Hi Carrie,

I missed your post. Yes Naperville Il! I grew up in Berwyn. Moved to Downers Grove in 1985 and to Naperville in 1996.

I'm taking the day off! A little under the weather and tired so a rest day is in order...although I'm not getting a lot of rest...lots of chores to get done!

Hope you're feeling better, Linda.

It is still sooo cold here the temp at 9 am was -10. I am heading downstairs to use the elliptical. Not too bad if I use my i pod and watch tv without sound. I was watching that dumb Kardashian show yesterday. It is better not to hear them talk. Hee hee

we finally warmed up a bit...32 degrees, but the dang wind was still *whippin*.
walked: 50 min/ 3.08 miles/ 171 cal burn
total fitness miles walked for January = 42.46 miles

happy trails...

Thanks, Lucy....I am feeling better...sinuses are still a bit stuffy off and on but that's about it.

I did an upper body weights workout yesterday. Today will be lower body and bike.

I had thought about doing a split weights workout all the time because DH goes at the same time and gets done before me but have decided that I like my routine the way it is and he'll just have to do some cardio or something while I'm finishing up. I would have to change my routine too much and don't want to do that.

We are above zero today! Can't wait till winter is over!

4.3 miler through the snowy woods today. It is a balmy 21!!!! This is a long winter and it is only January....

Have been lazy, but getting back into it today. So much going on here but now I am back into the challenge groove.

Thanks for the birthday wishes, Shelley! I had a nice day but not much different than any other day for me! That's fine! I did have a nice phone call with DS#2 last night...he's not much of a phone talker (neither am I for that matter) so all calls from him are good!

My workout yesterday was weights and basement biking. Today will be cardio at the fitness center, I just don't know for sure when. I'm thinking it will be later this afternoon after all the main inauguration stuff.
