Download Day – Filled With Wonder
I know, I know….I didn’t do a download last week. Some weeks are just like that. But it’s back today and I have had requests this week for some Christmas downloads for our holiday frame (click here for more info about our holiday frame idea). If you’re like me, you want to get those Christmas decorations up! If you’re like Jason, you are determined to wait till after Thanksgiving to make sure it gets some attention, too. I believe that Thanksgiving and Christmas share the same purpose – being grateful, giving to others, etc.
I’m Grateful For…
Jason and I love to go to Broadway shows. When we lived in Connecticut we were just outside of New York City and would head into Manhattan on a regular basis to check out the new plays and shows.

I didn’t want to have to buy anything, so your download fit my budget perfectly! I even found a frame that I’ve never used (wedding present) that was perfect. I was just so proud of my my (your!) free creation that I thought you should know your work is being put to good use!
Thanks aga
Ahhh…Parenthood
One of my favorite things about the new iPhone 3G is the fact that you have an instant video camera at your fingertips. Then, to make it even better, you can now text video and photos. Before I upgraded my phone I analyzed the features and really didn’t think that I would use or care about these particular ones very much.
I was wrong. I take and text videos all the time. As a matter of fact, just tonight
The Mantra
Jim served as a Marine. Hence, the military-style workouts he concocts. I find myself just running (ok, sort of jogging) between exercises each day without paying a lot of attention to what I’m supposed to do next. Following blindly, is more like it. It’s hard enough to do the workout much less have to remember all kinds of things along the way. This is the beauty of having a trainer, though. They are supposed to remember for you…even when you have a
