Topic: new silly wow
The other night DH and I were talking and somehow we got on the subject of headstands.   I had not done one since I was in my early 20s.  Well, he encouraged me to try one.  Don't you know I ended up doing one!  I actually got up and stayed up for a good bit of time.  No wall support or anything, just a honest good old headstand.  I was surprised that I had gotten my balance back to that point and that I was light enough to not hurt myself.  Then I tried other things.  I pumped out 8 push ups.  Not the girly ones on your knees but REAL push ups.  I love the surprises that come along with weight loss and exercise.  I feel like a kid again at  nearly 52 yrs old.  What a blessing. 

Merry Christmas to the rest of you kids out there!

Well Tom, it was you who got me going to the gym.  I was so inspired when you first started going and had the trainer etc,  But, I was also embarrassed that I was just doing a bit of walking and a few other things.  I knew I was not doing what I should be doing.  If good ole Tom was doing this, I could too. Now it is a yr later and I can't believe how much things have changed.  Heck, I did a head stand the other night and stayed up for quite a bit.  How is that for getting my balance back.  I was in the bedroom with hubby and he said I should try it.  I hadn't done one since I was about hmmm in my early 20s.  So it took me a minute or two to get the hang of it but up I went!  No wall support or anything either!  It was fun.  And weird.  constant surprises now a days.
