Some people go to church on Sunday, I went to the gym to make up the workouts I missed during the week (oh yeah, and to workout some of my excess aggression 
. Anyway, I try to stick to my workout schedule religiously during the week (no pun intended), but sometimes things just don’t workout. Today it was my hamstring and calves workout. My favorite gym is a small, no frills, hard core gym, filled with old equipment and down to earth people, who are always happy to see you. They made me thankful and I thought, thats what Sundays and the gym are all about. Appreciating people, places and things. You don’t have to be in a church to do that. xoxo Denise
During my hike this morning I ran into a friend and her 2 year old at the bottom of the hill who needed help hiking back up. Here is the tip, if you want a great workout, push a stroller with an adorable 2 year old, his collection of sticks, rocks and dirt up a very, steep hill for an hour
Today good friends of mine welcomed the arrival of their very first child and celebrated the newest addition to their very special family. I got to ooh and aah as I watched them, and that made this a very special day. Life is a blessing, live it up! xoxo Denise
I’m been working on expanding my live cam show playground, and even though dealing with technical projects is usually no fun, thinking about what I will be able to do certainly is inspiring. I don’t want to make any promises but, my goal is to use a new part of my playground for my members live cam show this coming Friday. Stay tuned and keep your fingers crossed! Denise
I’m working on my travel plans for this years Arnold’s Fitness Weekend in Columbus, Ohio during the first weekend in March. It’s getting close and I’m getting excited…and you know what that means 
. Every year promoters Arnold and Jim make this event bigger and better. I don’t know how they manage to do it year after year but I’m glad they do. It’s an annual highlight and a fantastic way to kick off the new year. Yep, that’s me, surrounded by the kind of international female muscle you will find at this years Arnolds Weekend. I hope to see you there! 
I made a trip to Home Depot today. I just love walking around that store looking at all of the tools and supplies. God the possibilities are endless for us do it yourselfer’s. I picked up a rug for my garage, because I’m working on my home gym set up but what really got my attention was a wooden saw horse called El Burro! Hmmm, now that’s a tool I can really have some fun with. A little bit of padding and a couple of extra attachments and here I come!
…tight and sore and so are my legs. I got back into the gym this week, starting on Monday with a back workout, chest workout on Tuesday and then Leg workout yesterday. In between I have been hiking the mountains so my entire body is tight and sore. Yummmmmmmmmm

Last night we went to see “Up In The Air” starring George Clooney and today we watched the documentary “It Might Get Loud” featuring Led Zeppelin’s Jimmy Page, U2’s The Edge and The White Stripes’ Jack White. I’m enjoying the last day of my holiday vacation as I gear up to get back to the real world of hard work and hard-core training starting tomorrow. If you love good acting, you will really enjoy “Up In The Air” and if you love music, you will be inspired by the reality behind the creative process that helped shape three of the most iconic guitarists of the last three decades.
