There's Still Time to Join

The 12-week Fitness for the Rest of Us Challenge!

Compete against YOURSELF in measures of fitness (strength, stamina, flexibility). Watch your progress week by week, and enjoy the support and friendship of other less-than-perfect exercisers along the way.

This challenge is open to everyone, regardless of fitness level. (However, if you have never exercised before, please consult a doctor first) There is no fee or obligation to join - it's totally free, and run by me.

For those who complete the 12 week challenge, there will be a "Most Improved" prize at the end!

This week is "Intake Week" - you do an initial measure to the tests, and report that information to me. This is also the week to set any custom goals you have. So head over to the Fitness4Us challenge site now!

My BOGO FREE earrings

I made these lovely stud earrings as the FREE "get one" part of the PDX ETSY sale this weekend. I think they're lovely...

But since I don't have that many of the pressed-glass flowers, I decided I'd better make another version, so I came up with these...

Here's to a successful BOGO sale! :-)

Darn it, I want my first etsy sale!

And I want it so bad....I'm offering FREE SHIPPING to my first buyer!

Come on...I know there's plenty of interest in my stuff. Somebody HAS to be tempted by this!
