HILDEBEAST'S Mentor Group, CLOSED! (Page 16)

x2.  Me too!

I've had a not too productive week on the workout end.  It is spring break so my routine got messed up.  And it turns out, I really need routine to get motivated for my workouts.  Maybe if I never really settled into a routine schedule that would help.

I plan on a good swim today.  A nice run tomorrow.  Sunday I plan on joining a group of over 40 women for a ride.  1st time I will have done this.  Weather is forecast for rain but hoping it will hold off.  I really don't have good cycling rain gear.

Happy Tuesday!

I hope everyone is doing well.  I feel refocused and energized after a group ride on Sunday.  Just 3 of us but it was fun.  Some hard riding mixed in with some chatting speeds.

I hope to get in a 6 mile run at lunch.  Got in the office early to help make this happen.

So glad to see how well you are all doing in your training... there are a few that seem to have disappeared... if something has come up, PLEASE try to let me know!!  I understand life happening and having to take a break for whatever reason.

I'm healing well, and feeling better each day.  I posted a pic on my blog, it should be a sunscreen ad!  Still just sore enough not to even THINK about doing any kind of training, ha ha!

I'm excited to say that we are most likely adopting a new dog tomorrow.  Our previous dog, Annie, died last June of cancer.

Here are Annie's photos. 

If we do adopt I'll post a photo of our new dog this weekend.

Here's Misty.  She's very calm and gentle.

She looks lovely, Andrea!  I'm sure she will love her new home.

My dog, Mickey, is now 16+ years olds.  He is deaf and kind of walks around the house like Eeyore.  You can tell he's really starting to age quicker month by month.  He's been my shadow since he was little.

Andrea, she's a beauty, has golden eyes like my boy dog, Chase, they'd make beautiful puppies together, ha ha!

Melanie, it is so hard to see our dogs age and know the time is going to come when they are gone, they bring so much to our lives and leave such a hole in our hearts when they pass.  Hope your doggie can hang on a little longer for you... and I totally get the Eeyore picture, my daughter played Winnie the Pooh over and over and over and over when she was little and I can still hear Eeyore talking, ha ha!

x2.  Terrible day.

We were on our way back from a college campus visit (VA Tech) and were meeting my other daughter for dinner @ James Madison University when we heard the news.  Hard to understand how the brain can be so wonderfully brilliant and caring in some and so cold and evil in others.
