Hi, guys!
I’m happy to report that I am feeling pretty darn good on the fitness front! I had some really awesome workouts over the past two weeks, and, for the most part, I feel like my old self again. And I totally took advantage of every opportunity to get my butt in gear since Mal is back to school this week, and I won’t have the same freedom to work out whenever I want. Things are changing around here!
