Today on a local radio station, a local Biology teacher was giving the host his Freshmen Biology exam (long story as to why). I was so excited I was getting the answers right–and then I realize I should be since I USED TO TEACH THAT!!!

We have had some wacky weather. Monday & Tuesday it was HOT (in the 80s). I'll justifying saying that is hot because we went from cold (wearing sweaters) to warm to that in just a week. There was no time for our body to adjust!

Monday we spent most of the day outside (except for naps). In the morning, I was able to weed while Will played with his trains outside on the front porch and Alex napped. (Alex is one to run towards the road so I can't weed out front when he was awake.) Lunch & dinner were both on the deck. We've decided we've already gotten our money's worth from it–and we've only had it for a month.

If you look over to the left side you'll see a little box with the "May Day Weight Loss Challenge" on it (down below the pictures, sorry you'll probably have to scroll down).  I am joining in an on-line weight loss group–and you're welcome to join as well! Starting Tuesday, each week I'll be posting how much weight I've lost (hopefully not gained)–but not my actual weight. Y'all don't need to see that!  I was pleased with the weight loss last summer, but gained it all back during my "break" from exercise during the winter (Um, if I didn't do it all fall or winter is that a break? Or just quitting?) It was NOT a good thing to take a break from. My back problems the last few weeks have made me realize I must make that a regular part of my daily schedule. 

SO– my goals are to work out daily (5x a week), cut out the snacking, and do some extra moving around with the boys during the day (ie. going for a walk, playing "I'm Going to Get You!", etc.).  Want to join? Click on the button to find out more!
