To the End and a Beginning

Cheers!
  We are at the end of 2011.  It marks the end of some things and the beginning of others.  For myself, this was my last complete year attending Leeward Community College.  I have spent the last three years working on my AA and at the end of this month, I will have completed my requirements.  I plan on taking one more class, however.  I don't need it to graduate but it will help my painting skills. I am very thankful that I have such a wonderful art professor who encourages me to go further with my art
  As my college life draws to an end, I have noticed something that is a little disheartening.  Over the last three years, I have gained some weight.  Not a lot but enough that I wouldn't consider myself as fit as I once was prior to attending school. So, my goal is to start working out.  I don't plan on just jumping into the gym and working for hours on end for unreasonable goals.  That is how a lot of people burn out.  So, I plan on starting small.  Starting next week, I will work out at least 30 minutes a day.  Doesn't sound like much but going from nothing to 30 minutes is a start.  Then, I'll add 5-10 minutes a week.  I admit, I am inspired by a fellow military spouse named Lindsey Roeske.  She has been working out and watching her progress makes me want to become a healthier person.

  1. My youngest birth child, Kimmie in Mpls, MN decided to have a personal trainer and learn some workout techniques. She loves it. She is firm, fit and has more energy than ever. She joined the Gym near her; complete with whirlpool for her reward for working out! You might enjoy it. Kimmie now has some workout things in her apartment. She is doing very well. Love you!!
