Love/Hate Relationship

These are the DREADmills in the fitness center at our apartment complex. I know them well. I love them. I hate them. I would MUCH rather be outside running, but it's cold out there! I'm trying to get myself back in shape for a marathon in November. The last time I attempted this, I ended up with a stress fracture in my right leg. I'm opting for a more forgiving surface to run on for a couple of months, then I'll slowly make the transition to outside running in the Spring. That's my plan and I'm sticking to it!

Welcome, Welcome Sabbath MORNING!!

This photo was taken at 8:45 am this morning! What's so exciting about that you ask? Well, it means that church starts at 9:00 am and WE ARE HOME BY LUNCH TIME!!! I love the early church schedule! I can't say it's always been my favorite, especially when I had young children, but now that I'm only responsible for getting myself ready for church, it ROCKS!!! Now, if they only had an 8:00 am start time, life would be perfect! ;-)

Puzzle Me This

Today was a COMPLETELY relaxing day. We went for a 2 hour walk this morning through a beautiful golf course with winding trails, streams and bridges, came back and took a nap (heaven), and then I put together my annual New Years Day puzzle. I was so excited to find this puzzle of Times Square (one of my new favorite places!) It has 765 pieces and is 3 feet wide. I like it so much I think I may have it matted and framed. I think it would look nice in our little living room above the couch.
