Let's Get Physical

For once, I exercised and painted my toes today. Maybe my energy is increasing because I’m nearing the end of my first trimester. Maybe it’s because I took two naps. I don’t know. Nothing to report about my toenail painting experience except that it was non-toxic. My workout was another story.

I made my prenatal debut by following along to Denise Austin’s something-or-the-other pregnancy DVD. The video said nothing about actually needing rhythm to complete. I discovered this on my own about midway through. My dogs hadn’t been fed yet and were swarming around me like sharks. Every time I’d mambo in the direction of the kitchen, they would stand up at attention. After one exhausting skip to your lou series, Rosco got underneath me and almost made me fall down. That’s when Denise Austin started getting on my nerves. She’s annoying on a good day, so imagine my disgust after hearing about the importance of exercise and kegels the entire time.

Even though I didn’t break a sweat or a bone, I’d say it was a successful workout. Now I just need to find me some stellar exercise attire like Olivia…
