Welcome

I am free. I live in a free country and love to plunge into life with all that is within me. Spring makes me so energized and ready for a new season in my own life. I even joined the gym, me, the one who doesn't have an athletic bone in my body. I joined January 7,2009 and go there five times a week...me...the one who hated exercise and haven't moved in years. I love it! I challenged myself to go, to never give it up, to enjoy the experience as my body gets healthy (and thinner). My oldest daughter was the one who had joined last year and kept encouraging me to go with her. I had a million excuses but finally signed up. It is freedom to go and actually admit to myself that I was wrong all those years of being a couch potato. I actually look forward to going...me. I have met new friends and it has opened up a whole new world to me. You can change, you can try new things, you can conquer fears and old bad habits. I want to do this sort of thing until I croak. I never want to stop reading, exploring new food and places, take up new skills and technology gets better and better. There is a whole world out there for me to discover. I want to do that. Boredom will not be in my vocabulary. I want to dance with the new, hug it, wrap it around me, and cling to it as the music directs my steps into new adventures.
