I went to my workout yesterday and felt much better, plus the people in class were sympathetic to my loss of a dear pet. Today, I'll take a nice, long walk with a friend. I'm always inspired after a good walk.

That way, it's 'me' time where I can jump and sweat and clean my brain-slate for the day ahead. It would be the best time to write, but alas, I have a job that demands I go in order to get paid.

When I do circuit class or kettlebells I don't think of it as working out, I think of preparing for the Zombie Apocalypse and that helps motivate me.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18226974782422398270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8114539.post-88095947282843173992011-04-06T08:55:41.921-07:002011-04-06T08:55:41.921-07:00*sigh* I used to exercise daily.
