Nancy: Everyone here is thinking of you today and in the next few weeks.
Hope you have a successful surgery, very little pain, and a quick recovery.
Cecilia: Thanks for stopping by and giving me a laugh when I read your song! I listened to the iTunes excerpt and must download now. And it's upbeat enough to add to my playlist.
Jeanne: Thank you for doing this!
Maria: I hate PowerPoint, so can I just contract any future presentations to you.
Wow, you're really giving up a lot of goodies for Lent! I'm sure it's good for you, both physically and spiritually. I don't do Lent formally, but I did do Fat Tuesday. DOOD lived in New Orleans for some time, and in Poland, so we had raspberry-filled Paczi. Yummy. During this Lent season, however, I will trying to eat better. Maybe I need to think of something specific so we can be kindred spirits.
END OF MONTH: Just a reminder. We're headed into the end of the month and need to report our miles/minutes. The link to the thread for reporting 'Ohana's progress is
here, but it's also on this thread's first post at the very top. If you don't want/need access to the Google spreadsheet I'll be happy to put your numbers in.
As for me: Okay, I know it's a shallow publication, but I subscribe to
Self. I always pick up a few tips. And this year I think I'm actually going to try their challenge.
Nothing like a few, or more than a few, extra pounds for motivation.
So today at the gym it was intervals on the elliptical. For the first time in a long time, I was drenched in sweat afterwards. Good start, yes?
And in personal news, DOOD and I are going to be reading George Eliot's
Middlemarch "together" in the next couple of weeks. (We read at different paces, but you get the idea.) There's a meme on BBC books floating around BBC, and I mentioned I'd never read it. Neither had he, so he brought home two library copies for us to read it and discuss it. Has anyone here read it? And, of course, I told him I was up for reading this book so long as it doesn't interfere with my other pleasure reading.
confused.
Finally I just interrupted him and said, "Listen, Snoop Dog, call me back when you can speak English!" and I slammed down the phone! To this day, my kids still ask me if I get any more calls from Snoop Dog!
Seriously, it was great to see so many people here, wasn't it? Especially new WISHers on teams. 
coming your way. I hope that your surgery goes well and that you have a quick recovery! 
for a succesful surgery and speedy recovery. Hopefully you are out enjoying yourself tonight or getting some rest but I wanted to let you know our thoughts are with you.
