UPDATE / Week of February 1 to 7

I’m proud to say
that I’m well on my way
to making it a habit to
every day.
Olé!
Yes, my one and only BABY STEP this past week was to stretch for 20 minutes every day as soon as I got home from my morning walk.
Result:
I love it!
Of course, I was lucky to have the sun shining in my kitchen all week long; with a little imagination, I felt I was by the ocean, lying on a beach towel. What can I say, I’ve got a talent for make-believe — it’s one of the main ingredients in my recipe for happiness.
Music is also a big part of the mix. I now know exactly how many James Taylor songs it takes to accompany my 20-minute routine — I put his greatest hits on “play” and I stretch and relax and feel the pain from Something in The Way She Moves to the end of You’ve Got a Friend.
Conclusion:
I won’t say I’m hooked just yet. No. I’m going to wait another week or two. I want to see if I’ll be as enthused about the whole thing when there’s no sun around to give me a high.
Surprise:
On Saturday morning, I went skating for the first time in 24 years. It took me less than 5 minutes to realize that I could still stand on two blades and glide, Baby, glide. Another habit, maybe? — We’ll see!
Hey… how was your week?
