Pigs Can Fly

Did you know that pigs can fly? They must be able to because something has happened that I thought would never happen. Like pigs flying or certain places freezing over (like El Centro. lol). People used to say to me 'Keep exercising and eventually you will like it.' I heard this for years. Yes, years. I figured that when the above said things happened would be the day that I enjoyed exercising. Well, that day has arrived! Yes, this is Temaire' and not James typing this blog. I LOVE it! Three weeks ago I started attending an adult boot camp class (at my kids gymnastics gym) three times a week and also working out with a personal trainer one to two times a week. At first I hurt so much I thought that I was going to die. I don't hurt like that anymore. Some days I am a bit stiff as I move around and I am for sure tired throughout the day (James says I need to eat more. I kind of like that! lol). I think the difference for me has been working out with other people. I really like the people in my class and I work harder because I don't want to look like a wimp in front of them. One night James' supervisor was in my class and it was a huge incentive (didn't want to look bad in front of someone that works with James! lol) to work even harder. Although, when he told me he was beating me I did say that if he was going to compete against any Erb it would be James and not me! I also love having someone tell me to go harder. Today I was showing my trainer how many push ups I could do. I was ready to quit and she yelled (nicely) for me to do 3 more. I did it! Amazing! Even more amazing is that I enjoy it! I look forward to going to my classes and sessions. I even wish that there were more of them through the week. So, if you look out your window don't be surprised to see a pig flying by.
