A milestone... today I made it to 10 minutes on the elliptical machine.

DON’T LAUGH!! When I started on it a month ago, after 30 seconds I thought I was going to die. Yah, I know, some of you out there are thinking, ‘Pathetic!’

Crazy weather again. November 9th, and my lilac bushes are leafing out. Poor things think it’s spring because it’s been so warm. It’s going to be up in the 60s today, with the normal high in the lower 40s.

On the bright side, I’ve got 6 orchids and an amaryllis that are getting ready to bloom.
