The Step

I am very good at making excuses not to use the step but progress is being made.  Almost 15 minutes today.  That isn't a slow step....  step...  step.... pace.  I get moving.  My feet fly across it.  It could be boring but I make it fun.  I put on my Motown vinyl and have fun.

Even my kids are getting into it.  My son looked up from his school work and asked to try.  So he did.  I can't say that he is very coordinated but he had fun and he moved his body for a good 5 minutes.  Then the 13 y/o got into the picture   They took turns until the record ended.

My goal was 20 minutes today.  Is kid fun a good excuse to stop a few minutes early?

I think so.

Time to put on the corset.  I need to train my body back into it.  Then crunches and on to sewing.  My days are beginning to take on a comfortable rhythm finally.  I have a routine I am comfortable with.  One that is healthy for me and for my family.

  1. Gosh, I wish I could get our boys to exercise with me, Dragon's Rose. I try, they whine, usually they say it's girls exercise (even if there are 4 guys in the DVD- the leader is a girl - sigh). What's your secret?

    1. The two oldest girls do have corsets. I made my 19 y/o a corset for her senior prom and the 15 y/o has an Elisabethan (sp?) corset. LOL. They already love them. I think they love all the male attention I get when wear mine to an SCA event.
