I am MSN illiterate, LOL! Actually no, I moderate on another forum and have had many many negative experiences on msn with members from there bombarding me with complaints and questions if they see me signed in, so I got rid of it.

I also won't allow my 14yo son on it, so not having installed helps him resist the urge.

I apparently miss out on a whole world of communication without it, though!

I'm glad you and your dad will be there to motivate each other, but I agree about getting home to your own space. And I found that getting motivated to exercise has been easier this time - where I've already lost some weight and can already see the difference - than it's been in other times I've tried to increase my physical activity. In fact, the tables have turned in my house, I now exercise MORE than my DH and not only that, where he used to have to force to to walk or bike-ride, I now harrass him, and if he doesn't go, I go without him. Lol!

And I really admire your resolve to cook when you get home. I think that will be the best thing for you. I am still really lazy in that respect. Though I am trying to avoid fast food (haven't always been successful), because if I can only eat so much, I want it to be good stuff, IYKWIM. Tasty and fresh and satisfying. But cooking after a whole day of meetings and focus groups and writing reports and training is beyond me these days unfortunately.

I'm glad that I withdrew from uni too this semester, because between work and exercise and the band, I have my hands full. Once things settle, I think uni can come back into the mix. But for now (esp work) life is really full on.

5 days to go for you before bandland!
