I don't know what happened but this morning I could just feel I didn't want to do any of it. Once on the elliptical trainer by ten minutes I knew I didn't want to do any of it. Pushed 25 minutes, then almost quit three times during muscle workou...

So as I age and do manual labor I have found that lifting has to take a back seat. For the last 2 months we have been moving, ripping up, painting, installing etc almost daily. Combine that with 3 sons of my own and a thriving daycare (meaning l...

It was hard but forced myself to bed at 8:30 last night. This time of night is always when I get a second wind, so it can be tough getting to bed. So I do feel okay this morning.
