9/11

I remember the day well. I was helping Kimberly get ready to catch the school bus when I got a call from Joe saying to turn on the TV. I asked which channel and he said, 'it doesn't matter'. I watched the footage of the first plane which had crashed into the Twin Towers. I first thought it must have been an airshow gone terribly wrong. I kissed Kim and she walked to the bus stop. While watching the footage, a second plane crashed. I became very confused as to how a second plane would fly off course. When the announcement came that it might be a terrorist threat, I look out of my front door to see Kimberly step onto her school bus. I didn't know what to do. Should I get her?

That's as far as I got on this one.........

Kori

Today Christopher asked me if I thoughtm the name "Kimmie" was a little..... BORING. He has decided that her name should be Kori. I am still to call her Kimberly, but not Kimmie.

Fitness

So today was my Cardio Kickboxing class! I really enjoy these classes AFTER they are over. They are very challenging for people at every fitness level. I've gotten more of a workout today since I can participate in more of the moves. I think this is about my 6th class. The first class I only moved my legs or my arms, but not at the same time. Now I can box and do some low impact footwork! We had a substitute instructor so it was more of a challege to work on a new routine.

Yesterday was my second Yoga class. I really enjoy the energy I get from this class. It really opens up and lets the oxygen flow in thoughout the body. I have Yoga again on Tues. and Cardio KB on Wednesdays.

Laura F. and I attended classes together last Sun/Wed, but she was out of town this weekend so I went it alone. We are supposed to meet at the gym some time tomorrow I think. It's much more fun having a workout buddy.

Yesterday I met someone in my CKB class who had lap band surgery and has lost 130 pounds! WOW. She doesn't look like she's ever been overweight. I talked with her and she agreed I will get the same results from keeping up my workouts, making sure I eat protein (not a meat eater) and get enough water. Better choices all around. That is how I will do it!
