Gym, Sweet Gym

This is where I spend my afternoons on campus. Twice a week I go to the Macon State College Wellness Center between classes, and I work out as hard as I can – I burn fat, I release energy, and I cut stress. I sweat…I mean glisten. I gladly enter my hard-earned data on DailyMile [...]

Ouch.

Click the picture for the background story that led to 15 stitches on my face. No fun…but hubby is taking great care of me. It’s been a long, sore, sleepy weekend. Nothing pretty about it.

Letter to the EPA Staff

Do your part in letting the Environmental Protection Agency know that pollution is endangering our health and climate. You can send a letter much like the one below, in which I added some of my own points, signed, and sent today. Act soon – time is running out on this campaign!
