Plus, you get the optical illusion that it's all uphill. This is bad on a long run ...
You'll be an hour and a half from me... and Springfield actually has some hills compared to Champaign - Urbana where I live. :pQuote:

I think Mother Nature hates us, it was 36 degrees this morning going up to a high of 57!!! It's not like I live in Antarctica or something, it should be lows in the 50's and highs in the 70's by now. :(
Isn't it funny how different we can be?! :pQuote:

BSG - That is so neat!!!!
I got an email from one the agencies I applied to... they want to set up an interview! Plus, I am still in the running for the one I hit it off with at the job fair.
I hate this whole process, though.
I sure understand where you are coming from! I think we are in the high 20s tonight and low 50's tomorrow. Yikes, that is just too cold.Quote:

I went to my 40th HS reunion last night. I didn't actually graduate from this school, but since I don't feel any connection to the small private school in Miami I went to for my last 2 years, I have reconnected with a few people from my childhood here in MA. At 4 PM DH and I decided to stay overnight at the hotel. As we checked in, the girl at the desk (maybe 25 years old) said, "Wow, all of these people checking in for this 40th reunion look so good. What's with you guys?" First I thought, great, they probably all had plastic surgery, but I laughed out loud, as looking great would be typical for this group.
She was right. They did look great, but not in a surgery kind of way. A few of the guys looked bald and a bit paunchy (interestingly, the ones who came alone), but women looked fab.
I had fun, even though it was a smaller group than the last one I went to and I didn't know quite as many people..
Nothing since Sunday :eek:!
Hope everyone is ok. I went for an eye exam and was told my eye pressure was high, so I get to be dilated tomorrow (Mom has glaucoma, and well)
Writing like crazy, and fixing to take another Research trip to Indiana - get to a revolutionary war re-enactment (need to find less expensive hobbies)
I'm havin tons o fun doing personal training :cool: :eek:. Weeeeehar..
Now if i could just get my brain to send the right message to my hands when i'm doing outward-inward arm movements (in a push up stance but moving hands out out out then in in in..)
Time to close up the house again...
While I'm sitting on the front porch, enjoying what's left of the sun - now covered with thin clouds - and listening to some Cajun music blasting through the open windows... i just heard the heater come on (some lint got zapped in the electronic filter.
Was a nice warm day. Too bad it didn't last :(
