Well chickies I lost a pound yesterday. I was hoping after all of the shoveling that I did!  Over two hours!  That was on top of the 1 mile DVD aerobic workout that I did as well. Let me tell you though I was SORE! I felt like I did one million squats!  I was so [...]

Ode to winter

Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening

by Robert Frost (1923)

To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of [...]

It is O’dark in the morn and I am happy to say that I got my workout in. It was a short one today (a 20 minute walking aerobic with hand weights). It felt good to get up and work my muscles out once again. It amazes me how quickly the body gets out of [...]
