What are you eating/doing today?
B: 1/2 scoop of protein in my coffee, and a pure protein bar as I was on the run this morning to see my kiddos (they were in Ottawa with their dad).
And the rest of the day is unknown for eats. I do plan in going for a long run at the gym. Sidewalks are still not cleared. And I'm afraid of injuring myself.
Have a great day everyone!
Surgery March 23/2011. Completed three full marathons and two half marathons, two half Ironman distances. Completed my first Full Ironman distance (4 km swim, 180 km bike, 42.2 km (full marathon) run) in Muskoka August 30/2015. Next Ironman Lake Placid July 23/2017!
Went out to dinner last night. they were serving lamb and I was a little worried since I had not had this since surgery. Turns out it was delicious. They also served some great veggies I hadn't had for a while. I think I over ate on veggies. Then they had truffle and a cherry tart. My husband had a serving of truffle and two of cherry tart. Then later he had short bread cookies. He then mentioned he has not gained any weight over the holidays. Grr I hate his metabolism! Fortuately I was so full of veggies and lamb I could not eat another thing.
b. egg and ham
l. turkey soup
s.1/2 protein bar
d. pork tenderloin and veg and salad
s. laughing cow and crackers
Going out shortly for a walk with the dog. I need to buy warmer boots. Can't keep my feet warm

What did you think of the book? I am really disappointed in Patterson's books lately. I just finished the newest Alex Cross and the newest Michael Bennett ones and both were not so great. The last one from the Woman's Murder Club was no hell either. I even read a few of his standalone ones that aren't part of any series and they sucked too.

Hi Tracey!!!
I agree that his books haven't been so GR8 lately.....especially the "co-authored" ones. However, I do like his short chapters which make for fast-paced reading usually.
I have a friend who passes on LOTS of books to me.....next in the line up are "Unspoken" by Lisa Jackson and "The Sins of the Father" by Jeffrey Archer (have always luved "his" books!)
BTW....am STILL enjoying my "Firefox" very much, "Thanks" to you, again. Also, my Brother showed me how to download my CD's onto Itunes and I'm making good progress getting my inventory of about 200 downloaded. Actually, I'd be making better progress if my Brother wasn't sending me 25-30 emails "everyday"!!! He saves all the ones he gets over the year, until he goes for his annual 3 month vacation in Mexico....then, he works on forwarding them all on....YIKES! Normally, drives me CRAZZZEEE when I have more than 10 in my inbox! Most of them are VERY good however (GR8 variety of topics) and the rest I delete. This year, he has.....3,854 to work through!!! If you ever want to receive a "batch", just send me your email addy OK!?!? LOL
MY VERY BEST WISHES to you for a WONDERFUL 2013!!!

The short chapters seem to be what most like about his books. I wish he'd go back to writing just one good book per year instead of one per month. The quality is not good at all. I have the two you mentioned. Not a Lisa Jackson fan but I do try now and then in case I end up liking her but so far no luck. I have to read the first one of that series by Jeffrey Archer. I am trying to get through Book of Negroes but keep putting it down and reading something else instead. LOL
