Something New





Today I'm going to post about something that I never have previously...my weight and exercising.

I don't exercise and I don't worry about my weight. Why? Because God is merciful. I think God understands that I am not capable of keeping Adeline alive and having to exercise on top of that. Don't get me wrong, I'm active and I eat healthy, I don't consciously exercise.


My friend decided that she wanted to start running, and I thought I would go with her. We live in A-town and it just isn't wise to go out by oneself in the evening, even if it is for a noble cause like physical fitness.


So we set up to go running last night. I went to my dresser and I realized I have no exercise clothes. I mean none. I rummaged for ten minutes last night looking for a sports bra. I know what I have isn't very big, but that doesn't mean that they don't need the best support I can give them.


In the end I had on a pair of 6 year old wrinkled shorts that I had some how managed to surface and a see-through shirt that I'm pretty sure wasn't intended for sweat that showed me wearing not a sports bra.


Pathetic.


But I ran and I'm not sore, and Adeline may or may not live to see another day.

  1. This is impressive! You forgot to mention that you have been a runner in your not-so-distant past...it's just like riding a bike...it all comes back to you. But, get a sports bra; you're girls and A-town will thank you. :)

  2. I'm a bit of a fitness buff myself, but as far as workout clothing goes, who cares, right? You're just going to get them all nasty and sweaty anyway. I'm sure your see through shirt gave some old guy in the neighborhood the biggest thrill he's had in years!

  3. Good Luck! To bad we can't exercise together. I might actually have the will power to do it.
