Good for you Irish. I wish there was a Pilates class around here. I tried it on my own with limited ( = None) success. Good luck to your son in his game tonight. I'm missing the high school football games something awful, and it's only been a few Fridays. Not that much into basketball. But, the Razorbacks are going to the Sugar Bowl. What I wouldn't give for tickets!!.

Zen, the last time I saw my H, I told him he looked like Hell. He did. He said he could say the same about me, but I had just had surgery. So I ask him what his excuse was. Me, I dropped 28 pounds in all. No exercise required. Just doing double time in my mind everynight for months.

Irish, you are sounding strong. As low as I felt with the Holidays approaching, I'm doing much better than I was afraid I would do. Even looking forward to Christmas with my 3 D's and 5 Grandsons. It is certainly a scaled down Christmas from last year, but it can be great, all the same.
