Music

Doesn’t music inspire you? I love listening to so many different types of music. Do you truly listen to the words of the songs that you are listening to? So many songs have so much meaning but we find ourselves singing along to the words but not really listening to the messages. I am so inspired by certain songs. There are so many good song- writers out there, such poets. I find that the older I get, the more I find myself appreciating music.

Music to work out to: I have a few songs that I use on my workout routine. A really good CD, is Basia’s “London, Warsaw & New York” CD. Every song on that CD has a great beat to it. I usually listen to the whole CD while I am on the treadmill. Some other good songs to listen to are some of Jason Mraz’s, like “The Remedy” and some others too. I also like Greenday and Audioslave. I tend to have certain songs that I always use in my workout routine.

Goals/Accomplishments~

Last night was my wally-ball get together. It was really an awesome workout. Damn we are getting good. Maybe when we get really good we can start to use an actual volleyball instead of the big pink and blue one that we have been using. Last week when I played I noticed that other muscles that I have not used were a bit sore. Like my upper-body, which is good. I need to try and utilize all sorts of muscles to get a good all around workout. I have to work more on my abdominal muscles.

One of the ladies in this league works with my husband. She mentioned to him the other day that I look like a very athletic person. That is very funny because that is so not true, but I will let her have that illusion.

As far as my workout plans for tonight, I am going to a Rockies game this afternoon, as long as the weather prevails. If I go to the game, and If I get back in time, I will try and make the 6:00 water aerobics class. If not, I may go visit my friend Mr. Treadmill. Oh, and am I looking forward to that.


Poem of the day~

They touch my heart and feed my soul
Those words that are for me

I listen as you sing them
And feel they make me free

Sometimes your words may hurt me
Sometimes they make me glad

Often times remind me
Of the better times I’ve had

Other times I shed a tear
Listening to you speak

Other times your words
My knees, you make them weak

So many feelings you can touch
As you sing your melody

They touch my heart and feed my soul
Those words that are for me
