I’ve been working on crocheting items for my mother-in-law whose company is putting on a convention in 2012 and to raise money they are having a “Country Store” and plan on selling handmade items that are being donated. So far I’ve whipped up a couple baby blankets, several hats, and a scarf or 2.

Busy, Busy, Busy
It’s been too long since I sat down and composed a post. I’ll fall back to my typical excuse…life got in the way.
Let’s see…I pretty much need to sum up the month of July! The 4th of July was a day spent at home. It was Darling Hubby’s birthday so we fried some chicken, made [...]

Recent Happenings
It’s been a while since I posted. I’ve been busy doing different things and just haven’t had time to post. Let’s see…over Father’s day weekend we went to visit family. On Saturday we went to a surprise 60th birthday party for Darling Hubby’s step father. His birthday isn’t until July 6th, so with the party [...]

A New Workout DVD & A Craft Update
I ended up taking 2 days off from exercising to let my calves heal and I’m glad I did. I don’t think I could have worked out at all on Tuesday and while I probably could have attempted something yesterday, I gave myself one more day to get better. Today the pain it there only [...]

Ups and Downs
Today has been an up and down day. First, when I got up this morning I just wanted to sit back down. It turns out that yesterday’s Belly Dancing seriously hurt my calf muscles. It hurts so much to walk, especially down stairs and I cannot stand on my tiptoes. I thought I’d “push through [...]

No More Dentists & 30 Day Shred – Day 23
I got up this morning at 7 to a whimpering Bug who said his leg hurt. I ate the other half of Bug’s discarded banana, which I smeared with peanut butter and did day 23 of the Shred. It was a good workout and I’m feeling pretty confident that I’m getting better, especially with the [...]

Memorial Day Weekend and 30 Day Shred – Day 22
We had a nice Memorial Day weekend. It started Friday when I carried a barefoot Bug 2 blocks down the street to catch the ice cream truck so he could have his Batman Popcicle that he originally wanted on Wednesday…when I didn’t have any cash in my pocket. Saturday we went grocery shopping and Darling [...]

30 Day Shred – Day 11
Today was a much better day to workout, weather wise. It was not quite 50 degrees and I wasn’t dripping with sweat by the end. I was still sweating, but not as much as yesterday. Today I did everything on the very low impact side. For some reason during the first set of jumping jacks [...]

30 Day Shred – Day 9 – Level 2!
So today I decided that I’d try level 2 for the first time. I was scared after having watched it on you tube last week and wasn’t sure if I was truly ready, but there was no way to know for sure without giving it a chance. Overall, I found it to be a better [...]
