4th

Published on July 5, 2007 in Lisa's Corner. Closed

I had a really nice time visiting with Chelle and Eric. The visit was exactly what I needed…relaxation. We went to a nice restaurant where I ate way too much. Got a surprising birthday present – bead necklaces – my favorite thing in the world next to cardigans of course. Got to go swimming, not once, but twice. But more importantly I got to spend some quality time with the sis. The next time I will see her probably wont be until August. We are just way too busy.

I am looking forward to this weekend. Wining and dining and lots of hiking. Can’t wait!

Another trip.

Well this has been a WHAM! BAM! Vacation summer. We are packing our bags for our Seattle trip. And today my sister asked me what we were going to do in Seattle for 5 days.

Turns out, with the exception of dinner every night and one wedding, we hadn’t planned ANYTHING. So we are frantically searching the internet to find out what exactly there is to do in Seattle. Any last minute suggestions would be greatly appreciated. It appears we have ~3 days where we have to be somewhere for dinner and that is our only plan.

Also – apparently I applied sunscreen to my entire face… except for my upper lip, which is on scorching FIRE.

tv overkill

Published on July 3, 2007 in Lisa's Corner. Closed

I started running again. Not outdoors like I had been doing previously, but inside- at the gym. What would possess me to do this? well…we got new treadmills at the gym. They have TVs attached. So for the past several visits to the gym I have been running 1.5-2 miles simply because I can watch whatever I want on the TV. (Not like I don’t get enough TV in the first place, but whatever.)

I really enjoy running, it makes me feel like I have accomplished something. I just wish my knees enjoyed it as much as I do.

mom knows best

My mom was right. If I just didn’t think about it and not worry about it for a couple of days things would get better. I lost three pounds last week. I stopped counting calories and worrying about how much I needed to exercise and WAAAALAAA! three pounds GONE! Granted this is probably just water weight, but still.

I am looking forward to the next couple of days. Visiting Chelle, getting wined and dined by Lam for my birthday, and then a hike on Saturday. Can’t wait.
