Such a great workout today!
Just do it.

I love strength training!  As much as I enjoy running, and could run for days, there is something so great about strength training and pushing your body to the limit in that way.  I find that it is much easier to quantify my progress with strength training than with running.

I did some great back squats, lots of kettlebell work (turkish get-ups, overhead swings, etc.), single leg dead-lifts, stability ball knee tucks, pikes and body saws, just to name a few of the moves.  And I FINALLY conquered the tallest plyo-box we have at the gym!

All in all, a great workout, AND  I am down a pound a half.  I will take it!

Had a sushi date last night at the restaurant where we had our first date.  We happened to be seated in the same spot as we were that night, but this picture was a new addition there.

The waitress came up to our table and said, “Isn’t this the cutest little lovers’ corner?”

Paul’s first reaction was to say, “She’s my ex-wife”

You would have to know our sense of humor, but I just cracked up.
