I’ve been slacking on the blog

Wow!  I didn’t realize that it’s been a couple of weeks since I posted my workouts.  Above is a photo that Rick Spansel just recently sent me from my guest posing routine at the Capital of Texas Roundup.  I’ve been getting in all of my workouts and on the week Thanksgiving I even threw in a couple of extra workouts to keep the metabolism stoked in order to counteract the extra calories I consumed.   I survived Thanksgiving and mom’s awesome apple pie with only a couple of extra pounds on me.  That’s acceptable for this time of year!  My workouts have been going pretty well.  I’m going to just recap the highlights of the last two weeks and then give my whole leg workout that I did today.  Today I finally got to workout with Tricia again.  I think it’s been about 6 or 7 weeks since we worked out together.  I didn’t go nearly as heavy, but the pace was much faster and my legs are feeling it right now.  I’m sure they’ll be nice a sore tomorrow!
