I'm glad you really did have a rest day yesterday. No fair making fun of the 'warm-weather walkers'! Poor things can't help it. Not everyone is as strong and determined as you! :)

goooooooooood morning back at ya! The temps don't matter to me. I was walking during the summer at 105* and I'll be walking during the dead of winter, when my schedule allows it. It's hard to fit walking into a "regular" routine, since I'm a single mom with 3 kids, but I do walk when the kids are gone to visit their dad. It doesn't get bitterly cold here in cental Texas, but it does get cold enough to layer, sometimes.

My husband and I just returned from our cool weather walk here in the beeeeeyooooooteeeeeefuuuuullllll MIDWEST! I wore my insulated vest, my stocking cap, and gloves. I LOVE cool weather walks because my skin turns all rosey and the cold air feels good on my face! I do not like the cold air on my ears though! I am SO GLAD to hear someone ELSE say that he is a SIMPLE cook! Thanks! I -- too -- have simple cooking preference. I am not familiar with MANY of the foods our Fat Secret companions mention. I just "play along" and say, "Oh! That sounds delicious!" Ha! Have a goooooooooood "Losin is Fun" kind of day!

Hey Mike! It's cold here too...I could finally see my breath outside. I'm excited about winter, though. I love the cold weather. I can't wait to wear some new clothes...I know...so shallow...I love reading your journals...It always makes my outlook more positive...I'm off to burn some calories!!!!

The other morning walkers? - light weights I tell you! Serious walkers know how to dress and never miss a beat - that is the class you are in my friend! It was supposed to be "nice" in MN today - but it still was a little chilly - but I just kept moving around the yard. I thought about you today - my neighbor gave me the last of her tomatoes before we dug up her gardens - I am going to roast them with sea salt, cracked pepper and olive oil so I have them for a little wine tasting soiree next week. Keep up the good work and I like that you know when to back it down so you can recover when you need to. Have a great weekend Mike and thanks for being such an important "buddy" to me during the past year!
