Red Wine and Rob ...

Thomas that is. Mr. ESPN bought me his new cd today and I am listening to it as I catch up on my blog reading. So sweet of him. I went to the gym today and intended to run 3 miles but got there late and only ran 2.5 miles. I had a meeting with a personal trainer to get an evaluation. Basically I rated - average - I thought I would be a little above average but oh well. He gave me some good ideas on how to change up my routine - like doing cardio less days and mixing in more resistance training. I am going to research online some workouts. Does anyone have any suggestions for active rest weight workouts or where I can find one? I know not all of you are into working out but a few of you are so any advice you have would be greatly appreciated. We talked to Chatty tonight and she was playing WII with Aunt B's boys and doing great without mom and dad. Our neighbor across the street brought Bia the cutest monkey cupcake and a balloon since she knew she was an only child this week - so sweet! We truly have the best neighbors.

Neighbors can make all the difference in your life, huh? We had the best in Texas.....and not since then. Dreaming of finding them again one day!

I'm a big fan of yoga for resistance training..I did the lifting weight thing during the winter which is good too. But yoga is great and it relieves stress!

C - Eric has offered to come as a "guest" to the gym with me some time and set up a work out routine for me. We could coordinate and I bet he'd do it for you too. He's had a personal trainer for some time now and done lot's of different things at different times.
Want me to set something up after the holiday weekend?
