This & That Thursday

- As you can see, I’ve added yet another new picture for the Thursday Buzz.  I’m thinking I’ll keep this one for a while however, as I’m somehow quite attracted to this goofy mutt.

- I went for a walk tonight and it dawned on me how fabulous it is to be able to go for a walk outside at 8pm on January 13th wearing only a light jacket and sweatpants – my fancy sweats of course!

- To the gentleman walking his dog tonight on Muchalaht Drive – I apologize for not realizing you were talking to me when we passed each other.  I had my little mp3 player blasting rockin’ walkin’ tunes on a deafening setting, so did not hear what you said.  Which is why I gave you that goofy smile.  Sorry.

- It was one week yesterday since our family started our new eating and exercise regimen.  P90X can kiss my big fat behind, so I have moved on to greener (read: easier) pastures.  The hubby and girls have decided they are fit enough to stick with the P90X program, but apparently ‘sticking to it’ means doing it once last week.  (Actually… they didn’t even finish the first video – they made it about half way through and decided they were all far too hungry to continue – haha.)

- Exactly who decided that the digital bathroom scale was a good invention?  I really don’t need to know my weight down to the thousandth decimal.  Knowing that I am X decimal 492 lbs is overkill.  I miss the old scales – you know, the ones with the little dial on the top that you could (ahem) adjust to ensure a proper reading?  If you adjusted the dial while you looked at it from the (far) left so that the little line was exactly on zero, and got on the scale, it almost always said that you had lost five pounds!  Now THAT scale I liked!

- On a completely different note – is there anyone local who happens to speak Spanish?  And by ‘speaking’ I mean a bit more fluent than ‘dos cervezas por favor’, because I’ve got that phrase down pat.  If so, please shoot me an email – I’ve said for years that I want to learn another language, but never seem to get around to it.

Happy Thursday Gold River!  And remember – tomorrow is Friday!
