Post. Repeat.

I was thinking the other day how many new bloggy friends and Twitter friends I have met in the last six months or so. OK, maybe not MET, but "met" - you know what I mean. Except I really HAVE MET in real life a few of you. Well, really only three. But isn't that, by definition, a "few"? Sorry, I digress....

Anyhoo, I started this blog a little over a year ago and I know the majority of you weren't around then.

So, first of all, thanks for tuning in to Me and My Good Life every day. {waving}

Second, I thought that while my relatively new blogophiles may "know" me, you really may not KNOW me....

So, I thought I would rerun a post that I wrote last July titled "My 100th Post....So you think you know me?" And it is 100 things about me. Wow. Aren't you glad you tuned in TODAY!?!? Seriously, what a turn off. I can hear all of you closing out of this blog right now. click

Actually, today's post should really be called "My Life Is Nuts Right Now And I'm Too Tired To Think Of A New Blog Post".

But we're all gonna' pretend like it's just me reintroducing myself to my new readers? OK? OK.

Go forth and do good things today people.

It's a stretch

I took the pushup test last night and was able to squeak out 10 girlie pushups. I'll start the first day's schedule tonight. I actually meant to do them this morning, but I forgot. I did another show that I tivo'd. This was called "Stretch Max" and it was pilates/yoga with a resistance band. Lots of good stretching. I'm so wishing I had found these shows while I was training for the marathon - they would have been great for cross training days. The Bloggie Doggie was sound asleep and snoring the whole time I was exercising very interested in the exercise show and was doing a little meditation himself while I was streching:

Anyway, after I got out of the shower, I realized I forgot to do my pushups. So I'll tackle them tonight. My right shoulder is a bit sore this morning, but I think that's from playing Wii on Sunday. The schedule for week 1 looks like this:

Week 1

Day 1: 7, 7, 5, 4, 5
Day 2: 9, 8, 6, 5, 7

Day 3: 10, 8, 8, 5, 10

Do you remember what you were doing 27 years ago today - maybe even right this minute? Mom, Connie & I were watching Price Charles & Diana get married. I so vividly remember getting up very, very early so we could watch it all. It was just like a fairytale wasn't it? She was just so beautiful. And that day she was becoming a PRINCESS. It just all ended up so sad and awful. And I guess he really only loved Camilla from the start anyway. *sigh*

Yesterday it seemed like my eye and contact were really bothering me. By last night, I could really feel some irritation or something under my lid. And now this morning - wowie! It's really hurting. And my eyelid is even a little puffy, like it's irritated or something. I'm sporting the spectacles today and am hoping I can get in to see the doctor this morning.

Today is the 50th anniversary of NASA. Once again, another little shout out from Google. I love those guys.

And finally, proof that my kid watches too much TV:

Cooper: Do you know where the Joker lives?
Me: No where?
Cooper: I'll tell you....after the break.

Peace out people.

Once upon a time, there were three little girls who went to the police academy

Cheryl Ladd is eating birthday cake today. She is (are you ready for this?) 57. I used to love LOVE LOVE Charlie's Angels. Connie and I thought we *were* Charlie's Angels. We would play Charlie's Angels while we were playing outside on our bikes. We didn't always get to watch it because it came on Wednesday nights at 9pm which was our bedtime. So we could only watch it if it was a holiday or we were sick or something. Although I remember vividly one night they were forecasting snow overnight and Mom let us stay up to watch it because it seemed like a sure thing we wouldn't be going to school the next day. Daddy loved Jaclyn Smith. I loved Farrah Fawcett. What 12 year old girl didn't want Farrah Hair? She was even married in REAL LIFE to the Six Million Dollar Man. (Remember that?) Your trivia question for the day: Can you remember (WITHOUT GOOGLING!) what the Angels' names (4 of them) were on the show? 1,000 bonus points if you remember the connection between Farrah Fawcett and Cheryl Ladd.

Watch this and see if this doesn't bring back memories. Especially that music. Man, I loved that show.

For my intervals today, I used the incline rather than speed. It really wasn't fun - but it's not supposed to be. My hate for hills has not changed at all. I probably used a whole new set of muscles today so I'm wondering how long it will take before I start feeling this morning's challenge.

Gauge uses his two front paws like hands. It's totally bizarre to watch him do it. He looks like a cat or a raccoon or something sometimes. He will lay on his back and hold a toy with his paws and play with it. It's weird looking. But he's a sweet puppy. And he loves playing with his toys. He wanted me to tell you to notice the new mop that he got in celebration of the upcoming Independence Day holiday.
