Pushups look good, Jane! I'm scared...I finish week 2 tonight. Just looking ahead I am afraid of week 3...I know when I do the test I'm going to move back a level or two. |

Yes, I started on level 2, but after the test at the end of week 2, I had to move down to level 1. AND, I am struggling on level 1!!! I am going to try my hardest to eek out the last workout in week 3, so I can move on. But, if I can't to it, I will be repeating week 3. WEEK 3 IS HARD!

That is good to know. I should be on week 3 now but with my shoulder hurting earlier, I pushed out day 3 of week 2 until today. Sounds like nexxt week should be challenging.

Paula, I used to design a lot. Not so much anymore. But, I was lucky enough to befriend a really trustworthy source overseas (Bali), which isn't easy to do! So, I began importing about 7 years ago. It's been rough lately because the price of raw silver skyrocketed, but the trend may be heading downward (fingers crossed!).

Might need to order some stuff for the designs I have floating in my head - I still haven't had time to really play with my dremel tool and all the shells I've gathered.

I think it's time for a shopping update.
Deal of the day:
Penney's sent me a $10 off a $10 purchase coupon. Free money, right? So, I head to the clearance racks and find a pair of $48 Nike black lycra workout pants on sale for $9.99. DAMN! I needed one more penny. So, I found a workout tank on sale for $4.99. So, I got $68 worth of workout clothes for $4.98 plus tax. Not too bad of a deal, I'd say. And, they are really cute, too!
