I quit the gym.

Three years ago, I started going to the gym with my husband, in an effort to get him in better shape. Before that, I went to a gym here and there but, I like to walk outdoors. My husband and I would go to a class called General Fitness. It was like a boot camp program. I really didn't enjoy anyone telling me what to do so early in the morning. I muttle through. We did other things too. But, three years and a few injuries later, I am done. I quit the gym.
I went for a short two mile walk today with my headphones and mp3 player, and was reminded how much I used to love walking outside. It is so relaxing, nobody telling me what to do, and gathering my thoughts for the day.
So now it is Yoga, walking (with Lu Lu), and cycling outside (with my hubby) from now on. I am not sure what I am going to do in the thick of summer yet, but I will cross that bridge when I get to it!
The picture is of my new walking buddy. I know she is going to like that too! (Lu Lu) She really needs the exercise. I would take Angel but, her little legs can only take her so far.

My knee and more on Jamaica.






























Sadly, I have lost a little bit of my motivation because I hurt my knee and it just aches. I HATE it! I actually hurt it in Yoga. Do not be afraid of Yoga now. I don't know exactly why but, I was in what you would call pigeon position and I hurt my know on the straight leg. I am really good at this one too, so it really took me off guard.
I just wanted to share a little more on Jamaica. So today you can see some random pictures of my Jamaica vacation. I hope you will enjoy.
1. These are some pretty flowers.
2. This guy was on my balcony. He was probably wondering about my one big eye (camera) ogling him.
3. This boat was thrown to shore years ago during a hurricane. There are no cranes on the island to move it so, it is stuck there.
4. This photo is from my balcony, it was the path leading to my room.
