 So, I'm a Middle-Aged Exercise Blogger who hasn't exercised in, as my kids say,  'five-ever' - which assumedly, is a LOT longer than 'for-ever'.  And I haven't (couldn't?) blog in 'six-ever'!  But I'm still very much middle aged!  So there's that!

Speaking of age.  I had the opportunity to travel with my brother, mother, her three sisters and their husbands this summer.  I feel a LOT younger!  Taking a moment to bend Einstein's Theory of Relativity:  When I'm with my kids and their friends, I'm old.  They think old is "like 30".   When I'm with my mother, aunts and uncles, well, I'm about 17.  It's terrific!  

Remember the movie "Footloose"?  (If you can't, you may want to just move along!)  Remember how awesome Kevin Bacon was because he wanted to dance!  And his dancing was so cool and cutting edge!?!  Remember the girl he liked, Ariel?  (I wikipedia-ed her name...it's not like I remember the movie that well!)  Mostly, remember how OLD her parents were!!!!!  Hello!  Wake up call!  They were younger than I am now!  And yet, I still relate to Kevin because he brings me back to my teen years god love him!

Hey, so here's another of my Theories of Relativity:  The numbers on the Scale!   I see a new, bigger, higher, icky number it scares the shit out of me and ruins my day.  BUT that same number coming back down the scale is like my new best friend!

See - it's all relative!  Thank you to Albert Einstein for keeping it all in perspective!

Any Hoo!  Joined a new gym on Tuesday and I've been to a toning/weight/cardio type class every day since.  That's three whole days in a row for those of you who don't know what day it is.  On Thursday I could barely hold the blow dryer over my head to dry my hair because my arms were so shaky from the workouts!  Holy crap I'm weak!

And, even though my hair is kinda fuzzy ... something I have in common with ol' Al ... I'm really happy to be back to exercising regularly  Oh sure, it's only been three days but that's three more days than I did in April, May, June and July!    

I'll keep you posted!  

Make it a great day my friends!
