One of my favorites...
"[T]hey're in charge of the U.S. Senate so if they want to they can really get in there with the senators and make a lot of good policy changes that will make life better for Brandon and his family and his classroom." ~ Sarah Palin, getting the role of the Vice President wrong after being asked by a third grade student what the Vice President does
Hello hello. I am a Flyers fanatic, a runner, a triathlete, an animal lover, a workout maniac, a stickler for proper grammar, and a lover of challenging Sudoku and crossword puzzles, good books, and great tunes. This blog is about most of those topics -- running, racing, the Flyers, my critters, class ideas, and my deep (and not so deep) thoughts. Please leave comments! I love reading them.

Mother of the Year
This story of unconditional love brought tears to my eyes.
I only wish Edmonton were closer; I'd go adopt Esperanza myself.

Not too shabby for the holiday week. A loss is a loss.
Last week I ran 3x (insomnia completely derailed my workout plans), lifted 3x, and did not make it to yoga. Oh well.
This week's goals:
- Run 4x
- Lift 3x
- Yoga if possible on Friday or Saturday (I'll check the holiday class schedule)
- Stay warm in my heat-less office!
Merry and happy to all.

MP* Quote of the Week!
(*Moronic Palin, for those who forgot)
"Going out there and winning this would mean a lot. It would be like a big middle finger out there to all the people out there who hate my mom and hate me." ~ Bristol Palin, on live television during the finale of Dancing with the Stars
Stay classy, Bristol.

Not bad. 151 this morning. It's moving in the right direction, at least!
How did I do on last week's goals?
- Skipped only one full day, but skipped a few workouts during the week nonetheless. For example, Tuesday I didn't feel well so I just lifted and skipped my run. Friday I ran out of time and didn't run, but I did teach a boot camp class. You get the idea.
- Did eat more fruits and veggies. And M&Ms.
- Lifted weights 3x. Yes!
This week's goals are:
- Get more sleep.
- Run four times.
- Lift weights at least two times.
- Make it to yoga once.
I can do this.
How are my partners in crime doing???

This week's goals
I started the week at 152 again. Considering the fact that I skipped four -- yes, four! -- workouts last week and ate out all weekend in NYC, I am OK with maintaining.
I've decided to make my goals public, again in the hope that doing so will shame me into meeting them.
This week, I will:
- Not skip any workouts (that means one day off, and one day only)
- Increase fruit and veggie intake
- Lift weights at least twice
Clearly, I'm subscribing to the KISS method. :)
