Getting Started !!!

Hello Everyone,

This is my first attempt at a blog. I'm not really sure what to write about, so this may be a little uninteresting at first, but I hope not for long. As I learn more about blogging and what people want to hear about, then we can share ;-) or you can listen.

Well, today is Sept 23, 2008. The 1st day after my 62nd Birthday. Yep, I'm 62 getting up there in years but feel like I am still a young girl. I guess only those of us that have reached the plateau of shall I call it middle age, well maybe a wee bit above middle age, can know what I'm talking about. How you feel your still a teenager at heart and mind but when you look in the mirror the terrible realization of life being what it is sets in.

Anyway, this morning I had a doctor appointment to followup previous tests and check to see how I was doing. Everything came back great and got a good bill of health. My only complaint was why do I have to have these extra pounds on me. Gosh, I don't eat that much, but still seem to maintain a weight that I don't desire. Doc said I have to work on my metabolism. Yep, that ugly thing that creeps up on us as we start getting older. Well, it started creeping along time ago, but it really didn't bother me because I wasn't that big. But as time passes my metabolism seems to get worse. She said that I should try walking, as 30 minutes of walking each day will tremendously improve my metabolism and help me reach my goal weight. So now I just have to get the motivation to do that. I will, I know I will.

I'm going to end this little post by saying, thanks for reading this far and I will hopefully come up with more interesting things to talk about. But, I had to start somewhere and this was it.

So take care ;-) and may all things good happen for you and to you.
Love & Hugs,
Rose Arlene
