Second Daily “Selfie” – I am pretty proud of these.  These are the first images I have tried using filters on.  Also, they are the first pictures that actually show off the work I have been putting in in the gym.

Daily “Selfie” – It is starting to get cold down in the Heavy Hammer Gym.  I have on a full-zip, Show Choir sweatshirt from my senior year of high school, 2004.  Also pictured are my new WITCC sweatpants that I won at our faculty Christmas party.  They are very comfy and warm, but too long.  I have to roll up the bottoms a good 3-4 inches in order to function in them.
