Things I do for me Monday...




I borrowed this cute little button from Anita over at A Wife, A Woman, A Mom I thought it was a good idea. Thanks Anita!

One of the things I do for me is exercise. I haven't been too consistant in the past, but for the past few weeks I've been going to the Rec Center 5-6 days a week.

First I do this for 30 minutes....



Then I do this for 30 minutes... (For security reasons, I used a body double in these pictures, I'm sure you understand)



But first and most importantly I go to the library and check out the latest magazines to read while I'm exercising... helps pass the time.





and then of couse I must have my little pink shuffle to keep me going... I need some new upbeat music for working out though.. any ideas?



A good comfy pair of these...



I know by now you see how high maintenance I am but I also must have one of these on hand..



So this is something I do for me and I feel so much better when I do!!

That is a wonderful thing you do for yourself! I have fallen off the wagon I need to hop back on :-)

I think working out is an awesome thing you do, just for you! We canceled our Y membership after last summer when we just weren't making use of it and the money spent seemed wasteful. I need to get out and walk..........just start doing something.
BTW, when I used the machines at the Y, I always had a book/magazine with me and water.
Thanks for joining in, I'll link you on my blog!

I agree...I have so much more patience with my kids if I sweat a little in the morning.

I must have my ipod or I really dislike the workout. I listen to upbeat worship music but I like Keith Urban, Paul Brandt, and ABBA to workout to as well.

Way to go Bonnie.

LMAO Lauren has the exact same shuffle! though she doesn't use it to excersize. Now could you motivate me to get off my Lazy bum and excersize a bit?

Wish I could get myself to the gym on a more regular basis. Love the body double.
