Link to new thread.

New thread. Please post your workouts here. Everyone welcome. :)

:iagree: I don't necessarily need long sleeves. I prefer short or 3/4-length or whatever, but sleeveless just looks bad on me. My arms are chunky. :iagree: I have one pair of jeans like that and I love them. They're incredibly comfortable and flattering at the same time.

My avatar keeps changing also. Weird. Stacia, hoping that your day, week, and this entire year is as special as YOU!!! :) :grouphug:

Hope you have the happiest of birthdays!

I started doing Mark Laham Yoga yesterday morning and then my computer crashed in a very bad way. Had to wait for most of the day until dh could fix it for me. I'm very soon about to do it again - Mark Laham: Power Yoga - Core Strengthening.

When I tried the link, it didn't seem to work. I don't remember many 3-wheelers, but maybe that's just me not paying much attention at the time. Love this :D. I need to remember this and use this phrase more often. Stealing it for future reference, if you don't mind. :iagree:

I wish I lived near you. Sorry to sound a bit weird, but you're the type of friend I want. I read this several times and read it to my daughter also. This post is the best :lol:.

Have woken up late. Plan to do some Classical Stretch DVDs later in the morning. It's a public holiday here, so I'm a bit more flexible with my time.

So sorry. Our car was stolen while we were in the library in San Diego many years ago.

I wish I had a book club like yours near me. Those books are fabulous and am adding some to my wish list. Some books that I have loved, other than several already mentioned: A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini The House of Spirits by Isabel Allende Middlesex by Jeffrey Eugenides

Are you referring to Niagara-on-the Lake? We visited there very briefly in the winter. That whole area was lovely. I've heard wonderful things about Charleston and we often think about visiting there. This - absolutely lovely! :D I hope you find somewhere nice for all. It seems to get harder and harder to pick vacation spots as our children get older.

This. I need to hang around you more often. Love this. I cannot wait for low-rise jeans (as well as all the sleeveless tops and dresses) to go, go, go!

The Walking Company is great - even better if you have an actual store near you. :lol: I seriously need to find one. If I knew a good, affordable seamstress, I'd take some of my favorite pieces and have them all tailored. I often wonder about Spanx and the extremely hot weather where we live. Yes, I hope someone here can give suggestions also. I've heard this before, but wonder how practical it would look here in the tropics - a blazer or scarf - pretty much any third item that I can think of would feel hot. I definitely think that that a big reason that back fat and love handles are such a problem now is that clothing is often so ill-fitted and/or the cut is just not suitable. The term "muffin top" only came into existence when hipster styles came into fashion :glare:. I do wish that designers would stop, stop, stop with all the sleeveless dresses and tops. Most women do not look good in them - especially after the age of 25 or so. Charla Krupp's book is great.

About to soon do 2 Miles of Leslie.

Yes, tea and books sound perfect. We rode the train up back then. I was only 8 and my mom was on crutches that summer. Ali, trust me. Those sunny days in Wales are quite the exception. I lived in Portland during my college years. The weather is similar. The only difference is that you're pretty much guaranteed to have a lovely (although sometimes a bit late), summer in Oregon. In Wales, there are no such guarantees. There were lovely summers in Wales, but again, you can seldom plan ahead. That applies to most of the U.K. I think. Wales just has lots and lots of rain.

I'll try to find it and work on it. Your trip to Snowdon makes me all nostalgic and rather envious. We went there once and the weather was not very pleasant at all.
