Happy Birthday, to me

I recently celebrated my 41st birthday.  This birthday was celebrated with less fan fare than my family and friends are used to.  I think my melancholy spirit was due to the fact that I had taken a great summer vacation, but mostly because I was happy to be alive and well.

I was blessed to be treated with flowers and cards from co-workers at the office, a burger by my sister, a day trip with my bestie, and than a weekend treat of a mom-hosted gathering at Chateau Robinson with food, friends, and football!  

Here's to another happy and healthy year!

Boot camp!

As per usual, I get in fitness slumps.  I'm so annoyed with myself, but the truth of the matter is, I really dislike working out, but I know it is an absolute necessity that I do and coupled with proper eating, I lose weight.  While yes, I am working on bringing my sexier back, but dang!!!!  If only it were easier.  Thankfully, I don't have to work out because of high cholesterol or because I am pre-diabetic.  I know once I begin my workout, I always feel better afterwards. 

This week, I begin boot camp and I know this will help jump start my renewed fitness goals.  I will have the support I know I need and strong coaches to get the best out of me.  Boot camp will also add to my zumba classes and I need to 'speed' train for my October 17th 1/2 marathon!  Whew!!  I've got a lot of work ahead of me!!
