So, my goal is to write an entry each day this week (to tell about last week's news and activities)--we'll see how that goes.
For yesterday (Monday) I'll answer Deanna's question/tell about exercising. I know, I know it's only exciting to me (and maybe Nancy).
I haven't had a regular exercise program since my first year of law school, so that's the important part of this. I need to be a better steward of my body, a precious gift. And I'm going to!! So, to motivate myself to get going, I'm going to train for the Rex Lee Run (which is in March. And yes, it will take me that long to get ready). I've wanted to run in the RLR since my sophmore year of college and this is the last chance to not have that be a regret in my life. Last year I volunteered at the Run and watching it actually occur helped convince me that I can do it! Also, I've learned a lot about Rex Lee over the past 3 years (1st dean and essential factor in founding our law school) and I really admire the man - so that makes me even more excited to run.
So, that's the why.
How/what I'm doing. Nancy, my fanatical-about-races-triathlons-etc. sister was thrilled to accomodate me in helping me train. She has me doing sit-ups and lunges every day. And last week I ran/walked a milish each day. This week I'm doing the same - with a break on Wednesday so my body doesn't get too sore and I don't get to bored. I still haven't figured out what alternative exercise I'll do tomorrow, but something else. Last night I ran with Whitney. Today I ran during the sunny, gorgeous afternoon. I'm doing it!!
And now I better go to class.

That's awesome that you can do that! I need to excercise more too. I won't have a car for 6 months starting Jan. 4th. Maybe that will help? I'm excited for you! :)
