Scale Back Alabama

This year I am participating in the Scale Back Alabama program where you aim to lose 10 lbs in 10 weeks. I'm on a team with two co-workers and my husband. I'm not really planning on some crazy diet plan so I am more focused on eating healthier items, portion control and exercise. I have started on the elliptical for 30 mins twice this week. My knees are killing me!!!

Now on tv . . .

I'm am so excited to see that Twilight is finally on the tv movie channels!!!! Now, I don't have to constantly dig out my DVD. I think since this weekend, I have caught pieces of the movie three different times and I always stop when I run across it as I channel surf. Love it!!!!!!

Keeping Up My Resolution

So far so good! We have been rinsing out our cans and plastic bottles along with saving various newspaper ads that come in the mail. I have totes set up in the basement for each of the recyclable items. Plus, I have learned what plastics 1-7 means due to the fact that the place to drop off can only accept plastics 1-2.

Haiti

I have been keeping up with the various news report about the relief efforts to help those in Haiti impacted by the earthquake. It is amazing to see that some people were able to be pulled from the rubble alive. I just can't imagine being in that situation. I'm glad that we were able to make a donation to the American Red Cross for the Haiti Relief effort.

Newks with Friends

Last Saturday we met up with the Fly family for lunch at Newks. They were in town visiting a friend who had recently delivered a baby. Glad that we were able to get together and chat for a few.

Happy Birthday, Michael!!!

Monday was my husband's 33rd birthday. Unfortunately, I have been sick so did not get to do anything special that day. But this weekend we will be celebrating and eating some yummy Edgar's strawberry cake!

Blah

The weather here has been quite chilly and now I have come down with a cold :-(
