garden looks nice!

Oh no, I'd never disappear on you!!
It's been so nice here the last few days that I've been outside in my pond.
Yesterday I spent 6 hours in the garden getting it ready and planting all my veggies. This way I'll always have fresh salad at my fingertips.
Thursday if it's nice, I plan on draining and cleaning the pond and getting it all ready. It's an all day/night job but someone has to do it!!
This is my passion away from work

Other than that, workouts are still going great!! I had my meeting Sunday(I'll email you about that) & also had my BF tested again.
It was suggested to me that I take a week off. Not sure if I can do that.
Maybe a day or 2 but 7. That scares me.
I'm also looking for new workouts to try so if "anyone" wants to throw some at me...please do!! I want a change & a challenge.

Thanks for thinking about me thandie. You're a gem!!

I love your garden, Mommalu!

My email was returned, but I resend it with my new email.

That is a serious garden! When i think of garden i think of a few rows of green beans and maybe some watermelon lol. This is really cool.

Thank you all for the nice comments. Yesterday I was actually off and was able to drain, clean & refill the pond(5000 gallons) I'm paying for it today.

I also wanted to share a personal triumph I had at the gym yesterday.
I was able to do 3 sets of dips for 5 reps each time. 2 months ago I could not do one. It brought the biggest smile to my face

So yesterday I attended my first Natural Body Building/Fitness show and all I can say is WOW!!
The show started at 5pm and was "SOLD OUT" so we stuck around till 7pm and finally was able to get in (as people were leaving) to see some of the show. What an experience.

I've also been doing good. Workouts are still going really strong. Yesterday, The club manager & I went to another location to workout before we hit the show. It was great because she showed me many new moves that I would not have even thought to do.
I am getting tighter in all the right areas and was down 2 pounds in 2 weeks. My jeans are also really loose on me(so I know it's working)
Today after work...I'm going Horseback riding. Should be allot of fun.

So today I had a personal best on the leg press machine. I pushed 300# for 4 reps. Then not knowing that the sled is 118 # to start with. So~ I think that makes it 418# right?
I also squatted 115# for 6 reps(that was tough)

Hope everyone is doing well.

That's awesome, Mommalu!
The sled is 118#? I always wanted to know exactly, but I heard 45# and 60#.
I'd really love to know in order to determine how much I'm pushing.

Good job, regardless!!!!!!!
