“More than halfway through his term, the president felt obliged to prove that he was a legitimate occupant of the Oval Office. It was a profoundly low and debasing moment in American political life.The disbelief fairly dripped from Mr. Obama as he stood at the West Wing lectern. People are out of work, American soldiers are dying overseas and here were cameras to record him stating that he was born in a Hawaii hospital. It was particularly galling to us that it was in answer to a baseless attack with heavy racial undertones.”

“if this is going to be a Christian nation that doesn’t help the poor, either we have to pretend that Jesus was just as selfish as we are, or we’ve got to acknowledge that He commanded us to love the poor and serve the needy without condition and then just admit we just don’t want to do it”

Am I the only one who loved Mousercise?? So I’ve always had a love of fitness. My first memory was waking up at 5:30 am when I was 4 and making my parents turn it on. I loved it so much.

Then I remember getting workout mats and jogging suits for Christmas, and being outside jogging before I was done opening presents. It really wasn’t normal.

I love everything about fitness and I’ve started a new gig to help people love it too. Beachbody is a company that markets in-home fitness products. A few of the more well known: P90X, Insanity, Turbo Fire. I’m one of their newest coaches! I’ve just been certified to teach Turbo in the gym and will be helping coach people along their fitness journey.

Well I’m starting 60 days of a new workout… Insanity… on Monday as part of the Orlando Fit Club. Wish me luck…I’ll keep you updated! If you are around Orlando on Sunday, come out to our kickoff!

Tuesday, January 11:

Since I got home from Christmas break, I’ve spoken with my grandmother nearly every day- when I walk to work, on the walk home from work, on the weekends… Over the holiday, my grandfather passed away from a heart attack and having spent the past (I’m not even sure how many) years focused on being a wife, mother and grandmother- cooking, cleaning, taking care of bills with him, the minutiae of each day- I can’t even imagine what it feels like to suddenly have your husband pass away and your children and grandchildren grow up. She’s built her life around her life with him and now, at 79, she’s left to figure out how to fill the space in her day. I hope my calls can help with that, even in a small way.

One thing that she’s said over and over, during the course of our calls, is that in the 40 plus years of their marriage, they never took a real trip, they never went off on an adventure together…

So as I call her each morning, each night, each weekend, I can’t help but take this as a lesson for myself and my life.

Too soon, you’re too old and it’s too late. So do it now.

Whether that’s an adventure at work or in my personal life, it matters that I get to experience it, that I push for that chance now.

I come from a working middle class family; from parents that are so innately focused on being incredible parents (and they are) and making sure that my brother and I had what we wanted or what we needed, that they sacrificed a lot of their own adventures and put a lot of their personal goals on hold.

I love them so much and appreciate exactly what that means to have parents and a grandmother willing to do that.

But for me, now, at 25, I just keep thinking, for what it’s worth…

Too soon, you’re too old and it’s too late. So do it now.

“

Remember, that sometimes the friends you had at 5, aren’t going to understand the person you are at 18. And the friends you had then aren’t going to understand the person you are at 25.

Life is growth, and if you are so blessed to have at least one friend who will stick with you, and grow with you, hold onto them.
