10km Later…*
Well, I did it. After biking to the university last weekend with the hubster (and needing to stop on several occasions to rest or walk up hills) I made a goal to bike to the school without stopping. And today we did it! Because it is such a beautiful day out, after church the hubs and I realized that we simply could not sit inside any longer and decided to go for a nice bike ride. I wanted to try biking to the school again, so he took me on a flatter, albeit longer route, and after 10km and 44 minutes, I made it without dying or stopping once! It…

My List*
I have goals. In fact, I’ve even been keeping a secret list of these goals. I’ve also decided that I don’t want to keep it secret anymore. I started the list a couple of years ago, and I periodically update it and add new things, so it’s a work in progress. There are a number of things in life that I’d like to accomplish, so I figured that there is no better place to keep them than in a journal/blog. So, here they are. 1. Be married in the temple. [DONE!! I was married in the Toronto, Ontario Temple on August 20th, 2005]2. Become famous for something.3. Sing the national…

R.I.P. Legs*
I am proud of myself. Today the hubs and I biked 15 kilometers. That might not sound like so much, but for my little out off shape body it’s a lot. I swear I have an old man that lives inside me and prevents me from being in shape. hahaha Annnnnnnyway, my legs want to die, but I’m really proud of myself. I even weighed myself when I got home and this week I lost 2 pounds! I’m pretty sure that I sweat most of it off biking in 35 degree weather, but I don’t care. That made my day. We woke up semi-early, made breakfast, then set out on…

Missing Home*
For the past 24 hours I’ve been very nostalgic for my little hometown where I grew up. I’ve been avoiding MSN because I’m too lazy to type, but last night I actually went on to chat and talked to a couple of old friends that I hadn’t talked to in a long time. And then I started looking at pictures of everyone together (sans me) and then… I missed home. I miss not being able to go anywhere without running into someone you know. It’s inevitable. You can’t leave your house without seeing someone. I miss driving that 7 minute little strip between Timmins and South Porcupine. I miss walking…

The Good Wife’s Guide*
As I was cleaning out my desk today I came across an article I received in a first year women’s studies class that I thought I’d share. This is allegedly from Housekeeping Monthly, 13 May, 1955, though it’s integrity has been disputed. In any case, it makes for an interesting read. Thoughts?
