Housewife

Yep.  That's me these days.  Actually, I'm unemployed, so I'm being a housewife until I find a new job.  Not digging the whole house cleaning thing, but I realized the people I've been paying to clean my house were slackers.  So much was just being done half-assed.  I'm fixing all that.  I will probably just continue to do it myself even after I find a job.  Like the old saying goes, "If you want something done right, do it yourself."

We had our usual winter escape to the caribbean - this year to the island of Eleuthera in the Bahamas.  Very enjoyable and relaxing trip.  And I got my annual cold on the return.  So, I'm almost over that, and in the meantime I've been scaling everything at the gym.  Still maintaining my meal-planning and weight loss.

I scaled the burpee/pull ups to 5-4-3-2-1-1 double-burpee/single pull ups due to a bicep tendon issue.  Always an issue...always.  :)
