Forgot to come back on and answer my own prompt -

I agree with stronger sunshine inspiring me to move more. We're working on getting the pool open, so that will add in some swimming (but honestly, it's more just floating ) The real change comes when school lets out, though - my neighbor is a teacher, so she has more time then and we go for more and longer walks.

What's your WooHoo Wednesday today?

Helllo!!!!!! Catching up!!

Topic Tuesday-YES I have been motivated and made changes recently. I was inspired by a speaker at my church’s women’s conference to just get up early and I started to get up 20 minutes earlier to start and this week I am up to 35 mins earlier. I am going to increase slowly until I am up to a hour.

What do I do with this extra time? Well, I read my daily readers Bible then I journal using the SOAP method, which I also learned at my conference. That was my first 20 extra minutes…now with my additional 15 I do a 15 minute yoga video from YouTube! My body feels so much better just after 2 weeks of doing this consistently!!

Whoooohooooo Wednesday-it’s my last day of work for the week! I took leave tomorrow to help my sister, her Thursday babysitter is on vacation so I am watching my niece tomorrow and Friday, she’s also sleeping over. I think I will get the porch cleaned up tomorrow…thinking of putting a little pool up for the summer…we will see!

Have a great day everyone!

My WooHoo is that we're leaving tomorrow night for a long-weekend getaway! We're flying into Orlando and then doing a weekend cruise from Port Canaveral. I never thought I'd enjoy 3 or 4 night cruises until we tried one last Labor Day and really enjoyed it. I think it would be a bit much if you were having to get your whole family on and off one, but for just DH and me, we had a great and relaxing time!

What is the SOAP method?

I will say, I love reading about the activity level of your church. Our church used to be like that, but things just really slacked off when we got our current pastor. I really like him, but he definitely doesn't promote "extra" activities. We are actually getting a new pastor at the end of June, so maybe it'll be a little easier getting back into some more bonding activities when he's here.
