Following sneakily

I've been thinking about growing potatoes. I'd only done it once before by accident in my compost heap.

Long time! In a calorie deficit, I'd expect any strength gains to start to slow down, if not stop. No big deal. Just try to maintain until you're ready to throw some more calories at the sitch. And definitely hold back from going to failure. The squats don't sound to worrisome since your dominant side (I guess) took over for the last rep. Maybe take some thigh measurements to see if there is a size difference. Although, lunges are pretty great. Work the grip. Always worked the heck out of my glutes. And you can work different planes by lunging diagonally or laterally.

Ha! I think the longest I let my registration go was 13 months! But I was also working night shift, so getting to the DMV just wasn't in the cards. Sounds like your workout recovery must be in tip-top shape with that good resting heart rate!

Ugh. I'm so turned off by this new layout.

Oh...I was thinking to start taking bets. Ah well.

Dog Fight!

Thanks! Sooooooooooo cuuuuuuuuuuuuuute! He's adorable, but feisty! Bit up my hands yesterday! Haha! Yeah. The way he hops is so adorable! I've been meaning to get a vid of him playing with my brother's dog...so adorable. How could anyone not like puppies?

Haha! I could imagine. No one checks me out Or I don't pay attention

All my eggs are in the Colorado basket! Or Hogwart's. That'd be a pretty good school to work at.

Puppy videos!

Things have been going so well. Not just with the challenge...just like everything. Got a Magic Bullet blender for my birthday...I'm loving it. It works so well and helps me hit my calorie needs more easily especially when I don't feel like eating. Weight dropped a little bit...probably from all the running. So I'm being more careful with calorie replacement. It's looking like 15 min of running has been about 200 cal. Last week had some beautiful weather and temperatures, so I couldn't resist getting at for an extra run on the C&O Canal Towpath. Started off this week with 5 miles but it was a little chilly with some overcast and started raining the last 1/2 mi of the run. Got a phone armband for running to help facilitate my new love of "Zombies, Run!". Also, got new sport earbuds to replace the ones my dog chewed up last year. And speaking of dogs... Got a puppy!

Thank you!!! Update time...

Glad to be back? Haha! Just go ahead and say you looked good at the gym So glad it's getting better!

Wow! Look at you go!!!

My brother is in a similar situation with his school. He likes teaching in Loudoun and the commute to the school isn't bad...but he just doesn't like the school. So he's been thinking about a move. Now my mom...she is recently retired, but taught at several schools. From her, "A change in schools can make a world of difference. The administration, who you teach with, the parents, the kids...it's about finding a good fit."

Oh my! Why does it have to be 3hrs away from me?! We have Berkeley Springs up here, but it's not quite ax luxurious.

Doctors and procedures are more important though! Just a lil impromptu rest...

Thaaaaaaaaaaaank you! Thanks, Jess! Missed flagellation class though YES!!!

Nice one.

omg. That sounds amaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaazing.

What's weird is, I don't like either of those classes on their own. But multiclass and it's...magic. I'd definitely give bard a go if I had anyone to play with anymore.

I went years and years ago. I think it was still the 90s! I was in Rome, Venice and Florence. Absolutely loved Florence! Had some amazing meals...
