Day 31


I received an award today from a fellow blogger MissyM! I am flattered! I will get to that in just a sec, I want to get my regular post out of the way. (This is going to be a long one)

Today was a good day. I made it to the gym, and did 2.20 miles at 2.4 mph. That's 55 minutes! I am almost to 60! That's my goal for Saturday! I want to do 2.4 miles, and 60 minutes at 2.4 so that I can start 2.5 mph.

A HUGE non scale victory: My husband bought me a beautiful watch for Christmas and I could not wear it. It pinched my skin to put it on. I was sad, but he bought me links to extend the band length. Tonight Ashley was here, and she used to work in jewelry. She was going to fix it for me so I tried it on to see if I needed two extra links, or just one. It fit me perfectly! I was so happy!

Congrats on the watch. I had something similar to me happen:

My wedding ring kept getting looser and looser. Then a buddy of mine tackled me off a river raft and the ring was lost forever in the bottom of a river in southern ohio :(

Also, thanks for the award thingie.
