Woohoo! I was excited and nervous at the same time about meeting my personal trainer today, but I went and I'm glad I DID! Believe it or not, I've never worked out in a gym. I've always ran tracks, ran in the neighborhood or on my treadmill.
My husband has always been physically active and has been resting for some-time recovering from Pituitary Tumor Surgery. He feels strong enough to start working out again and I'm glad he's helping me out. Kind of....I guess you can say it's helping out when you buy a annual couples pass to the gym. Now I have no choice but to get myself there and make the $ worth it.
I met with my Personal Trainer this morning. The sweetest gal! I was expecting Jillian. haha! She had me got on each of the machine's and showed me how each of 'em work. Yes, even the treadmill. The treadmills at the gym are way more high tech than the ones I've used at home. I can even watch TV! lol After working it on the treadmill, Ellipticals, and Fitness Bikes we moved to weights. OH YEAH-LOVED IT! I've always thought if you work with weights you bulk up like a guy. lol! I sure was wrong! I didn't want to leave this area. Much more easier than Cardio. :) Was wierd to sit on some of the weight seats, cause some of the exercises are awkward. haha! But I loved it! Everyone of em!
So after getting a good feel of the gym......I'm ready!

MONTH OF LOVE
Dear Peni,
I'm so grateful to the Lord for Blessing me with YOU. As you left for work this morning, I was thinking about all the good memories we've made, the good times we've shared and the love between us that keeps growing. You are not only my Eternal Companion, but my best friend and soul mate. You are a blessing from above ,one that I do not take for granted. Thank you for everything you've done for me and the kids. Not only are you a wonderful husband, you're a great father, provider and caregiver. I love you, Hon! I'm forever grateful for your love and proud to be your wife.
Love,
'Inga

*2011*
On New Years Eve my husband and the kids went to church to help setup for our ward dance/celebration that was to take place that night. Since it was almost a New Year I needed a new hair-do. This was the perfect time to go to the Salon. I was excited for a change since it's been a while I've did anything with my hair.
I don't know if it was such a good idea. I decided I wanted to get highlights. I was relaxed and excited as the hair dresser started to unfold the foil. She told me that the color would look dark, but when she washed my hair it would be a lot lighter. I seemed to believe her. As she was blow drying my hair I could see the color it was going to be........:( :( The color was nowhere near what I wanted. I was upset inside. As I watched the other ladies/girls get their hair fixed. I was really upset at how nice their hair turned out. When I told her I didn't like the color, she said that if she would've left it longer ,it would damage my hair. As if it's not already damaged. haha! She tried to make things better by saying...next time I come in she could get it lighter. NEXT TIME? I don't think there will ever be a next time. :( Pssshhhhhhh! I know...What a great time to have this attitude!
I think I was way too nice. I even gave her a good tip. Why did I do that? No, I wasn't preparing for a New Year. But this is totally killing my New Years. When I picked up my husband and the kids from church I put my hood on because I was embarrassed of my hair. We got home and I told my husband I didn't feel like going to the dance. ALL BECAUSE MY HAIR! It may not look as bad as I make it to be, but I need a fixer-upper! It's still the way it was a week ago. hahahahhaha!
Anyways....We've made New Year Goals as a family and our biggest one is SERVICE. When we held our first Family Home Evening for this year, Daddy asked the kids what service was. Fanga seemed to understand and Anela replied: "It's when you help an old lady." :) Yes, it is Anela! :) We have also made it a goal to do daily scripture reading as a family. Our list goes on.......So far, So good!
Peni is back to work. Things are back to the way it was...Only better! Our little family has grown a lot closer through everything we've been through this past year. It was weird for Anela and Ben Jr. to see their Dad go back to work. They woke up the morning he went back and asked where Daddy was. They miss waking up to Daddy. But it's a good thing he's back. He feels so much better and is also happy to be back at work. His Neurologist gave him NO RESTRICTIONS. Wow and Hallelujah! :) Thanks AGAIN to everyone who has been there for our little family while Peni was sick. God Bless!
Excited for a NEW BEGINNING.......
