It's that time of year again

You know, that time where we give up chocolate, or wine, or yelling at our kids and we turn into raving lunatics. Or is that just me?

Ok. Whatever.

Last year, I gave up shopping. And that really sucked. I'm not doing THAT again!

So here's what I'm giving up this year: SLOTH.

I'm getting off my butt three times a week and exercising. I'm getting babysitters, or getting up early, or whatever it takes to do it.

My healthy body is a gift that will fade if I don't take care of it. And I really hope to live long enough to be a HUGE pain in the ass to my kids. But, my knees are getting creaky, and even though I eat healthy foods, I am finding I can no longer maintain the same weight without throwing some exercise in there.

So, I am off... to the gym. I hate the gym. I hate exercising in a roomful of sweaty people with mirrors everywhere. But I hate being out of shape even more.
