New T-Shirts and a Challenge

Today I went to Sandi's and we made these t-shirts. The "Three Crosses" is for the Pastor.
I bought the t-shirts at Walmart for $4.00 a piece.

This t-shirt is for JP, his birthday is this month. So, yayyyyyy, this will be his birthday present. Along with a free steak at BJ Clancy's and maybe breakfast in the morning. Our BIG splurge!!!

This is my t-shirt. "Keep Calm - God's Got It" just a little reminder for us all!!! God knows, and see's everything that is going on in this world.......not to fear!!!

This one is for Mary, the Pastor's wife.

A word about the challenges: Biz is having a challenge this month. She'll be doing 100 miles, in either swimming, running, walking, riding. My challenge for May will be:
100 + miles riding my stationary bike
Walking Kylie around the block every day this month (she will be a happy doggie camper.)
One smoothie every day for May.
Hopefully I can lose a few pounds this month.
My goal; to lose 10 pounds by September.
Okay, here we goooooooooooo!!!

You all have a good day and I hope you didn't get snowed under. Keep looking up for your redemption draweth nigh. Cheers ~ Louise

100 Mile Challenge!!!

Well as you can see, I did 100 miles on my stationary bike this month. Starting at 2,506.1 and ending at 2,606.1. My challenge started August 4th and finished yesterday, August 29th......it took 26 days to reach  my goal of 100 miles. Doing 5 miles a day, sometimes 3 miles or 4 miles and a couple of 6 mile journeys.

The challenge was initiated by www.mybizzykitchen.com a blog I like to visit everyday to see what she has cooked up for the day. Biz is from the Chicago area. She tells alot about her life, what she is doing, how she is handeling her diabetis, what she is cooking, how many calories etc., how she is exercising, how far she is running, what she is reading, watching and where she goes out to eat and what she makes with those doggie bags she brings home. Her husband even answers questions on her blog.....he is a real hoot, you will find yourself laughing out loud many times while reading her blog.

There were many others that took the challenge also, Biz has put their names in a bowl (or whatever she is using). At the end of this month one person will be the winner of 2 jars of salsa and 2 jars of grilled cherry salsa that Biz made and a case of Chobani Greek Yogurt from Chobani. I will let you know who won.

Well, I am closing here for now, need to get dinner ready for JP and get some more bike riding in. It seems my blood sugars are usually down in the morning when I ride my bike in the evening..........on to another 100 miles for September.

The Green Bay Packers won tonight.....YAY!!! Go Pack!!! Mitt Romney spoke tonight along with Clint Eastwood and Marco Rubio........what a speaker, he will go far in Politics....maybe President someday??? I sure hope Romney wins the Presidential Race.....down to earth and much easier to look at!!
You all have a great day and keep looking up for your redemption is drawing nigh. Cheers ~ Louise
