Suck it up, Princess!

This is an email sent from a fitness client, her name, Bonnita.

Bonnita is a young vivacious creature of great beauty, strength and sucking it up-ness ;)

Thank goodness for that!

Excerpt from Wonder Woman's blog, September 28

One of my little old lady clients (- my favorite actually,) wrote today to tell me that she could hardly stand up, or sit down for that matter. Her arms hurt, her chest hurts and her stomach hurts. I feel so sorry for her, I think she should never have to work out so hard ever again poor thing.
*******************************************

Bonnita, thank you for your witty contribution to my evening.


Empathetically I state to you, "Suck it up princess!"

I add to that last remark, "You should never have to workout so hard (yes, my mind went off into spastic directions typing such a solid word...) ever again."

Then I retort quickly, with a smirk upon my lips, "Until next class."

Have a Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreat Weekend!

*blows a kiss*

Erratic Incidental Chance Deliberations

Friday came early (no pun intended) Thursday, when I returned home after running errands to be greeted by Seamus! I had made mention of missing him that morning to a friend, and VOILA there he was!

We shared some time together. I take pleasure in spending time with him, simple tasks done jointly. Evoking bigger smiles, deeper laughter. Each happening, a sensation of gratification - always :)

My eldest son had a football game, we all went to witness his talent on the field. The Marauders won, again. Undefeated, thus far *crosses fingers* - yay!

A tranquil evening followed.

All in all, a superlative day.

***********************************

Friday morning arrived at the expected time of 5:30am.

Still cold ridden, but as always sucking it up :)

Overwhelming feelings of gratitude and contentment.

Thank you for the everything in my life. My thoughts throughout the day were just that, "thank you". Each instant providing proof to my conscious self, recollecting images of why I felt as such. Conclusion: Every day is a day to be rejoiced.

I truthfully feel this passionate.

I'm passionate.

Life, people, lessons, living, relationships, learning...

Passion.

*******************************

Happy Friday!

"Happy Friday!" insert *little princess like wave* ...

Today I smiled!

I laughed.

I worked.

I thought, I did, I achieved.

I then remembered.

I smiled, again.

I wish for you, a day like today was for me, perfectly today!

You ARE that special!

Today is International Spaz Day.

Please send an encouraging message to a retarded
friend / relative just as I've done.

I don't care if you lick windows, interfere with
farm animals or occasionally shit yourself.

You hang in there sunshine, you're fucking special.

Teaching Today

I love days like today. The days whereas I am able to get my muscle training into the day, and help other women do the same. Heaven forbid smiling, laughing, sarcasm and fitness - it's like a whole over body experience!

Mind, body, spirit/soul...

Oddly enough however I don't sleep well the night before. Afraid of, well, I'm unsure. I have participated in ToastMasters, in the past hoping to vanish my fear of speaking to groups.

Now, I'm a fun, lively individual one on one. Get me into a group without alias, I'm screwed :( And not of the good variety. It takes a great deal of effort on my part to be the fun I am, when on display for others.

I get over this fear each and every class (3 classes 2x's a week = 6 classes) believing in my genuine, true to heart motive for teaching fitness classes.

I really do care.

Titillating Tuesday's Witticism

Q: What did the one saggy boob say to the other saggy boob?

A: "If we don't get some support soon, people will think we're nuts!"

Oooooohh the sheer irony in that giggle, as I sit before the computer, in my pajamas, breasts free, hanging, drooping in fact, to... just above my waist ;)

Now that's a visage one could, should, and wants to live without!

Neener :-P

A Thought to Ponder - Or Not

Two Wolves

One evening an old Cherokee Indian told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people.

He said, "My son, the battle is between 2 "wolves" inside us all.

One is Evil…it is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego.

The other is Good…it is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith."

The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather: "Which wolf wins?"

The old Cherokee Indian simply replied, "The one you feed."

Ya Gotta Have Friends

I spent the weekend with friends of mine. One being a great friend, and mentor. I have always been the type of child who had a "best" friend. I have been friends to many, but held special bonds with few. As I age I hold less people close to me, who I am, my life and where I am going. This is me, and I really do like who I am, I don't feel as though I need "false friends" and quite frankly I don't have the time.

This brings me to a comment once said by a client of mine. She had met a man on an online dating service, it didn't work out, the end. Or so she thought. He had a great time, and felt they could still be "friends". She, being a woman to admire, cut directly to the chase. She told him between her two children, working, athletics, and girlfriends, she didn't have enough time during her week as it was. She really wasn't interested in making friends, she wanted a partner not another friend. The end.

Gutsy, bold, a bitch?

Whatever, it's how it is, I admire this way of being. Direct, no one wastes their time and energy. No one gets hurt. How glorious is that?

My friends, thank you for giving me that space in your lives, in your hearts, in your thoughts, to be apart of your memories, and perhaps even a cameo appearance in your future.

God Bless.

Goin to, Where the heck am I going?

Random Thoughts...

Had a super-fantastical visit with my daughter on Friday. We've been doing a Friday morning breakfast date, before her classes begin for the day. She's such a gorgeous (inside and out) lil creature. My four babies are indeed all growing up, and so marvelously I might add.

I love, cherish, enjoy...I'm proud of my children :)

Caught a cold/sinus/flu/icky bug. *sucking it up* ;)

Worked at the day spa Friday, had rather interesting clients.

I enjoy when woman build each other up, compared to my early years when woman competed, ripping their woman counterparts to shreds at the expense of "feeling" better about themselves.

Woman are wise creatures, once they grow up. I have so much to look forward to as my breasts continue to sag.

How far can breasts sag, I wonder...

EEEK, I stopped wondering!

Seamus is home!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I like him a lot, love him very much, enjoy laughing with him hugely!

I'm a very blessed woman, I don't try, I do.

Remember: Do or do not. There is no try. *Yoda*

PS. Going to the ABA (hair show) in Saskatoon this weekend with some girlfriends - yippeeee!

PPS. My wish for you all is to have fun, smile, laugh, eat something chocolate! Yum!

The Truth...

Honesty without a deliberate act of choosing to hurt another is indeed the truth.

Ever have someone ask you a question, a question that leaves you scrambling for "nice" words, ones that won't hurt feelings, pride, egos, etc?

Enlighten me, please...

Is it not up to us to speak on what we feel is true?

Is it not up to another, to choose how to feel about what was said?

Why do people ask your opinion on something if they really just want to hear flattering commentary that supports their beliefs?

How come we rarely answer with a yes, or no anymore? Try this, it's not as easy as it perhaps could be.

I read an article "Learned optimism more useful than truth".

IS IT REALLY?

I am born, here me roar, "Mew!"

Today has been an ugly, yet I feel like a goddess kinda day.

I woke from my decent slumber, cozy. Warm feeling, not anxious about any darn thing, knowing today I could do absolutely anything, or nothing.

I love choices like that - YIPPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

It's rainy, cloudy, rather poopy - I am happy :)

No makeup, no deadlines, no chores, no, no, no.

Mmmm, mmm, mm.

Thought to myself, create a blog, do something that looks, feels, is fun.

Here I am.

Who am I?
