2009/273: Soccer

The fall season is in full swing! We had our third game this past Monday…. after two games having to be rescheduled because of rain (extending the season one week). Hopefully there won’t be any more rain-outs now.

2009/271: Oh How I Miss…

… sitting by the pool after a good work-out, feet in the water, watching the kids swim, and chatting with my best friend.
It’s so sad, going to the gym and seeing the outdoor pools covered up with tarps until next summer.

2009/265: Fitness Evaluation, Part 1 And 2

When I joined the gym in June, the membership manager asked if I wanted a complimentary fitness assessment, but I declined. I said no again when he asked a few weeks later, but when he asked a third time, I finally said yes (to shut him up).
He set me up with a trainer for July 22, and when she took all my measurements, she said that they could do that once a month to track my progress. I finally set up the second appointment with her for yesterday (two months after the first one) and here are the results…

Weight:  -13 lbs
Neck    :  no change
Chest   :  -1.5 inches (darn!)
Bicep   :  -0.5 inches
Forearm:  -0.25 inches
Waist   :  -1.5 inches
Hips     :  -2.5 inches
Thigh   :  -1 inch
Calf       :  no change

You didn’t think I would post my actual measurements, did you? 😉

These were probably the most interesting flowers we saw at the Dallas Arboretum on our recent trip there. Couldn’t find a sign that said what they were…

2009/256: Glimpse Of The Future

I can just see her fifteen years from now, walking down the street just like this, but her shorts are replaced by a long, flowing skirt, and her socks and tennis shoes are replaced by 3″ heels.

2009/253: Videographer

This was during Nick’s visit, on the day that we went to play soccer. Nick gave Melissa his camera so she could take some pictures for him, and not only did she take pictures, she made some videos, too.
