Making Changes

During winter break, I started to focus my "learning new things" time on less physically demanding activities:  sewing, knitting, crocheting, and cake decorating.  It's been a great experience.  I feel like I am becoming more a well-rounded individual.  Next weekend, I am heading to an area without mobile coverage and couldn't be more excited!

Sometimes, life throws us opportunities and you just need to reach out and grab onto them with both hands, close your eyes, smile, and enjoy the ride.  I have that feeling very strongly today and it makes my whole body tingle with excitement.
Today's thoughts for Stay Sexy Thursday revolve around Change and the impact it can have on our lives.  Even when the change is challenging to us, embracing and accepting that it's inevitable will help us make sound decisions on how we respond to it.

The 'Stay Sexy' mentality starts first in the head, then with the heart.  Follow both and you will rarely be lead astray.

Pumping Iron

Today at the gym I pumped some iron. I do it regularly. Conditioning my body and keeping fit improves my emotional well being. This past week, I've neglected my emotional well being by not keeping my mental conditioning regiment up, and decided that today is stay sexy Thursday and I need to refocus some of my energy towards fueling my body and my mind. Pathetically and unashamedly that started with appreciating my reflection in the mirror while exercising. The guys next to me didn't seem to mind my foolish grins at myself and the kissing of my biceps. The ladies off to the side seemed to be confused though. It is what it is and what it is is sexy. Can't fault a sexy beast from appreciating their assets. Happy stay sexy Thursday.

Awkward Week

It's been an awkward week, but it's Stay Sexy Thursday so it's helped refocus my thoughts. As I've been processing all that has transpired this week, I can't help but feel love. Love and gratitude for the things I have. Love for the life I am blessed with. I have had many opportunities to learn to build trust in the good of others, patience to endure difficult times, and to have confidence in who I am and what I stand for.

"Don't allow fear to hold you back when you should go forward."

Happy stay sexy Thursday.
