I have enjoyed watching the Olympics and and I love hearing the stories from you guys in Vancouver! I wish I could be an athlete at that level! Can you imagine?

Like I said I dont have much to say. I guess I will keep you posted if anything exciting comes along.

Book Club

I got invited to join a ladies book group and I am very excited! When I was coaching for TEAM in Training I met one of the campaign managers, Maggie. Maggie is calm, cool and collective and I like her a lot :) As one of her goals for 2010 she decided to start a book club with a small group of friends. Her sister has been part of a book club for 10 years and now she wanted to have that close knit group of reading women as well! So we met for the first time at a cute coffee shop over the weekend to decide on schedules, places and of course, books! I was nervous because a) this was out of my comfort zone 2) I would be forced to actually read at least 1 book a month 3) I only knew one person and don't know her very well. It was a great first meeting and I am really excited. I like all the ladies and they are all beautiful, smart and athletic! I have to pick a book today (paperback because it is cheaper) because I am the second person to host and I have know idea what to choose. I was originally going to pick Elizabeth Gilbert's new book, Committed, because I am reading it anyway but it is still hardback. Any ideas?-- Laurie I know you could give me a couple of suggestions!

I just had Fage Greek yogurt with chocolate granola in it for breakfast and it was yummy! I have been trying different Greek yogurts and this one is my favorite. The only thing I dont like are that the portion sizes are huge! My tummy has trouble with that much yogurt! hahaha

Ok I better get back to work. Have fun!
