other than some fairly impressive waves (the gulf came all the way up to our beach access walkway) and a stronger-than-normal breeze, gustav didn’t touch us. we stayed under tropical storm watch all weekend but all we got was clouds – no rain, no lightening, no severe wind. it really made for a nice labor day weekend. my only regret is that we were going to get out and ‘yak saturday afternoon while the water was still nice and calm but the waves started earlier than we expected. friday and saturday nights we went out to our favorite hangout and hungout till 2 or 3 in the mornings. yesterday, i started the new month by getting back in the gym. i did all weights, no cardio but then we got changed and walked down to our favorite shopping plaza and walked around so that was sort of like light cardio, right? i think my plan right now is to try to do weights three times a week and cardio twice. today will be some sort of cardio day. we’ll see how things work out.
