Updates

Hi everyone!!! As I mentioned I have been busy with all sorts of challenges...a.nd have been able to check some things off my list!


RUNNING
Was able to bring my running totals closer to my January goal with two great runs. Friday I went for a 5.5 mile run by the beach (made a mental note to do that more often since our house is 4 miles from the beach!). Saturday I took the day off and Sunday I went for a 3.6 mile run by the house right before dinner. I felt great in both runs and my foot only bothered me slightly, but nothing compared to how it was last week.

Only a few more miles this week to reach my goal...and less than a week for my first 5K!!! :)


PUSH-UPS
Guess you will be joining me in this challenge?...the hubster!!. Today we do our initial test to find out what level we are in. From there we choose our recommended 6-week program.

Note for Erpapin (aka: Dad): don't worry...I'm still doing stretching and Yoga (at least twice a week!)...I also do other strength /cardio group classes at the gym to mix it up ;)


COOKING
Last week the challenge was to use Pumpkin...as I mentioned before I made Pumpkin Oatmeal. It was delish!!!. This week's challenge is Blueberries!...I always have my morning cereal with some sort of berries...today it was a mix of Strawberries and Blueberries. Also, for snack I had Plain Yogurt with pecans and blueberries :9 ...YUM!




ORGANIZATION
You didn't think I forgot...did you?. One of my '09 resolutions is to organize one space a month every month this year. This month's space was the closet in the blue room (our guestroom). It wasn't terrible, but look at the difference!..Now the guests can actually use the closet without wondering why we have ties, shoes, fans, purses and camping equipment in there :)

In the organized space I only have the sheets and towels for that room as well as space and hangers for guests.





That is it for now!...I'm trying to choose a space for February but haven't decided on one yet.
