Something disturbing happened today.


So, I train with Daymond Sewall at PHENOMENAL FITNESS.
I am a born again couch potato. But, I need to lose 30lbs.
I hate exercise and love food.
But, something disturbing happened today. I did this long UPHILL bike ride today. I didn't want to do it. But, I knew Daymond would not be happy if I didn't. And, after all, why have a trainer if you are going to ignore them?

All along the way, I could hear Daymond saying,
"Come on Pe-nel-o-peeee, (he has a wierd way of saying my name when I am working out) you can do it."
So, I kept going.
"Just to that next line in the road..... Just to that next car....... Just to that tree....." I panted.
Until I finally made it home.
Exhausted. Sweaty. Nauseous.
Didn't feel this glorious 'high' after working out.

But, the disturbing fact is that, this couch potato actually got off her butt and went for a pretty hard physical ride.
Miracles can happen.

With thanks to Daymond and all those at www.phenomoc.com

Whats with the election in the US?

Whats with the campaigning in this country?

I hate politics, always have done. In this country I am a Demublican! I get fed up with the politicians lack of integrity and sticking to their word.

Here in the USA, its NUTS!!
They started campaigning for the Presidential election about the beginning of this year. Its all we hear about on the TV and internet news.
The election is not until NEXT NOVEMBER!!!

Not everything about the UK is best, far from it. But, the election campaigning system is.
ONE MONTH. Thats it! One Month.
Thats enough for me.
And.... they have restrictions on the influence of outside political groups in fundraising and political advertising.

Come on USA, there is better things to spend our money and time on!

ipad2

So excited.

Getting an ipad2 soon.

Wanted one for ages. How useful. How portable. How fun.
I am just a geek at heart. LOVE gadgets!

Ordered it ages ago, online.
Why?
'Cos I have a son who works at Apple and he gets me 25% discount!
Nice!

But, they are back ordered, so I wait.
And wait.
And wait.

Its like expecting a baby, but less painful.
Or waiting for Christmas.

So, here I sit, by the front door, waiting for the FedEx man.

Waiting, for my ipad!
