Last week I participated in a Fitfluential Twitter Chat that was sponsored by Reebok (#LiveWithFire) and featured Chris Powell (host of Extreme Weightloss) and his wife Heidi Powell as co-hosts. It was a great chat and so much fun to be able to tweet with them!

I was slightly annoyed with the new Gmail inbox, but after a few days I got used to it. I didn’t mind having my junk emails sorted to the “Promotions” tab, and it was pretty cool having all my Facebook update emails sorted to the “Social” tab.

When we first got Tiger Lilly a year and a half ago, we took turns walking her in the mornings. Gradually, though, I became the morning dog walker, and now I like it that way.
