Day 7

Just over 3 miles on the treadmill, no snow shoveling . . . although there is some that needs to be done. Maybe later? I ended up spending most of yesterday at the mall, trying to finish up Xmas shopping. (Hopefully all that walking counts for *something*, even if it was mostly stop-and-go!) I think I've got it whipped into shape now - finally found something for Jezzi (Technogeek's significant other) that I think she'll like. This should be a good Xmas.

OTOH, all is not good. I climbed on the scale this morning and discovered to my annoyance that I've gained three pounds. Oh, I expected it, it often happens when a person first starts exercising, the body retains more water until the muscles adjust. But it still sucks.

Current movie: The Lion in Winter, the Katherine Hepburn / Peter O'Toole / Anthony Hopkins / Timothy Dalton version. The Patrick Stewart / Glenn Close version is all right, but I like the original better. I've always adored Katherine Hepburn; wish I had even a fraction of her talent!
