It's Monday and time to get back at it.Are you ready?Hope everyone had a great weekend.

What kind of workout do you have planned for today?Anyone tackling any 15 min projects?

I'm heading to the track later this morning.Then off to get some groceries.No chickens back yet so I'll either work on the yard or the housework inside.

Have a great day everyone!

I got an early start on Monday by doing laundry, sorting, folding, etc., and some other things until 1:30 this morning. When the urge hits I have to take advantage of it. Got the Explorer washed, mowed, sprayed for weeds, watered the wilting flowers and shrubs, and cleaned up the mess in the kitchen from beach food and snacking before I settled down a while last night. It felt good to get caught up a little, but there's still so much to do around here. I think the two wonderful days at the beach helped to pump me up at least for a while.

Patty, I'm glad you've got some time without the chickens, so you can do some fun things or other things you haven't had a chance to do. I agree you've been doing a great job on the board. Maybe Phyllis would like some full-time help...

Sassy, welcome back! You sound good and energized, so the vacation must have been good for you.

Nancy and Tweety, maybe the rains are moving your way. We were getting them sometimes 3X a day, but haven't had any for the last two days. The sun's rays are so strong down here that even after all that water, the flowers and some shrubs were wilting. Plants are still growing at warp speed, and I haven't finished trimming from last week!!

My 15 min.+ project will be to go through Robbie's outgrown clothes and get them ready for Goodwill. I'll see if some of my stuff can go too -- part of my effort to de-clutter.

The workout will be the Basic Plus one I've been doing, and I may take Katie (Yorkie) for a walk. I'd like to get some shrubbery trimmed later this evening.

Everyone, have a great day!

Rhonda

It's a beautiful day here in NH. . . . . not too sunny, not too hot, not too humid. Good soccer weather, which is what my two teens are doing today - high school tryouts. Joey, the 14yo already went this morning and Amanda, 17, has her tryout at 5:00. That shouldn't be a problem, since she was on the varsity team last year.

Hmmm, so today's workout . . . . I think I'll squeeze in a visit to Curves after work, and maybe a walk, too. DH is gone until late tomorrow, so I'm trying to fit everything in between work and soccer. I'm SO glad Amanda can drive herself (and Joey).

15-minute project? Think I'll sort through Joey's dressers and get rid of all outgrown clothes, which will probably be all of them at the rate he's been going this summer.

Well, a Monday it is! Had to get to work early to do some cleaning (I do that for a little extra income) and get ready for meetings. No time for a workout today, unfortunately. I am really going to miss my club membership - will expire the end of this month. If any of you have any advice on buying treadmills - please email me at:

katsonnet@aol.com. I'm seriously thinking of buying one, but really can't afford an expensive one. I know in order to jog on one, it needs to have a 50" or longer length belt. Wish our neighborhood was safer for jogging . . .

I have to work every night this week except Friday, so I better gear up! DS is heavy into football already - have to go buy cleats on my lunch hour - always something!

Nice to have you back from vacation, Ms. Sassypants! Missed you around here, you mischievous thing, you! Glad you had a good vacation - makes for a fun Sassygirl.

Sounds as though we're going through something similar with our 14-yr. old sons!

It was a balmy 101 here this afternoon, but looks as though it's getting ready to storm. My lawn could use the water. Hope you other guys with the dry spell get some relief soon!
