Hey there Ladies, With the 2004 BB and Figure season coming to a close, I'm just curious if any of you have thought about what you may be training for in 2005? A first time bb or figure comp, the Nationals, your 20 year high school reunion, your wedding day? I have a few things planned already and the first thing I'm doing is returning to Venice Beach on Memorial Day in May. Training begins right after Turkey Day  How 'bout you? |

Good luck with the training, C.! I was going to do the Oregon Ironman again in May, but we decided to try starting a family instead, so no shows for me for a couple years! Still gonna keep up my training though.  |

xena! starting a family! Wow! That's wonderful! Good luck with that. You won't believe how much your life will change when you have little ones.
As for me, just trying to keep up. Time management seems to be my biggest hurdle but I'm managing. I would love to go see a competition this summer in Houston or Dallas.

We're excited to start our family and of course I'm nervous, but my hubby has two kids from previous so at least I have my "resident expert" who tells me that I'll figure it all out! Oh, and it's nice to meet you! |

I'm happy for you! Thanks so much, C.! We're still just "trying" at this point but having lots of fun w/ that part too of course! But it's SO HARD waiting those 2 weeks of each month wondering if we're pregnant? I know it takes time though, but I'm so impatient LOL! |

I know it takes time though, but I'm so impatient LOL! Have fun trying Xena! My boys are 18 months apart. I was taking the pill when my oldest was concieved and I was using a diaphram when my youngest was concieved. I was the girl that got pregnant when someone in the room sneezed! ;D I wish you and your hubbie lots of luck and tons of fun in your journey! |

Xena, enjoy all of the process - before, during, and after. They change so danged fast. Best wishes for you and the hubbie!
LC, please keep us posted on your progress and the ups and downs. Some of us are still waffling as to whether or not we're gonna take that step and get up on a stage.
As for me...I'm just enjoying the process of getting bigger and training with the spouse. Would like to see a bbing comp this year, in person. Will have to see what's around here in Texas.

I hate to start thinking dieting and prep thoughts right before the holidays! But....the Masters Nationals is still my goal for 2005. Every year I say I'm going to do it and then something happens to get in the way. I'd like to do one here again too as a trial before that one. Maybe the Venice one or Contra Costa. But it all takes such a toll on my health I should just concentrate on one big show. We'll see. I'll be judging more by then too so it's gonna be a busy season for me! On that note, it's time for another piece of chocolate! |

Peggy, hope you go for it. Would be super to see you and cheer you on. Good luck!
