Just for Us!!

My dear readers, I have something exciting to share....I have a dear friend from New York, that goes by 'Mags', who I have know for many years- lets just say back to 8th or 9th grade..she's gonna kill me for not remembering this!!!  ANYWAY, after school we lost touch...both moved both had life that took us different ways..then through another high school friend that I caught up to through something like classmates.com, I got back in touch with Mags...   WOW, we took off just like it was high school...it's so wonderful to have her back in my life- I could brag how much she has on her plate right now, but one thing that we ALL have in common is that we are WOMEN WITH A HEART...and a heart that we need to take care of. Now, not sure about you, but some of us have paid attention to others in our lives. ie..husbands, children, college in late periods of our life, work...etc, and we become last in our priority of 'taking care of'     Well, Mags and I wanted to change that! In the past, when we supported each other- it felt good and worked!   Life certainly gets in the way, so she emailed me and said..."Weren't we doing this???" YES! So, I hopped on the Internet (when am I NOT on the Internet?)and just went right to the American Heart Association and I found a 12 week program called Choose to Move! Great free format that I thought would be that 'third wheel' to keep Mags and I on track. Then I had a fantastic idea..WHY KEEP THIS TO OURSELVES?  My blog readers could  should know about this fun thing! So, let me introduce {Choose To Move}   The statistics are startling...one may think of variety of cancers - those are serious as well, but the statistics show it's a little know fact that heart disease is WOMANS #1 KILLER!!!!   500,000 a year! So my challenge (and care) for my blog readers is to perhaps join us with this twelve week Choose To Move program. To keep me on task I want to blog about it weekly. Ok, Mags (and readers!).....lets start printing out those items they have for us this week! I'm also going to be working on my {Book of Dreams}..need to post some more pictures! ...oh, and that darn "K" is a couple of days late! ...and I was daring to think I might want to do the 'Amazing Lace'...Oh, Lordy...Golden Oasis seems to be getting too busy with things I want to do!!!   First things first..... MY HEART! I'm just really pondering this wonderful muscle...when you really about it...how it beats for so long of time! ...well let's go and ADD some beats to it's length of time!!!

Thanks for that link! I signed up -- keep blogging about this because I'm hoping that the peer pressure will motivate me.
