Fashion Tip Friday ~

Happy Friday the 13th!!! No one walked under a ladder today did they?
Ha! Superstitions...something I am NOT into. No worries here if a black cat were to cross my path.

It's pizza and a movie tonight. It's stay in bed past 5:30 tomorrow.
It's church Sunday morning and then pasta in the afternoon....ahhh yes, the weekend is at our door.

Well, winter finally arrived in northern Illinois yesterday, I forgot what snow means to my foyer....


Why I have asked myself did I choose to wash the floors yesterday? Why?
Silly Mom.

Fashion Tip. (mainly for the unmotivated and myself )

Jeff and I have always been active people.
Except this past year...I've gotten a bit lazy. =/

This is the time of year where we decide it's time for change. Get healthy. Get in shape.
Getting motivated ~ That's the hard part.

The thing is, you just have to DO IT!!!
No workout Video/DVD/blu-ray/podcast (Do I have all of technology covered here? ;)
is going to help you unless you are willing to work hard and be diligent.

Don't make an "on Monday I'll start" plan, because guess what? you won't. Start today. Start Now!
Get off your couch and MOVE. Seriously, finish reading this and then stand up.....


and go for a 10 minute walk. Too cold? That's an excuse. Put on a coat and bundle up. You'll get warm.
Ride a bike, take a jog.....Just do something.

Set a time each day and let nothing stop you.
It takes 21 days to make a habit. After three weeks I guarantee you'll be hooked.

I read once that exercising is addicting...I had to agree.
Once you start, it's almost as if your body craves the workout.

You will feel happier. Less tired. More motivated.
Being active plays such a big role in your mood.


Just for fun.....
