• Goood morning friends.  Sorry have not written as often as I should.  Life just gets busy at times.  As I mentioned before I FINALLY joined a gym and with my bonus this year I decided to make it about me and hired a personal trainer.  Some thought I was crazy spending that kind of money but it's been the best gift I have ever purchased.  I actually should say we purchased cause my husband decided to do it with me.  It has been awesome.  I have never worked so hard.  I have Ryan who encourages me and does not let me quit.  He let's me moan and groan and whine but continues to push me and then praises me when I push through.  I have lost 8.5 pounds in 3.5 weeks, but the greatest amazing thing to watch is the body shape.  I have lost 2 inches on waist one on the hips 1/2 inch on calves and on and on.  It is amazing!!!  My clothes fit different!  I am not shopping again until I have completed my time with Ryan.  I know I will continue my work outs after my time with Ryan is up.  Ryan has also taught me so much about nutrition.  I read labels, I ask resturants for their nutrion guides.  It's crazy.  Never thought I would do this.  But honestly I am loving it.  I have another month an half with Ryan, I can't wait.  I just might keep him!    Maybe I will post before and after pics.  Oh my gawd do I dare????

  Saturday is my birthday.  I have had along with the excitment of working out 5 days a week, a sadness to be getting older.    Iknow, I know, crazy!!  I am going to be 58.  I had to have a little skin "cancer" removed from the back of my left arm.  Liquid nitrogen does not feel good when it is sprayed on your arm by this gizmo that looks like a bunson burner!   But that was dealt with.  Anyways I always get a little sad around my birthday, this year is no different. I am just pushing through it!    I am taking a three day weekend to just do nothing.  Yeah!!!  My husband is taking the time off work too!  To hang out with me.  He is so wonderful!!!!

  Well I got to get ready for work.  Going to be late.  Love ya all!!!
