Suga - no excuses, girl. Tell yourself that you WILL exercise. When you get home, put on your exercise clothes and do it.

Or, when you get up - put on your workout clothes and get to it. I've been half asleep during some of my workouts

Commit to 10 minutes. Now, you can surely do that! A walk, yoga - SOMETHING!

Maybe pick a goal reward that you have been wanting. If you exercise X number of days, you can Y.

Hi to everyone else. A good and BUSY start to the week. Teachers are coming back and the next 3 days will be training. I got the labs set up today, so I should be all set for the first session in the morning.

Blessings to all!

Laurie

Suga wanting to exercise is the biggest step ,you have taken that step, now finding something that is fun for exercise will help you. Also think why exercise is good for you. Take it slow and even ask your doctor what kind of exercise would be good for you. I love to walk and it is so dry but every time I walk, Jesus has a little flower along the road for me, and I wonder to myself how does it even live much less bloom in this weather. Never the same kind of flower.

I have been told exercise helps reduce the risk of developing type two diabetes, helps your heart, promotes weight loss, promotes brain health just 30 miutes a day and its better if you divide that 30 miutes up during the day for some reason and start out slow .

They are starting the exercise contest and weight contest in the Chicks ready for a Challenge I joined both of them. I like to walk with my friend but i also like to walk with my dog Lee. I like to work outside if it is not to hot and I been cleaning my garden up and the outside , that is planned exercise if you plan it. I have a wood pile ,I move from one place to another that is planned exercise when I do. You can get up and walk around the couch as many times as you want that is a start. Get involved in sports, mowing grass, and believe it or not Housework use's calories, playing with the kids etc....... Just find something you like doing, you can have fun washing a car . You said your volunteering at your children ministry they like to play games, have some fun, get involved burn them calories . There is all kinds of reasons you should exercise but mainly is that you will feel so much better mentally for doing so.

LAURIE ~ where's the pic of your new hair cut? How come I can't seem to find it. I looked in your profile but it wasn't there ... did I miss it somewhere?

BOOTSIE ~ sent up prayers for ANGELS to surround and protect your home, barn, and animals too!

RONNIE ~ glad the doctors are being aggressive for your Dad and things are improving for him a bit; prayers ascending for you and yours at this time ...

HELLO to everyone else and prayers are continuing for you and yours; thanks for you prayers for my DH: put some updates in there for you all (Prayer Warriors thread). He is feeling much better; they put him on aspirin therapy (good idea).

Take good care all ... Rosebud

Hi ALL ~ Feeling better but still sick...work was a battle....I was counting the minutes from 2-3pm then boss walks by me about 2:30 and says "What time we leaving today?"..."I say 3"....he says "Wrong answer"...I say "4"...he says try again...."I say 4 (again)" he says "fine" but not happily....he was lucky he got the day out of me and my sick brother in law. I then had to find my 10 guys scattered through the building and give them the joyus news. Wouldn't be so bad if it was 102....but the heat justs zaps ya!

Anyway that's all I got for today...

I will be back and visit for real sometime soon...I promise!

I did not go to bed till my husband got up and then slept to 8:30 so afraid coyote's would come back and would not get there in time but they did not come back. Yeah! Was afraid they would catch on that this old girl just had a big mouth and just a stick in her hand and get after me!

Today is first day of dove season so figured that might scare them back into the hills and not have to worry about them attacking the goats and dogs. But don't hear any shooting outside, hmmmm.....hunters probably can't afford the license this year to hunt and the cost of bullets is high, especially if they miss.

Gary ~ Still praying for your healing. I also pray that God will give you the strength to do what you have to do as well. Are you close to those fires?
Praying for rain for y'all.

Bootsie & Rosebud ~ I prayed the same thing for you Bootsie. I thank God the coyotes have not returned. Still praying for that rain y'all need.

Busy day ahead of us. So I won't linger. Just wanted to drop in and say Hi to everybody and I'm still here.

Hope everyone has a blessed Tuesday. Continued prayers for all of you.

Haircut pic is below. I took it off the thread after I closed the poll. But for you guys, I don't mind a re-post

Gary hope you are feeling better soon!

Bootsie - good idea joining the contest. I did the BL contest 3 times during my journey - it really did help!

Whew - glad today is done! Work was insanely busy (it always is the first day that teachers come back). I trained teachers from 8-5 and it really zapped me. I hardly have a voice left.

Tomorrow is a day of training secretaries. I think I'm going to bed early tonight

Prayers continuing for all!
New asymmetrical hair

Laurie ~ Love the haircut. Wish I could wear mine like that, but it just isn't the right type. Hope you get rested up for tomorrow. And have a good day.

Feeling better but not groovy today....I will leave that over in our Prayer Warrior section....

SCOUGAR ~ Love the new do Glad work has got you hoppin!

TRISH ~ I am about 100 miles south of the fires. Thank you for the wishes on my health...it's working!

BOOTSIE ~I live in a tract of homes with some country...you would laugh at the "country" part ...but we have coyotes around and they sure seem to be getting more and more brave each year. Plenty of cats and small dogs lost over the years here....a couple of ours...no more kitty's for us

SUGA ~ RONNI ~ KELLI ~ BARGOO ~ Prayers over in Warriors.

NEW KIDS ~Keep coming back!!!!!!

Outta here for now but tomorrow I will show you a surprise from my job...if I can get a good picture! I haven't told you about it because it is something very unusual for a car dealership or any business to say the least

HEY LAURIE ~ I really like it and the color too. It suits your kind of hair as well ... thanks for sharing the pic with us as I missed it in the other thread.

We have been having a lot of issues to deal with lately; but GOD sent an Angel to help us tonight. We sure needed help after being put in an unexpected bind by someone else. May GOD bless all strangers who help those who have no-one else to help them ...

Ate well today; stayed on plan, and got lots of walking in. I am keepin' on, keepin' on ... no matter what life tries to throw my way. May GOD give us some inspiration and wisdom to help us in our journey to good health!

Take good care and remember that ^PRAYERS^ are ascending for you and yours ... always!!! ROSEBUD

Time to wrap August up and move on to September, Encouragers!
