Hello all… the busier season of my school year is just about to begin. Monday starts the basketball season so I’ll have another batch of young chaps to get to know on a better level for the next few months. The high school and jr. high choir are in concentrated preparation for their Christmas concert on December 17th, and this coming weekend is the Music Educators of Nebraska Conference. This all means that Charista and I will be seeing even less of each other.
On other news fronts, Charista and I joined a gym here in Omaha. Urban Active will be yet another home for us over the next couple years. Why would two beautiful and in-shape people join a gym? I asked myself the same question. I believe that Charista wants to get in even better shape so that she can finally beat me in a race, and I do have good reasons to be working hard. One, to continue to beat my lovely wife in each approaching foot race, and two, to win the “Biggest Loser” competition in which I have entered myself. I need to lose 8% of my weight by Feb. 14… which is 19 pounds. That is the highest number of pounds anyone in the competition needs to lose making me the fattest out of everyone… for now. My goal for Feb. 14th, 150 pounds… well if I can find a way to rig the scales.
Lastly, Omaha had its first snow storm yesterday… feeling like home, threw 8 snow balls.
I love the blog! Matt and I have one too--and I'm not nearly as good as updating it as I would like to be. I'm lucky if I get one post up each month.
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to many more posts! This really is a great way to keep in touch. Thanks!
And snow, already?? We haven't had any here yet and I am just fine with that. I'm not ready for winter.
Good luck with the Biggest Loser competition and the busy season at school.
Love you both!
