If you are in the Northeast, you are getting pounded right now with snow. If you go to your local gym, be careful. These big snows always produce horrific driving conditions and I don’t want any of you getting in a fender bender trying to get into the gym. Maybe do some home exercise routines instead? If you’re headed to work, you’re going to be out anyway, but please be careful. Watch out for the other drivers, who may not know how to drive in the snow.

Alright folks! It’s Monday, and it’s time to get at it. Dig in and grind.

Do a little each day toward your goals, whether it’s reading, writing, exercise, or learning. A little each day will take you far–promise. It’s so easy to do, it is like your goals fulfill themselves.

This week, I’ll be busy with all the things I have planned. My exercise routine, particularly due to the snow we are getting, will be full body exercise band workouts. I’ll also hit our cycle in the den downstairs to get some cardio or I’ll do some stairs.

Have a great week, folks! Month 2 of 2021 is upon us! ATTACK!!!

Until next time…

Daily Ramblings – Thankful Thursday – Mom

Birthday, caretaker, cheerleader, consistent, dependable, family, listener, Mom, Mother

Today is my Mother’s birthday. She had me when she was 20. Throughout my life, Mom has been a supporter. She attended every concert, sporting event, and ceremony. She always got my birthday cards and presents to me, regardless of where I was in college or the Army. She is very much the busy-body today that she was when I was growing up. She gardens, cooks, takes care of my Dad, and is constantly on the move. It is amazing, considering she is 77 today.

She is also a caretaker. She took care of my Dad’s Dad when he had a stroke and was all by himself. She took care of her Mother when dementia struck. Now she takes care of my Dad, who is also a victim of dementia. She is a listening ear to friends, my brother and sister, and me, when life tosses us a curve ball.

So today, I am grateful for my Mom. Happy Birthday! Here’s to many more.

Until next time…
