Tuesday Roll Call
Good morning!
Wouldn't you know it? My kids both have picture day at school today, the windiest day ever. They will probably both end up looking like Don King. Oh well.
I started exercising again last month. Slow and steady wins the race, right? I actually ran on a treadmill the other day. About 11 minutes out of 30 (5, then 3, then 3, interspersed with minutes of fast walking on an incline) It was not impressive, but I did it and plan on building up my endurance a bit. I am not doing it to lose weight (have been at goal for about 18 months), but to keep my heart healthy and maybe tighten up my tush and legs. We'll see.
Hope everyone has a good day!

Good Morning, It is not only windy this morning, but dangerous too.
I am planning on leaving for work a bit early, since I have to drive rural roads to get to work, I want to be able to drive a bit slower. High profile suvs, crossovers, vans,ect, are not good transportation on days like this. STAY SAFE TODAY!!!
Put dinner in the crock pot, so I won't have to cook tonight.
Huggles,

Hello everyone
It's pretty nasty out there. My umbrella broke, I wouldn't even bother with an umbrella. Mine practically few out of my hands. I would still rather have this weather than a blizzard.
Well my workouts are going well. I am still not liking them. I wonder if there will ever be a point at which I will enjoy working out...
I got to get back to work. Try to have a nice day.

Good morning Chris and the rest of Illinois!
I had no trouble getting to work today even though I take Hwy. 20 which is pretty wide open. The bad wind must have been north of me since Todd actually called me to warn me how bad it was when he took Hwy 2 into Rockford. Now, all we have to do is get home safely.
Nicole-----30 minutes is pretty darn good with 11 minutes of RUNNING!!!! GOOD FOR YOU!!! Do not minimize how great it is. Toning up is great as are the mood benefits.
Crystal----They say that it takes 6 weeks to develop a habit. I DO know that I DID look forward to working out back when I did it every day. I am now working to get back into that mind-set. Hang in there, it WILL come!
I plan on watching "The Lovely Bones" tonight since I borrowed it from the library.
Everyone stay safe!

Good Evening Everyone!
Well I am home safe and sound. It is windy out there. Our office is in an open field but it did not seem bad today. I dont know if the winds were at just the right angle or what. The winds right now are at 30 mph so who knows.
Today went fast. We are working on our halloween project which made the day pass by faster. In fact I was so absorbed in making paper chains and answering the phones, I did not realize that I worked passed my end of shift time until I glanced at the clock.
Ooops. Our jailers will have a hard time with that one. They dont want you working overtime.
No plans tonight -- just to stay snug inside. Crystal, I am so proud of you on your exercise ventures. Everytime I want to develop a plan, something else goes wrong with my body and prevents me.
Ugh Nicole -- More power to you
Lisa and Dawn, be careful on these early morning drives. My supervisor just hit a deer on the way to work yesterday and totaled her car.
Have a great evening
