Happy New Year

Me and Anjali

Craig rockin' out.

2010 - spare is the new word

Had a fabulous welcome the new decade day today. All I did was throw stuff out. It was heavenly. My desk is now visible. I no longer have piles of papers all around it. I can walk into my walk in closet. Then I went to the gym and did not do couch to 5k (you are supposed to skip a day). I rode a bike and read my new mystery novel. Waiting for Craig to get home so he, Catherine and I can sit down to the lovely meal I made while I was riding the endorphin high of purging bags of clutter.

This is not me

But this is what the beginning of the Mountain Dell cross country ski circuit looks like. So heavenly!

Lets get physical

This post is mainly for Alison who warned me about "week 4". Got the idea from her to download the Couch to 5k application for my ipod touch and embarked on their promised: in nine weeks you will be running a 5k. Of course, calenderwise I am on week six, but only part way through week four app-wise (Hey I invented a new word). Alison warned me that something shocking happens between weeks three and four, and I know what it is.... this week you are actually running for MINUTES at a time. Week three had a total of nine minutes of running each day (broken up into bite size morsels) and suddenly this week it is sixteen minutes and the morsels aren't so small anymore. But, nuff complaining. I did get through the second day of the three day week. I dread to see what week five holds....
