Getting Back in the Groove

Happy May 1st!

I simply want to refuse to think about how fast this spring is flying by.

In light of that, I need to recommit to getting back in shape.  Last summer, I was diligent in running three times per week.  Then, over the winter, I just stopped.  Since then, I have gone running maybe 3 times.

So now, here I am, committing on the internet, available to all, that I will get my lazy butt back in shape.  And not just by running!  A facebook friend shared the 30-day ab challenge I have posted below.  I think I'll try it, and let y'all know how that goes!


It doesn't look too daunting, does it?

What are you doing to keep your body in shape?  Wanna stay on track with me?

Currently: April

Currently
Listening
To the sounds of nature, including the birds and the wind blowing through the trees.  And also, the sound of a few unwelcome wasps and bees looking for a place to make their home…
Loving
This 90 degree Spring weather, only 7 days removed from 4” of snow on the ground
Thinking
About how much fun it has been to witness this final new season in our home.  We didn’t move in until the last weekend of April last year, so we didn’t get to see the spring plants cropping up and the buds on our forsythia, pear, and dogwood trees.  I’m still waiting for our enormous cherry tree to blossom.
Wanting
My hubby to return home.  He left at 4:30 AM, and he wasn’t supposed to return today, but he’ll be home in about 1.5 hours!
Needing
To figure out what we’re doing for dinner and finish up my graduate classes.  Only a few more weeks!
Favorite Things
1.    SPRING!!!!  Warm weather is my thing y’all!  Though I also love the snow, so I was very grateful for Mother Nature’s surprise last week.
2.    Lounging around outside with the dog.
3.    Darius Rucker’s version of Wagon Wheel.  I love the Old Crow version, and being a Roanoke College graduate it’s super ingrained in me. Being able to blast it out with the windows down is a great way to spend a few minutes!  Haven’t heard it yet?  Find it here.  The video also features my fave family, the Robertson's from Duck Dynasty.  Check it out!

What's on your Currently??
