Beware!

Okay, as Shannon pointed out, my last two posts have had guns in them and could make people think I'm uptight (only sometimes), crazy (no, just irreverent), or a maniac.

I assure you, I am none of the above . . . I am in fact, a teddy bear!



Just kidding! Really!


Had a rocking week with training! Over 7,000 yds in the pool and a total of 13+ hours of training. I still get excited when I think of the fact that I can move that much compared to two years ago this month, when I couldn't walk out the front door to my car in the driveway without being totally winded and in major pain. Yay! And did I mention that my chronic back pain I suffered with for 23 years is gone! Double yay!



Hope you have a really great week!

HHAHAHAHA. Love the teddy bear. Great job on a great week. Keep it up. I have back trouble too that I'm hoping will disappear after I lose more weight. You are truly an inspiration to us all. Keep on Keepin' on.

You're a much cuddlier teddy bear than that one. Yay on the back pain - it's a testament to exercise. Yes, I'm leaving the VA! Will write a post about it this Friday. Of course, I'll keep in contact!!
