Ok. I've been pretty diligent about exercising since the first of the year and this morning on my run I hit a milestone of sorts. 1.5 miles in 20 minutes. I'm slowly trying to increase my run time to 30 min and then I'll just try to increase the distance covered during that time. I've lost 5 pounds and I feel great. It's one part of my three pronged attack on quality of life. Adrienne came up with some interesting word combinations this weekend that I wanted to put up here so I didn't forget them. I think each is a story/painting/poem or something... Velcro Jesus. Window in the Waves. We met with a financial advisor last night and opened up a couple fo Roth IRA's. Trying to get that 4.3 million I'm going to need to retire at 60. LOL!

I'm not sure if this is a hoax, but apparently our shrubby little president will be giving the go-ahead to developing a nuclear based rocket which would effectively cut the travel time to mars to 2 months. I'm speechless. He's moved down from a 10 to a 9 on my moron meter.

Our beloved Sheila has jumped into the web log sphere in a big way. Check her thoughts, and pictures. Thanks for giving us the window in...

Happy New Year everyone. Gail and Alan had their baby! It's a girl. Sydney! 7 pounds, 11 ounces, born 12/27/2002, and beautiful. Guy and Natalie had theirs too! This on our answering machine - 12/30/2002 1:39pm "Hey this is Guy. We...uh..had the ...uh...baby. Luke William. Obviously it's a boy. Luke William Duncan. 8 pounds, 6 ounces. Good looking kid. He looks solid. So you said to call, so I called. We had to move out of our room because there's a tornado warning, so we are in the interior of the hospital. Anyway, have a good new year. Bye."
