Bones, Puppies And Life

Okay, so how come no one told me that after you have been working out for a while, your bones begin the ache?

I was lying in bed this morning before I opened my eyes, moved or indicated to Hubby and Greta and Fritz that I was, actually awake, when I thought to myself, “Wow! My bones ache”. From the top of my head to the tips of my toes. Ache, ache, ache!

I slowly got out of bed and pulled on my robe, which is wonderfully, warm and cuddly, and padded to the kitchen to make the coffee, but once I got into the kitchen the pups saw me and got all excited and began running and jumping around. So, before I made the coffee, I played with the pups.

The weather was really terrible here today with snow, sleet, and ice, but like the mail, I got into my Jeep, put it into 4 wheel drive and went to the health club where I continued to torture my bones. I am actually using the elliptical machine now and I think I will grow to like it in time. For now, it is all torture. However, I am determined to keep on doing this until I am in shape, and then keep it up for the rest of my life.

I came home and had to do some work in the puppy room. It’s such a wonderful feeling to go to the door and call to the puppies and have them all come running making these adorable puppy noises that tell me how happy they are to see me.

My cousin Janet took this picture, and I absolutely love it!

I get my puppy kisses and see those little tails wagging and I know that life is good.

Despite my aching bones!
