Well, least you think I have not been working on little Madison's blanket, here is my progress in work. :}    I only have 2 1/2 more skeins (will be 10 total when done), so hopefully it will be done by this week end.  You can see how big it is getting, it will be close to crib size by the time I am finished. :}

Also a milestone for me with my exercize.  I have been working out on an elipical machine.  In case you have not used one, IT IS HARD  when you first start.  I could only do 5 min and my legs hurt so bad the next few days, ouchie.  I had even been exercizing for a year at curves when I started that machine.  I follow that machine by 15 min on the treadmill, to bring my heart rate down to a better rate (it still gets to high on that machine)and still work out and then cool down.  Well my goal is to be able to do 30 min on the eliptical machine and then the 15 on the tread,  I started this by the way about 3 weeks ago when I had to give up my curves membership due to a rent increase :{.  It is ok, this is working out well as the machines are a freebie at my apt to use.  Anyway, drum roll...... I am now at 15 min on the eliptical - 1/2 way to my goal. :}  I actually look forward every evening to working out, and I increase my time by 1 min every 3 days.  I exercize 5 to 6 times a week. :}   It's all good. :}
