I’m still alive… not working out, kinda watching what i am eating, and OF COURSE I have an appointment with my cardiologist on Monday. *sigh*

Happy Thanksgiving to all my American friends. We are full, fat, and happy out in West Texas today. The food has been baked, smoked, boiled and cooked, and we devoured it all joyously. Now, while the babies and grandparents nap, there is nothing left to do but sit at the table and drink really bad [...]

Just to update, I am still on the planet…. Well physically anyway. Baby J is consuming most of my time these days. Time marches on however, and I am still working at getting in shape. It’s just not happening as fast as I want it to. I did join the gym and I have been [...]

I think it’s time to close registration again.

Once again you can simply contact anyone here and they can get ahold of an admin and get you up and running.

These will be mine!!!! As will these! and probably these… and these too…. But the latter only to replace a beloved pair of totally worn out ones I already have. I am on the hunt for winter boots.  Can you tell?  I’ve had a long love affair with boots.  I generally buy a pair of love love have to [...]

Wow, so it has been over a month since I posted.  I do hang my head in shame.  I really do have ideas of being a good blogger but I am so darn avoidant!  August has come and gone and I say good riddance.  It was toooo hot.  I honestly didn’t think I could take [...]

Wow what a crazy few months it has been.  I cant really go into details as to why it has been so crazy since I’m only using that as an excuse for why I have sucked at blogging.  It really has been busy…but normal busy.  You know, the kind of busy that goes along with [...]

Ok so we’ve migrated to a new host and updated to the latest version of the software etc etc.. so let’s try and see what happens when we enable registrations again!

Mitral & Tricuspid valves: trace regurgitation presentation Midtricuspid regurgitation with mild pulmonary hypertension… Although the note on the findings says “no problems per Dr Suarez” I want to ask him what we can do to make these small things better… if possible its going to be a long couple of weeks before I can go [...]

I’m pretty sure my title says it all *sigh* LOL August 12th I had an echo-cardiogram… no need to worry, any valve replacement patient should have one every 2 years… and my last one was in the hospital back in July of 2008 Monday I was supposed to see my cardiologist for the results, but [...]

tomorrow, I have decided, is the start of my hard coreness… no more fast food. definitely no more soda… I am going to make the gym a priority at least 5 days a week, hopefully 6. i almost have the hubs convinced we need to start going to bed around 9pm and getting up at [...]

I am a bad suburban hippie!  It has been a month since my last post.  What is even sadder-er is that I have composed several imaginary posts in my head and was too lazy to blog about it.  Hopefully, I will manage to post at least a few times per week from now on.  I [...]

Don’t worry Kinundra.  I have been a bad blogger too!  I have tried to keep up a fitness routine but these last few week have been difficult. It has been soooo hot and my walking schedule has fluctuated from a few times during the week to nil.  Early mornings and late evenings are not good [...]
