i am me!!!

Ok, all you athletic types out there??

if you are not a person that has exercised in the past; is short, round and lack energy -- when is the best time to exercise?

Nancie bought a wii Fit Plus for us to use and the first few days I did great at getting on and doing it. I could do some of the yoga, the Hula-Hoop and the running. I tried the Boxing but couldn't get the hang of it.

I am not comfortable enough to go to a gym and the weather here right now has not been up for walking at lunch time (snow, rain, wind).

I started to do the wii in the evening but then just was so tired when I got home that I couldn't do much. The mornings - unless I get up earlier than I currently do (5:30) -- I don't know if I can fit it in.

So, would it be ok to maybe try 10 minutes in the morning then do 10 or more in the evening, slowly bringing up my energy/skills so that I can do it longer. Will splitting it up help me build up my staminia so that I can do it longer? Or am I just kidding myself that I can get fit?

I know that when the evenings start staying lighter and the sun comes out, I will be doing a lot of cemetery recording (I have one that I need to finish up (about 2000 more photos to take) and one that I am entering now than I have to totally take all the pictures for it. And then there is Mountain View that has over 125,000 burials that I am working on the photos for. These are when I can walk for hours and hours.

So, is splitting up exercise time ok or do I need to just do it all at once???

Help please!!

Oh my Goodness

according to the scale, I have actually lost a little bit of weight - not much but a few pounds. I guess that is better than nothing, right??

The weather here has been horrible for the last week or so, we have had rain, snow, cold (very cold for us), more rain, wind and more wind.

I had to take the bus all of last week because of the snow -- I don't drive in it and now I think I have to take my car in to be looked at because I think there is a problem. I will admit, I do not know anything about cars except that you need to put gas in them, air in the tires and oil changed. Everything else, forget it, I don't understand.

Now, maybe I am wrong but here is what is happening:

When I get to a corner and am turning right, the car seems to almost studder a bit. Its like you slow to turn, complete the turn then go to put more gas and it almost jerks. Its hard to say without using my hands but it just doesn't seem to move smoothly. And it is only when I turn right, nothing else.

I looked on line and it could be a list of things: a dirty fuel line, a dirty fuel filter and about 20 other things. And of course, it is going to probably cost $$$$ so there goes the savings for my laptop and Amy wants a new mattress set -- heck I am buying a ticket for Lotto Max for $50 million, so who knows.

Anyways, that is about it for now.

Excepts I have blocked a Health Food Company that thought they could post in my comments and have people go to them - I don't think so.
