Regrouping

Moo and I were very hype this morning. We just knew that since football practice had started and we were still walking, that he would have lost a gazillion pounds and all would be well in the world. We both came inside and did a weigh in. Usually in the past, we would be like…

Mixed Messages

So, Moo and I are walking and talking, about football and every other random fact that he wanted to share with me this morning. He began to share with me his decision to try to stay with his age group and play football with them, as opposed to moving up to the next age range.…

Push Past the Doubt

Moo had his first night of Rec League football practice last night, and of course he came home tired as a junk yard dog. But I told him weeks earlier that we would still do our workout in the morning in addition to his practice, so off we went this morning. And we fell into…

A Lovely Day

Today was handweight day, so I laid in bed a little while longer, dreading feeling I had got in a fight and lost. But I got up, got Moo up and we set out to "do the damn thang" lol. After all, We had some breading to burn off (Watermelon Festival - fried crabs- don't…

A Kinder, Gentler KP

When Moo and I got outside this morning, I announce that we are starting our version of interval training this week.

The Little Things….

I did my usual this morning. I woke up, but laid in bed for a few minutes. I do this mind game thing where I try to guess what time of morning it is by turning over and looking through the blinds in my room. I know, it would be easier to just look at…

More Ruthisms

I just realized that I hadn't posted any Ruthisms in a while, so here goes:- Taken from her mother, Adelaide Bazemore: it's better to have 2 or 3 really good friends than 20 "fair weather" friends- If worrying would pay all of my bills, I would stay up all night on the 1st of the…

A New Route

This morning Moo suggested we walk a new route. I told him that I had mapped out a new route on Nike.com, so we decided to walk that route. When we got to the main street, traffic was a bit heavy,(yes, even in the country, traffic can be heavy lol) so we decided to cross…

Raising Moo Is Hard

This morning when Moo and I went outside to walk, I announced that we were starting today with our weights. Moo became excited and in true Moo fashion, grabbed the biggest sets of weights and took off. I asked him if he wanted the smaller weights and explained that he may need to start off…

Teaching Moo

We woke up late this morning, but I was determined to get a walk in, so that's what we did....and Moo was walking slow, not even trying to keep up...so I look back and instruct him to keep up...and he told me that he thought I would slow down so that he could catch up....why…
