Old habits die hard

I suppose this is quite true. It's funny how a change of scenery motivated me temporarily to become more active. I walked like crazy and really pushed myself when I was on vacation. I get back home and fall right back into the habit of going from my chair in my computer room, to the couch, to the chair in my studio. It's no one's fault but my own, I know. I just want you to know that you aren't alone in your bad habits. It's like we are our own enablers.

Well, the new fitness center near my house will be opening in January and I am hoping it will have some programs that an overweight, sassy Baby Boomer like me can handle. I know I won't be comfortable in a room full of hotties that want to stay fit. I just want to stay motivated and build my endurance and my flexibility. I know that I'll never be able to put my heels around my head, like I did when I was a kid, but I know I can do better than I do now.

Today's plan is to stand outside and watch my hubby do yard maintenance. That usually means running back and forth and getting tools and such for him, so at least I'll get some fresh air and a bit of motion. Well, I'd better go start the coffee, he'll be back soon with his goodies from Home Depot.

Enjoy your day and stay healthy!
