…too funny!
Dallas ~ I didn’t realize that was an option—wonderful! That gives you some more time to figure it out, and either way, you’re supporting a great cause. Sorry about the disturbing email. (((HUGS))) I would think if your laces were too tight, you’d likely feel it along your instep.
Posh ~ well, now that is a relief! Usually you are such a kidder, but I couldn’t tell if there were genuine bruised toes on that one or not, and I felt bad. I’m glad you weren’t offended! All of the plans I’m dabbling in have 4 days, including the long run, and IA that is what I’d like to shoot for. Maybe if I hit my goal weight, I could up the mileage again, but I guess I like to be kinder to the ol’ joints nowadays. Lorie is off having fun! Miss her, too.
Sunny ~ I think Wendy discarded the anti-Target campaign.
Oh yeah, you know I am all about the skiing on that balance board! But tell you the truth, I don’t play my Wii that often. It’s been about a month…However, I am hoping that Wii Ski will give me my skiing fix during the off-season!...Oh yeah, next time don’t let the funkiness keep you away…you are definitely missed when you don’t post…and hey, we are all entitled to some crabbiness now and then!
Gloria ~ no, I haven’t read that one…but when I taught in the low-income district, I was engrossed with all the literature on poverty, the achievement gap, etc. Now I have a completely different nut to crack—the overachiever students, helicopter parents, zero diversity, censorship, demand for A’s. But yes, in my old district, much of my time was spent putting out the fires caused by the kids’ crummy home lives and trying to sell them on reading and writing. It was a hard decision for me to leave because I felt like I was selling out. In fact, I wasn’t actually looking to leave, but a colleague and friend who became an administrator in my current district sort of lured me over. Anyway, I am now glad I made the change. My old building became a toxic place, and in general, I think I would have ultimately burned out from that environment. It takes a lot out of you to try to be so much to the kids. Tomorrow sounds like a YUMMY day! Keep us posted about the fires. I hope your students stay safe.
Linda ~ it’s a little bit different than the Novice I and II…how’s your DD doing?
WHEW! I believe that catches me up.
Oh, almost forgot about my workout: I opted for the EXT tonight instead of my run. Kept myself entertained (or perhaps slightly repulsed) with Charles Bronson in what must have been
Death Wish 21. Man, those movies are creepy! With the creepy synthesizer music, to boot!
Have a great night!
