Taking Care

Went to my first Pilates class at the gym last night. I really enjoyed it and I'll definitely go again. It didn't even feel like you were working out for an hour, and I even managed to get in some of my leg workout before the class. As somone who's never been able to touch their toes, however, I need to work on stretching.

We took a field trip to MGM this morning to check out Corporate Benefits' 10,000 Steps program. We'll be hosting the same thing at The Mirage on Tuesday. Looks like it'll be fun -- I already turned on the nifty little pedometer they gave me and have taken 1,829 steps. Guess I have some work to do!

My parents are coming to visit next week. It'll be the first time my dad sees the new house! I'm thinking of having my housewarming in August, now. Only because July is going to be so packed (no pun intended) with moving and visitors that I might still be living out of boxes for the entire month!

There's so much going on with everyone right now. My dad just came home from Hawaii last night, where he got his scuba diving certification. How cool is that?

Liz had her first spine chemo on Wednesday, which she said didn't go too bad. She has her second regular chemo treatment next week, so she'll be in my thoughts. Oddly enough, she sounds wonderful. I had no idea that she was that strong, I am constantly amazed by her. She is 100% my hero. JDM
