WAHOOOOOO! Day #10!!! How are you feeling about completing 10 days? Good? It is always nice to have done something good for yourself for 10 consecutive days. So yay!! Let’s keep going. I have one friend already talking about making this 30 minutes a day thing a permanent habit. That is really a great idea. 🙂 Thirty minutes really isn’t that long.
Today is Monday, I’ll be back here after I teach my 9 am Nia class. This month I am subbing a Yoga class while the regular teacher is on maternity leave. I am teaching Nia and the yoga students love it.
Thank you so much for being here and for participating in the challenge! WAHOOO!

Day #9!!! Yay!! Keep going. Thirty minutes really isn’t that long you could probably even move for longer . . . .why not? It’s Sunday. Squeeze in a few more minutes! Could be 10 minutes here, and 10 minutes there. Maybe 5 minutes while you are waiting for your coffee to brew? Whatever . . . . I am sure you can find 30 minutes to get some movement and exercise in.
I have a date with some friends. We are doing our Christmas thing this year. It is bittersweet because while we are happy to still be gathering we are sad because we miss one of our four. (Hello, Michele! We love and miss you!) I better get my 30 minutes in early!
I’ll be back. What about you?

Be sure to get your 30 minutes in. You know you will feel great about it, so do it. Either you are here to check in or you are here for encouragement and a reminder to do it!
Do it! It will make the rest of your day awesome. It will only take a mere 1800 seconds . . . . . so do it. And comment here when you have. YAY you!!!!!

YAY YOU FOR BEING HERE!!! Still trucking, I see. I had to look that phrase up.
According to Wordwizard, there are several references listed that state it means “to carry on”. Some references refer to truck driving as in driving through the night and some refer to a marathon dance contests of the 1930s; “or with the type of lively dancing known as truckin’ (from a song of the same name, written in the mid-1930s).” The site goes onto say it didn’t come from trucking but had to do with railroads, and on to say, that some people believe it came from the Grateful Dead. The post ends with:
“So, the origin could have been from the marathon dance contests of the 1930s with the image of trucks driving through the night, or from the dance and song, which might have come from the image of the long-haul truck or from the baggage trucks used in railroad stations. Or the expression could have come from a jazz dance step, that was used for exiting a stage, which was based on the image of . . . . and which might or might not have been related to the popular dance step, . . . . and which was slang for sexual intercourse . . . . . . . . ,”
Sigh. Who knows, huh? All I know is we are still doing our movement on day six! Yay. I’ll be back.

I am so glad you are here. As we get closer to Christmas it might become more of a challenge to keep going, but six days in . . . . YOU CAN DO IT! So can I, right? I am here to GET support as much as give support. I have a few things going on this weekend and I need to get stuff done. I could easily skip 30 minutes, especially since I am going to teach a Nia class tonight. With my class I will be getting in my aerobic exercise. But I will be back to let you know I did my 30 minutes. It might end up being practice for tonight.
What about you?
