life has slowed down...

:: American Idol is back...lots and lots of auditions coming up. They draw that part out so much...but, I am excited that the series is back!

:: I had a GREAT workout last night on the treadmill. It has an incline function that goes up to 15. You wouldn't think that would be that much, but good gosh! I did 30 minutes, and did an incline of 5, then 8, then 10, then 5. Whew. I was worn out afterwards! The 10 especially was difficult...I felt like I was walking up a very steep trail. Tonight I'm going to just do a cardio warm up and then do some arms and abs.

:: Aspen and I went to the eye doctor today. Aspen has 20/20 vision still thankfully. My eyes haven't gotten any worse, so that's good. She renewed my contact prescription and off we went. I never wear my glasses except for about 30 minutes before bed. But there are so many cute frames out there...I might look around and see about updating my look. And actually wear them!

:: My "dream home" here in Abilene...is for sale! Now, we've never been inside. But it is in our old neighborhood, and when we would do our walks or runs, we'd always pass it. I love the outside. It has a very "french" feel. Very different for Abilene. And the front door. Oh I love the front door. Black, with a big window and a beautiful black wrought iron design. When we picked out the front door for our house, this was my inspiration. I was able to find something similar, but nowhere near as cool as the one on this house. We've seen a few pics of the inside online, and it has beautiful hardwood floors. And a great kitchen. And the backyard...whew...it's amazing. Just how I pictured it would be. Two-story. On the golf course. I can't believe it's for sale. I was very excited, until I saw the price tag...$429,000. Holy cow. Holy c-o-w.

:: Well, as life has slowed down here, my topics for bullets has shortened. I'll spare you, and move on to my workout!
