Had good exercise last night. I really like exercising in front of the mirror, but the mirrors at my gym are all in the back in the mens heavy lifting area. I went back there anyway and used what I think is called the Smith machine. I used it for other purposes, like assisted squats, push-ups, reverse lunges, and well, I did lift the weights, too. Hehe. I like that my trainer shows me how to do similar moves using different equipment and things. I had a 2lb gain, but I forgive myself...

I thinki I have been having the baby blues. I want to to see my new grandaughter so much and was so sad to have to leave her. It's not fair that she lives so far away. My daughter and her husband never make me feel very welcome, so I was too nervous to go back down there this weekend. On that note, and also because of the weather and the holiday, I have been severly depressed this week. I call it " the gloom". It was also awful going back to work after a week off and I was really ha...
