No pics and Tai Chi

Unfortunately, Heather, I don't have any new pictures to share yet. We've taken some, but they're on B's computer. I have to wait for him to put them on a CD or email them to me. Mostly the new pictures we have are of the flowers in bloom around here. We noticed on our walks all the pretty little yellow, blue and orange flowers. Probably just weeds, but they're all over the place, and there are a lot of cactus plants with pretty fuscia blooms around here, too. Anyway, I'll see if I can get some of those pictures up soon. Maybe I can lure you guys out here. Tell CH how much I love it here so far. It's sunny every day!

B's weather station came yesterday and he got it somewhat set up with the various sensors outside, but so far it's not working right. It's supposed to automatically sync with the national atomic clock or whatever, and it looks like it's trying to, but it keeps coming up with the wrong time and/or date. The readings we're getting from outside don't agree with what weather.com says either, and sometimes by a lot. Don't know what's up with that.

I recently got a DVD on Tai Chi and have been using it most days, sometimes with B. It's an introduction to Tai Chi so it only has a few basic poses, but I like it so far. I've been using it to warm up before I get on the treadmill or the Total Gym. I may see if I can find another DVD that's a little more indepth so I can learn some more poses. It's supposed to be good for your health and I feel like my health isn't going to get any better on its own, plus I just want to feel better than I generally do, so I'm hoping this will help. Can't hurt, right?

My grandparents lived in New Mexico for I think about 25 years, and they always said the desert was pretty when things were blooming. :)
