Wiiiiiiiiiiiiii!

It's not as if nothing has been going on around here, I've just been waking up for our earlier summer hours. This means that I in good shape if I make it out the door 15 minutes late. Not much time or thought processing going on for blogging.

However, I'm stopping int his morning to plug a recent purchase we made. We picked up the Wii Active at Costco this weekend and I must report, it kicked my butt.


This thing takes no mercy on you. As I was about to collapse during my second attempt in the inline skating (you squat and then do jumps - 24 times. I remember failing at this exercise every time I tried it during the 3 months I was super-motivated in college and enrolled in 30-minute bootcamp at the gym. Anyway...) and the trainer is telling me "You're going to get hurt out there! Are you even trying!?" The next thing I know I find myself cursing the TV and an avatar in a video game.

But you know what?

I'm a good sore today and I think I may actually make it through this 30-day challenge. Coming from someone who loathes exercise (i know, I KNOW), this should be a statement enough to sell it to everyone who knows me.

Plus, if I can drop this last 10 pounds before our family vacation I am treating myself to a serious shopping spree.
