On Vox: A post of some worth
I haven't posted in a while, as I don't really think I have anything interesting to say.
WW is still going well. I'm down over 36lbs this year. That pretty much rocks. I will be interested to see if people that haven't seen me in a while can tell. This week the hubby and I signed up to run a 5K on his birthday and I'll be hopefully getting a new bike and doing more triathlons starting this spring.
I'm still feeling a little out of sorts about my Mom being gone. I hate random crying, now of which I am the queen. Stupid things make me cry: wrapping paper, opera, recipes, etc. Grief sucks big time. I am reading some grief books which I have found helpful, but they have the most awful names, one in particular: Motherless Daughters.....geez. My Dad seems to be doing just fine too. Thanks for all your thoughts and prayers for our family. I'm still having a hard time feeling Christmasy.
My laptop should be back up in working order soon. One of the fellows I met at the conference we ran at Ft. Bragg does that kinda thing and he is basically fixing it for me at cost. Woot!!! It's been killing me to have a fairly decent laptop out of commision this long (display is getting replaced - can't remember all the technical bits, sorry techy friends). Hubby's computer also got wiped and is running much better. Need to get some anti-evil software on it to keep it running smooth. Somehow in the process of re-intalling XP, his sound card went caplooie, so that will need to be fixed, but that can probably happen for cheap as well.
Rubi and Elka are doing fine. We need to get Elka her own pillow, as she is trying to crowd us out of our own king size bed or run Rubi off of the dog bed.
Hope this was somewhat interesting to you all.
