Exercising for the Elderly ;)

Yes, I know I need to!!

I'm simply too busy to find the time to exercise!! I want to feel strong and run free, but my body is beginning to feel like it's 20 years older than it actually is. :( So, I've resolved to find an accountability partner and start moving!!

I know these first few days will not be easy, but I'm hoping that early mornings will find me walking outside with the Lord and the beautiful sunrise!! Nothing beats spending time with Him first thing in the morning. I'm looking forward to it!! Problem is, I'm not a very good morning person. I've always wanted to be, but neither was my momma!! :) My precious hubby rises with the roosters and always has. Lucky him! Whatever the case, my 7am is going to turn into 6am and those tired, old legs (Lord willing) are going feel the shock of early morning movement!! :)

And, to whoever will join me, $1 goes to each day that I don't do it!! (You know this can add up!)

With that kind of commitment, I'm too broke not to exercise!!! LOL!!

I'm remembering the kid's BQ verse, "Bodily exercise profiteth little, but godliness is profitable unto all things.." (Sorry, I'm not good w/references) But it did say that bodily exercise does profit, even if it is a little :)

Happy Mother's Day!!!



When I think of perfection in Mothering, my precious momma comes to mind!! I am so blessed by her love, compassion, generosity, patience and true meekness!! She's a true giver, not just to her family, but to everyone! She never meets a stranger.






If I were to sum up her lifestyle, it would be in this one sentence:






She shows the love of God in a practical way every day of her life!






I love you, Momma!!!
