Ground hog says only 6 more weeks of winter

Got to love that hairy creature. I just hope he is right. I need to see the grass. I need to hear the birds singing. I need to get my dog out for a walk. He has cabin fever as bad as I do. 

I try to workout in the winter but I must say that I fall short of a great workout minus the sunshine and fresh air. I put on my ipod and leashed up the dog and went for a walk on Sunday. Not the same thing when you have to go through 18 inches of snow. I am sure it is a workout but not one that I really enjoy.

I should go to the pool and go for a swim but I hate dealing with a wet bathing suit and wet hair when it is freezing out.

OK, enough with the excuses. I am the queen of them after all. To put my fanny in motion, I hired a personal trainer to jumpstart my efforts. She is a walking example of what a well-toned body should look like. I am sure that she is going to kick my butt but that is what I need right now.

I have let too many things get in the way of a great workout and it is time to get back on track. I turn 50 in July and I want to be the best I have ever been. I want to set the tone for what the rest of my life will be like by then. I never want to use a walker and I don’t want to be one of those people that eat pills to stay healthy.

Fabulous and 50 is what I want. The time is now to get back on track and make it happen.
