Got my copy of "This Is It" today. Well, my husband got it for me. He was upset because he also wanted to get the MJ cut out for me, but the store said they threw it away yesterday.  I didn't know why he wanted me to have it.  I don't even know what I would've done with it, but I'm glad that he went out of his way to do something like that for me...not that he doesn't all the time anyway.   He's absolutely the sweetest.

Anyway, I keep watching the DVD over and over. My husband isn't a fan, but was really astounded by it and said that he is convinced that if the concert had come into fruition, it would've been the best show ever done. I agree but couldn't get over how impressed he was as a non fan.

He also stated that he thinks that my seeing the movie at this time was good because enough time had passed. I agreed. I feel that if I'd seen it in theaters when it was released so soon after Michael's passing that I would've cried. Although he said that I would've done more than just cried. He said I would've "lost it" and he would've had to carry me out of the theater. I don't think it would've been that bad, but it's okay to disagree.

But none the less, it is a great DVD and I'm glad that I have it because unfortunately, this is it.
Fitness: Finally got my Jillian Michaels DVD the other day.  I decided not to go with the 30 day shred, but the body sculpt one, as I'm only trying to tone and no longer trying to lose weight.  Only thing is I haven't used it yet.  I want to wait until my husband is ready to do it with me but he's been pretty busy working lately, hopefully we'll do it tomorrow.

Although, I did do the warm up and I can see that it has potential.  However, on a weird but non pc note (hope no one takes offense). I wish the people working out behind Jillian were in better shape.  The people exercising behind her are overweight and it's hard for me to be inspired by that.  I guess what I need to do is just focus on Jillian and I'll be okay.

Gardening:  Even with the temps dipping into freezing overnight for the past few nights, my tulips are still doing great.  I'm glad that I covered them.  I'm on pins and needles.  I'm hoping they'll be in bloom by the end of next month.

Drear: I totally agree.  A mix of people would be good.  I've read reviews on some bellydance DVD's where some people didn't like seeing thin girls teach because they felt it didn't represent them. I'm sure everyone is different in what inspires them.

Working around the house can be good exercise.  Actually, I prefer it because it doesn't feel like "exercise".  Unfortunately, I don't have much around the house that would get me toned. 

I doubt a mini stepper would work for me either.  Dancing can be good, but it depends on how intense it is.

Fitness:Today, I didn't work out but I did do lot's of cleaning and some garden work.

Hi Trisha.  Yep, I'm okay, thanks for asking.

Fitness: Been working out pretty hard lately.  I had to take my body sculpt dvd back as it would no longer play, it kept pixilating.  They exchanged it. 

Level 1 wasn't much of a challenge so I skipped right to level 2, it kicks my butt.  I'm still bellydancing, doing the fitness coach, the elliptical etc.

My Birthday: Was going to go to New Orleans for my birthday, but the weather is going to be yucky so we'll remain local.  Not sure what we're going to do though.

I got on the scale the other day and it said 123, pretty cool.
