Today...

This morning we had appointments at the optometrist--new glasses now ordered! The DH and I are planning to get as much benefit as possible out of his health insurance before it runs out on the 31st.

He's in the breakfast nook now, with the phone and the laptop, in full job search mode. He will probably hit the road after lunch and check out some leads in person this afternoon.

I'm going to go walk on the treadmill in the gym this afternoon. I haven't said much about it, but I've been trying to get that into my routine. As soon as I can go more than a half-a-mile an hour, for more than 20 minutes, I'm going to start over at elronds_walkers and try once more to get to Rivendell. But so far I'm only managing to get over there about twice a week, and so far I haven't been able to walk more than 15 or 20 minutes except once. (And I need to find out how much swimming counts, because the two of us go swimming there twice a week also.)

I hope to get my new purse I've been working on finished this afternoon. When it's done, I'll try to post pics.

And I need to start making a packing list for Scotland!

ETA: And I'm going to be a great-aunt! http://pringlebj.livejournal.com/674.html

Ooooh, congrats on being a great-aunt! I'm sure you'll be a wonderful one!

And YAY for the treadmill and coming back to Elronds walkers! It's been very quiet there lately - we need someone to help bring us back, LOL. I had figured out how much you had to swim to make a mile but decided it was some crazy amount, like 800 meters is a half-mile or something like that, so I decided not to try to count that. It doesn't matter if you're only progressing slowly... I'd love to hear where you're at! Or will you be starting from Hobbiton?

Can't wait for the pics.

Best of luck to your hubby. And to you, with the walking. Sounds good.

Congrats on the treadmill! (I am married to the treadmill this summer since it's way too hot to run outside! :-))))

I can't wait to see the purse pic!

Best of luck to your hubby on his job search and to you on your treadmill. :D

Hee, congratulations, great-auntie! :P And good luck with the walking. I never managed to do it on a regular basis till I bought a treadmill and put it squarely in front of my TV. ;) I salute you!
