I can't believe it's October!

Where has this year gone????
It is just rushing past!

Well, each month I have been trying to create a new habit...and for October it's going to be taking care of myself physically. Yep, that mean exercising and eating right. I joined a gym yesterday that has a ladies only workout room, and I'm really looking forward to using it. I really need to work on strengthening my core muscles so I don't have as many back problems, and I need to work on my flexibility. Hopefully a byproduct of all of this will be some weight loss too. I don't have too much to lose, maybe 10# max, but it will be nice seeing my clothes fit me better. I am just really looking forward to feeling GOOD! I'm tired of being run down or hurting from back pain and/or Lupus.

I took Granola, our 3 year old Golden Retriever, for a mega-walk this morning. Other then the fact that my lungs are kinda funny from all the smoke from the fires I feel great! Nola has hardly made any movement at all since we got home....she's one tired pup!
