Treat Yourself Tuesday



No excuses, ladies. It's Tuesday and I hope you are going to treat yourself in some fashion before the day is up. Whether you are an empty nest Mom or Dad, a parent with little tikes surrounding your every move or an active single, you deserve this little treat.

This may sound a little lame, (but sometimes fitting in even the smallest of treats is difficult), I am going to the place I workout from 3-5 pm. If I am brave, I'll take in a class. I'll need to stay in the back row for sure as I am really out of shape compared to most of the people at The Village. Sometimes I get a kick out of being in the back row of a spinning class. I can see sweat flying and people forcing themselves to do the best they can, pedaling to some loud, heart-pumping music. Little butts going up and down together. And the instructors are all crazy. They are type A, excitable human-beings that live and die by exercise. They actually inspire me.

If I am really good, after working out, I will order one of their fantastic fruit smoothies. I am thinking strawberry-banana. Yummy!

  1. You are very correct spin instructors are insane. They get off on watching other people in serious pain

  2. You are more motivated than I am, while sporting my "boot". I treated myself to 20 minutes with a book sitting by the pool this afternoon.

  3. I'll skip the spinning class and go straight for the smoothie.

  4. Spinning class! Lady, I'm impressed! I don't think I would know what to do with a bike if I saw one. So, I'm with Lisa on this one. I'll meet you for a smoothie.

  5. My end of workout treat is 10 minutes in the steam room, you sweat out that last pound and there's no pain involved!

  6. I always treat myself to a really rich coffee at Starbucks while I grocery shop. Everyone should have a treat while doing that mundane event!
