Small Joys of the Week 6

This week has proven two things:

1) I'm old

and

2) my body is no longer 25.

I've been motivated this week.  With that in mind, here's my small joys:

* Pilates/Yoga classes where there are three of you, one instructor and the 60 year old lady next to me can do a side plank with very little problems.  I wanted to hug her afterward and thank her for her motivation.

* Women's Beach Volleyball, namely Misty May-Treanor and Kerri Walsh-Jennings.  I love watching those two.  They are amazing.  They have earned the right to retire...at 35.  They are my age.  I think the only thing I've earned a three-peat on is finishing off French Onion dip in three servings.  Tomato, tamato.

In other ways my week has been joyful:

* Snuggling with Zoe while she sits on my lap, her arm reached around to hug my neck, whispering in her ear that I love her and then she toots on me.  The primal laugh that accompanies that makes the disgusting part of this story totally worth it.

Have a great weekend!
