Saturday morning and I was able to sleep in a bit. Very nice. I've finished my elliptical workout, am in the midst of laundry and it looks like we'll venture out to do a Costco run and a bookstore jaunt later today. Hubby needs a couple more paperbacks for Mexico relaxation!

Yay--I'm the first reply! :D How long have you been working out on the elliptical? I lost much of my weight due to my elliptical. I bought it at a garage sale this past spring for like $30 (and it's a nice one!). I used it for several months and only just recently have gone back to my treadmill, just to break up the monotony a bit. It's a great calorie-burner, though. When do you leave for Mexico, by the way? I know it's very soon.

P.S. 4:30 a.m.???? And I felt sorry for myself for having to get up at 6am every day. LOL

I've been working out on my elliptical forever!!! LOL!!! It is a really expensive one that we bought like 15 years ago!! I love it!! So, I've worked out on it on and off for 15 years ... but faithfully, almost every day since January 09 ... exercise works for me. We began our trip to Mexico this coming Wednesday!! I like treadmills too but do not own one. I usually watch DVD's while I do the elliptical ... keeps me distracted!!

Hey, it's held out for 15 years. That's a great deal, then! I am impressed that you do it every single day. What dedication!

So you are an early riser also! My workday alarm is set for 5:00 am but I ususlly wake on my own around 4:25 am. Do you enjoy your commute to and from work? I do! The commute is a great way to shift gears from employee to wife.

moose: a google search did not tell me what part of Mexico you are going to. Is it public knowledge? ;-)

Whatever you do, DO NOT REVEAL the name of your Mexico hotel - not only would you have a bunch of FS members showing up; maybe a 100,000 other strangers from around the world ...and you'd have to buy Dos Equis for everyone! (LOL)

LOL at all us FS folks showing up in Mexico! What a party that would be! Sleeping in IS wonderful... I didn't get up until after the crack of noon both days this weekend! Back to 5am tomorrow. You must be bouncing off the walls, waiting for Wednesday to come! I'm so excited for you. And frienvious. :)

I thought 6:30 was early! Have fun getting ready for your trip!

Yes .... it is a secret where I'll be in Mexico ... however, just for you Info ... its initials are PV!! LOL!!! I'm afraid if y'all showed up in Mexico I'd lead you all astray with Margaritas, Cervezas, chips & fresh guacamole!!! Maybe a few fish tacos, some authentic carne asada ... gosh we'd have to have group guilt upon our return!!!
