Good morning friends! This is a card I made awhile ago with a Penny Black stamp. If you haven't caught on by now, I'm a big fan of Penny Black stamps! Woohooo! The paper is from October Afternoon. I have used this a lot in the past too. Don't these two hedgies look like they are having a good ol' day fishin'?
I wanted to do a quick exercise check-in with you all. I haven't done one in a long time. I am EXERCISING MY FANNY OFF! I am up to 181 miles so far since June 12th. I'm most proud of myself for exercising during all of these rough patches with my arthritis and then my allergic reaction! It hasn't always been easy, but I am determined. My goal for the summer is 300 miles. It was a realistic goal, and I am far exceding what I wanted to achieve. I am just going to leave my goal as is, and keep exercising. I am motivated to do the best I can this summer. I don't think my legs have ever been this strong. My knee is in good shape. It makes me feel good to exercise, and it is the one thing I can control. So how are you all doing exercising? I just can't believe how much of a difference exercise makes in your life. Keep up the good work! Buzz me a note and let me know how you are doing!
Enjoy your Wednesday!



Looks like the pals are having a good time at the fish pond, but NO EXERCISING for them! lol

This card is just as cute as can be, Lana. Can't you just hear them chattering away to one another.
On an exercise note - WHOO HOO, you're doing awesome. I'm happy to hear your knee is feeling good now. Keep up the great work!!! I was a slacker last week when I took a week off from work, but I'm determined to get back on track. Thanks for the reminder! ;)
