I haven’t written since I got back from Ohio, but just so you know, I had a wonderful experience  So many people love my dad, and they came out in droves to show it. I got to see my whole family, cousins, uncles, grandma, etc. and spent quality time with all of them. My mom, of course, went out of her way to put 5 lbs. on all of us, and we all complied. I returned to San Jose exhausted, full, and ready to get back into a regular routine.

This week has definitely be ideal. I have set up a schedule, stuck to it, for the most part, and worked out a few times. The weather has been in the 60’s and wonderful for running and walks outside. I received a lovely bouquet of flowers for Valentine’s day.

I have really started to get back into lifting, with some pain no less. I forgot how much I enjoyed the weight room, but I miss lifting with Chas, or with one of my players, like I used to do at Labette. Knocking on the doorstep of 30, I have realized that it’s not what the scale says that matters. If I am working my body hard, eating right, and feel good, that is all that matters.

I am excited not to have any major plans this weekend. A little relaxation is exactly what I want right now… Hope you all have a great weekend!
