After a weekend off from workouts, I was ready to hit the gym yesterday. To be honest, my legs were still sore from Friday’s workout [say what?!] but I knew I was ready to get them moving again. It was a little rough, but damn, it felt good. The sunburn, however, is still not my friend and still looking a little too purple for my liking. Lesson. Learned. Seriously.
Well, it hasn’t been too long since my last link love, but there were some really, especially wonderful posts over the past week that I’ve been excited to share with you. Enjoy!

Thanks for including me! I loved Crazy Cotter’s post that you included. Even though it’s hot as heck down here in Houston, sometimes I need to get outside and walk with little Lucy to just disconnect and clear my head. 🙂
Of course! Sometimes the fresh air is just what we need.. even if it is super hot.
I was too busy working and working out to read any blogs….
Hope you can catch up now!
