Hey everyone! Well, right after I posted last week about Mr. 50by60 testing positive, guess what happened to yours truly? Yup, we both had it!

Summertime blues weigh-in!
Good morning, everyone, and welcome to our old friend, SUMMERTIME! Listen, even though the calendar says it's a couple of weeks away, it was 108 degrees in the beautiful San Fernando Valley yesterday, and as far as I'm concerned, that means either (1) it's summer or (b) climate change is HAPPENING, people! And of course, … Continue reading Summertime blues weigh-in!

Mostly, because the weather was a little cooler (i.e., 80s and 90s instead of 90s and 100s!), I walked every day, and enjoyed it, for the most part (although the last 50 yards are always the hardest!). Still, I did make it … Continue reading Friday Five: My 5 rules for the gym, in no particular order

A different kind of Friday post
Well, it took me a little longer than usual to haul my a$$ out of bed this morning, so I'm temporarily abandoning the "Friday Five" format.
