***Tuesday Roll Call***
Good morning all - I'm back at work today after a day off yesterday. The weekend was busy - Friday night my friend came down and spent the night and we were up bright and early Saturday heading out to Manheim for my other porch chair then a stop at the outlets in Lancaster for more shopping and returning. Headed home, cleaned up then drove north to Yardley to spend the day with other friends. Loooooong day but a great one.
Sunday I got up and moving and one thing led to another and I ended up cleaning and re-arranging 3 rooms full of furniture - and while I am physically able to do these things now my mind forgot to tell my body that it is 52, not 22, so yesterday morning when the alarm went off my neck, arms, legs and back reminded me that I am indeed 52 - took some tylenol - rubbed various body parts down with Icy-Hot and crawled back into bed, literally - LOL!! Spent most of the day on the couch trying to recuperate. Feeling better today but still have odd aches all over my body. I even managed to climb onto my recumbant bike last night and do 5 miles - since I'm just getting back to exercise after everything and the miserable winter it really didn't go too bad.
So that's my story -at work today starting to stiffen up a bit again - better get off my butt and get moving!!

Morning Pam and PA Friends!
Pam - I'm exhausted just from reading your post! Wow.
Didn't get to bed until way late last night - got out of class late because of a student having "issues" with her work, then had to get my food together for today after I got home. One thing and another, it was well after midnight before my light went out. I decided last night that today was NOT going to be a "tuesday exception" and that I was not going to the gym this morning. I'm going to try for interval training tonight - last week, that was my plan and I had the car accident on the way home, so hopefully this week that plan will work better.
This afternoon, my team is getting our picture taken for a national award we won, so this morning was a bit debate of what to wear. Ended up with a pair of fitted tuxedo pants and a cropped tuxedo jacket (black) and a red mock-turtleneck. Hopefully it will look good in the pictures! First time I've had multiple choices to select from, which was really nice - still got super-critical of how I was looking, but tried to just cut off the dialog from the subcommittees.
Not looking forward to the drearies in the weather the next couple of days, but we'll get through it.
Hang in there, folks!

Today has been busy, busy, busy. Been at work since 7am, left for about 2 hours for a meeting and here till 5pm. The weather is crappy so my plans for after work for me and the girls might fall through. Nothing else new and exciting. Six more work days left and 10 days total before my Aruba trip.....
