Rock Hard Abs!

Have you ever looked at someone and thought, "Wow, they are in amazing shape?" Well, I have that privilege every day. Let me just tell you how that feels...It stinks!!! Jealousy maybe?? Yes, that is what it is. I am jealous of my girls!! They have these legs that are just amazing. And the abs, ugg, I would be happy with just a flat stomach, I don't need a twelve pack like they have.

I being of good English and German descent was blessed with the ability to stay warm on the coldest of nights. A lot of extra insulation all around. Get the picture? Even when I was doing Army ROTC, I did not look remotely chiseled. I am not sure what melting pot the husband dropped from, but apparently, his family is from the deserts where you need no extra fat at all!!! Hence our girls who have amazing strength and agility (from me no doubt) along with no extra body fat(obviously from the Husband).

I look at these girls with true amazement and wonder. "How do they do it?" Well, I have resolved to be thankful to The Creator for blessing me with the ability to last many days without food. I have also resolved to be the best temple for my King I can. Which at this time is looking a little run down.

I am writing this because the girl who has muscles in places most of us have never even moved before, came to me after lunch and said,"I am sore. Why does my back hurt so much?" Well, her coach has stepped up the conditioning of the girls. Like they need stronger muscles!!!! Ok, so they do.

I too need to step up the conditioning. I have fallen short. New Year's Day starts a 40 day challenge to better myself. Join me!! Who knows, maybe you will see me in a leotard at the end...ok maybe not, but there will be a beautiful picture to include lip gloss!!
