Gym

i. joined. a. gym.
there are those who will rejoice at this news.
my bro has been trying to get me to do this thing for years.
i went kicking and screaming.
but it is a way-cool one.
so far i've done a SPIN CLASS (ouch...is it over yet?); ran on the treadmill (trying not to fall off...boy, my BALANCE has changed!); faked it on the ELLIPTICAL (ha ha...i'll get 'trained' on that tomorrow); swam in the pool w/ my younguns (w/ my INDIVIDUAL membership i can take my FAMILY each day in the afternoon!!!!! BONUS!); and, yesterday, took a STEP class.

can you say, "IT'S BEEN 9 YEARS SINCE MY LAST STEP CLASS?" oh good grief, gerdie.
there's that BALANCE thing again. i should rephrase...it's not that "i took a step class." it's more like: "i tripped and stumbled thru a step class."

but in the end i was smiling...sweating, but smiling.

so, we're on the road again. and i will try and WORKOUT 4 times a week.
and, greg, the trainer lady that signed me up (and led our RPM class ---aka spin class) is going to give me a free start-up deal about what things to work out on ... on the wt machines.

okay? capiche? whatever. thanks be to God that we could do this right now. i don't know that we really can but my loving hubby wanted me to do this to feel better about all things! yeahoo!

on the homefront, everybody is healthy. too bad we're not wealthy (money's not everything). but we ARE wise. (right?) and i know my kids are growing in wisdom. as are we. (that is from the "healthy, wealthy and wise" saying...sorry...it's a tangent.)

perspective: we are extremely wealthy in the Lord. we have a RISEN SAVIOR! He is the KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS. He is the BEGINNING AND THE END. The Alpha and the Omega. He WINS!

God Bless your day. Seek Him and He will be found! He WANTS YOU! =)
