Getting Off My Duff

Well, I’ve gone and done it. I had my first appointment with a personal trainer yesterday. I hadn’t realized how out of shape I was :-(. But that also means I’m doing the right thing… so I’ll keep doing it. In fact, we’re going to go so far as to cancel the YMCA membership ($62/month, right now) and instead have the personal trainer come out for both gf_guruilla and myself ($70/visit, eventually to be twice a month). The net total per month will be more, but it will get us moving (as we haven’t been going up to the YMCA, so that money has just been wasted). Further, if we both know the exercises, we can coach each other and will be more likely to do them.

Alas, S&F won’t be able to do them with us for a few weeks. She kicked or tripped on a table (sound familiar) and has a microfracture of a growth plate in her foot, and now is in a walking boot (just like her dad was in summer 2003). But she’s being a good sport about it… when she’s not cranky!
