Hope everyone had a great weekend, all was well here except for a few minor hiccups. Ate too much! Don’t you hate it when that happens? I was peeved, not the other “p” word. I know what you were thinking! I also hate it when I stock up with delicious treats "for the grandkids." Who am I kidding!
Anyhow, I did get up this morning and before coffee, mind you, I did my pilates workout. Now it’s been a a few months since I’ve worked out and oh boy, I’m paying for it dearly. I’m doing that number with my jeans. You know the one, back side flat down on the bead, pull up and yank, then try to get them zipped! It’s not a pretty. Anyhow, back to my early morning surprise to myself. I worked out. It’s a pretty good 20 minute work out that I have cut down to 10. I just fast forward when Mary Windsor is talking. It’s doable. I tell you it works. I can’t say this morning that you can tell by looking at me today, but it has worked in the past.
Okay, I’ve decided to start pilates again. Who knew? Who knew I’d wake up with energy this morning and work out before coffee! Oh my goodness, not me! I’m almost euphoric.
Well, I have some little photographs that I'll share. First one, you are not going to believe this. We were driving down the road and saw this! Of course, Mr. Notes knows I have my camera in my lap and also knows he has to stop immediately when I yell. Of course he's full of joy when that happens as he is traveling at neck breaking speed.
Anyhow, check these guys out!
Now, tell me that is not worth a yell and a neck breaking stop?
Not one - two yells-
Guess who?
I've always been crazy about taking pictures.
It's almost intoxicating.
I mean, not like a couple of glasses of wine or anything like that.
Just nirvanic, like a spa experience.
I'm not at all comfortable with those big fancy cameras.
Point and shoot works for me!
Okay, here's another shot for you.
Tablescape for one~
set and ready for his breakfast.
Not.
Hey, did you know there's an art to wearing high heels?
I mean, really?
Yes, I read it in a book.
Also read that they are essential in every lady's arsenal! That cracks me up.
I don't even wear them much anymore.
Maybe for church and that's for one hour - with gel pads.
Too many problems to wear them anymore. like standing, walking, sitting...
Anyhow, to learn the art of walking in heels it takes practice, so I read.
Get this- I read...
The best place to go walking is at the grocery store,
miles of isles to gain confidence and balance.
Sounds like a death trap to me!
Don't know why I gave y'all that information.
Yes, still here, it's that second cuppa that's got me going!

See this little guy?
Our first born grandson is going to be 16 on the 28th!!
More about him on his birthday.
You know,
I'm still getting use to the fact he'll be 16!
I should have freezed dried him when I could have-
Isn't he cute?
Well, I think I'll show y'all a few pictures from our trip to Savannah,
no worries, not today.
Well, think I"d better call it quits for now!
Have a great week~





Good for you getting a workout in while I am sitting here doing nothing:) Our Grandkids are growing up and that makes me SAD:( Time goes by way too fast! That's why we have to enjoy each moment! Have a blessed day dear Nancy, HUGS!
ReplyDeleteOh I need to get back to working out too! YUK! Someone asked me recently if I carried my camera everywhere I went and no I don't! But only because I would never get anything else done but picture taking! LOL! Love the sweet little pic of your grandson when he was younger! Time flies in such a hurry and waits on no one! Have a great week. Hugs and blessings, Cindy
ReplyDeleteGood morning Nancy
ReplyDeleteGood for you! I too have started the exercise thing... while we have been in Arizona I have been going to the gym 3 times a week. Not sure what happened to me the past 5 years but all motivation left the building! There are two exercise rooms in the Park we are at so not really any good reason not too. ; )
Your Grandson is so cute! We have twin Grandsons that turn 15 in April so I know what you mean... they grow up way too fast.
Thank you for commenting on my AS painted chairs today..I love them! Have a great week!
Hugs
Wanda
yay for energy and working out! sweet boy turning 16 now! time flies...
ReplyDeleteI always feel better when I exercise but it's hard to do everything good for us! I try to eat lighter meals, too but who wants to be hungry? heehee! Hope you have a beautiful day! You've made a great start! Sweet hugs!
ReplyDeleteHi Nancy!
ReplyDeleteI put on jeans this morning that required the bed wiggle...lol! I have to walk uphill more mornings to get back into shape.
Happy 16th BD to your grandson! I'm sure he's very handsome as he was a very cute boy!
Fun post . . . next . . . I'd love to see you in a Pilates video . . . come on! Please?
ReplyDeleteWho can forget the "Box of Chocolates"? Have a good week..
ReplyDeleteOh for sure, I'd have stopped to see those birds! How lucky you had your camera with you! What kind are they? Nothing I've ever seen!
