Changes

Just wanted to update everyone on my 2009 resolution to become healthier. I have been doing Chalean Extreme now for 5 1/2 weeks. I LOVE it!!! That is weird for me to say... love working out??? I love getting up and doing my weight training first thing each morning. I love my clothes fitting better and feeling better about myself. I love that I'm seeing my body change while only doing cardio twice a week! I still hate the cardio, but oh well. I have never done weight training before and I'm finding this is how to change your body. It has become a part of my routine now. I'm happy to show my kids a healthier way to live. And I want to tell everyone that this is doable. If I can do it, you can too. I hope you won't recognize me in a another 6 1/2 weeks!

Mid 60's in Feb

There's nothing like enjoying an afternoon out side in February!

Lost

One of the things I was looking forward to in 2009 was the new season of ABC's Lost. It's one of the few shows to premier in January. Last season was a bit of a letdown. Too many loose ends and moving between the U.S. and the island. However, the cliffhanger last season was a good one. The first 2 episodes this season left me a bit bored. Even more loose ends and switching now between the U.S., the island and time travel. I did enjoy the episode this week however. I'm ready for the gang to just go back. Enough of the misery in the real world. My favorite characters are Charlie and Desmond. You don't see much of them these days. I have to watch alone as my husband is trying to catch up. He has been watching the episodes online, starting with season one. He is finally in season 3, but who knows if he'll catch up before this season is over. His favorite part so far is when Rose knew that her husband was still alive even though no one knew about the back of the plane survivors. She mentions that there is a fine line between faith and denial. Isn't that so true? The world makes us doubt so much of our faith and can cause us to question if we are just in denial. I am thankful for God's promises in His word and for those who live out their faith even when others may think they are just in denial.
