Picacho Peak

We climbed Picacho Peak a few weeks ago, and WHEW! that's a tough one--had to use cables and stuff. This is the only picture in which I am not flipping off my husband for dragging me up there. :)

School's out, the last two DVDs of True Blood have arrived, and we're headed to HI on Tuesday night. Should have some snorkeling and volcano pictures soon...maybe even a few where I'm NOT "saluting" my dear husband.

I hope my scrapbooking bffs are ready to get together soon. I'm having withdrawls!!!!!

Oh my...

THIS is good. You might be asking yourself, "Ann, how in heaven's name did you manage to watch tv two nights in a row, and NOT have to watch the Hitler channel or SpongeBob?" It's a mystery, my friends. I got the first DVD from Netflix, and I'm thinkin' I might have to just buy it. Not sure I can wait for the USPS.

Now, this series is WAY racier than the books. Lori, you cannot under any circumstances watch this show! It would freak me out to no end...like when you're a kid and you realize how exactly you got here. ew.

Glee

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this show. It's funny and touching...great television.

XOXOXOXO

Happy Mother's Day to all my mama friends. I love you, guys!

I'm embarrassed...

that I am SO excited about this book. It should be waiting for me when I get home from school today. Um...yes, I do have TONS of papers to grade. They'll still be there tomorrow, right? I need me some smutty-vampire-love.

I bet my friend, Vickie, could use this book right about now! ;) hehe

Pusch Ridge

This was a tough hike. In fact, Scott told me that it's the hardest one we've done. You know what? It didn't feel THAT hard to me now. I'm in better shape that I've been in a long time: 26 pounds gone, cholesterol down to 196 from 245, LDL down to 119 from 164. With diabetes and heart disease in my family history, it came down to more than skinny jeans and cute tops. I want to be around for a long time.

Scott looks great, huh? He did the whole WW thing with me, and I love him SO much for that. It's so hard to get healthy if you don't have support, and he was behind me all the way. Even when HE cooked, he made low point meals. He's a great, great fella, huh...
