You go, girl. :)<BR/><BR/>I think it's easier to workout at a club because you put more effort to it. Now that I am not working and going to school, I had to cut expenses and it was the first to go. :( So I workout at home. I find I have to do it early in the morning or I end up not getting a workout done at all for the day. Things get in the way. Kids. Neighbor kids over. Supper. Dishes. So morning it is. :)Sharihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14743533586969447238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35048242.post-12655267008198988592007-08-13T10:24:00.000-04:002007-08-13T10:24:00.000-04:00I judged pretty much everyone I saw there todayLOL...<I>I judged pretty much everyone I saw there today</I><BR/><BR/>LOL.

Most of all she loves running down the tracks of course!<BR/>Only one sleep to school so I'll be back to my regular kid free hike every morning - I'll force myself to go on the days we've been up since silly o'clock as I'm sure the air will do me more good than slugging on the sofa for an hour!

That's the fun of writing, I can create characters my readers (and I) will love, hate, mistrust, lust after and more. Hmm, I think you can do that in non-fic too though can't you??

Being away from the woods I'm away from noises and sights and distractions that can tire and trouble me.<BR/><BR/>You look to me like you're in fine shape anyway, and you're certainly enviably skinny. Girls don't generally get into barroom brawls or other such events that require great strength anyway.<BR/><BR/>And there's also that kick ass State Trooper to protect you.

I had an elliptical at home that I used for rehab after I had knee surgery in my early 20s. I used it regularly until I had Hutton, and then it started taking up too much valuable toy space in the "bonus" room. I know it would have been moved into our bedroom to serve as clothes hanging space had I not sold it to a friend. I still miss it sometimes, but if I <I>really</I> wanted to work out at home, I have more than enough equipment to do so. I just choose to be a lazy bitch a bit longer, and hopefully will get back into the gym habit when school starts again!Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15397166252681075107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35048242.post-16157264952850340282007-08-10T00:50:00.000-04:002007-08-10T00:50:00.000-04:00I walk my dog a couple of miles a day and figure t...I walk my dog a couple of miles a day and figure that's enough of a workout at my age.The Anti-Wifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02027321787352577548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35048242.post-66803872429456083302007-08-09T19:38:00.000-04:002007-08-09T19:38:00.000-04:00YOU WHO CALLIN' SKINNY?
