NORTH HOLLYWOOD, Cali* Saturday-I'm gonna work it out. JOIN ME

sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
                                                           JOIN ME ON THIS JOURNEY. I -II-III
I had a friend ask me what I was up to and I drew a blank as to what to say. I mean I am doing tons of stuff and getting stuff done, yes, but more than anything I am thankful to be able to get stuff done and be around on such a beautiful day to appreciate it and have wonderful friends to share with. I forget it when I'm tiptoeing around the apartment in pain. I wake up and check my body for soreness and check the clock for time and make a call as to when I'll work out next so long as I don't skip it. But honestly I'd gladly skip any workout or any physical re-shaping if I needed to help a loved one or was neglecting something in my life, but I am not. I am only neglecting the nights out and about tom-catting or drinking and seriously I ain't feeling any of those things at this time. So I'm happily thankful and genuinely full of love toward all around me and readily available to assist if needed. Until then we are so gonna beat the heck out of this workout routine until it is nothing but a thing (sorry; nothin but a thang!). I'm taking it slow so for those of you considering on joining me on this journey to be better: go on! get on it.
I'm sure you've consulted your physician and asked about a physical workout routine at some point in your long lovely life, why not implement it now or soon. Just start out by setting aside 15 minutes of your day to do some physical activity and commit to that on a daily basis until you can increase the time and the workout strategies. Just 15 minutes, with maybe 15 minute increment, you can do that if you push yourself. I'm sure you'll love the change in mood!
    FYI: the most difficult thing I'm finding when doing this one hour daily workout (I've slowly been increasing my time and routine) is my breathing. It sounds ridiculous, but breathing steadily through my nose to not feel sick is kinda hard, at first. I'm getting better little by little, but all of these little things are adding up to why people don't want to take the 15 minutes a day to work out: It's kind of a pain. But a pain that is definitely worth it. Congratulations those of you that have decided to join me. 15 minutes a day.

NoHo Saturday- Resting up the old body and giving the morning a good go at it!

I've decided to wake up early Saturday, or early for me, instead of staying out late Friday nite showering the people I love with alcoholic drinks and sexy dance.

North Hollywood Friday, MOVIE FRIDAY*Becoming a better person. Starts today.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

BECOMING A BETTER PERSON starts now and with every opportunity put before me.

I hope some of you decide to join me in my quest. My main goal is to be happy. I'm sorry, to be fucking happy, most of the time. My quest is to be a better person overall. I'd like to develop different aspects of my life, and interests in my life to be fulfilled as a person, as a human being. I would love to have as many as you as are willing to commit to this, so that I don't feel like an ass doing this just for myself. And because I see success at the end of this journey and along the way, I would like to also have you guys benefit from this.
    It is no longer The New Year or even near it, as to be seen as starting over. It's more like getting an early start to the new year, today ...and frankly everyday. All I ask is that you increase whatever is you have been doing to become a better person by a little bit more. There is no actual measure as I do not know how much you do to be a better person and therefore can't gage what it means to increase this or these things that make you a better person. I have these 3 simple things I'd like to better.

MIND

BODY

SPIRIT

NORTH HOLLYWOOD FRIDAY
Tonight the air will be filled with the sounds of the weekend. It means everything is just a little louder and livelier. Perfumes and colognes will rain and sweeten well into the night. More drinks than are imaginable will be poured and spilled and drunk up all night until legally sold and beyond. What to do, what to do? Join in the festivities and wake up later the following day? or wake up early the next day and take advantage to get things accomplished? or sleep in and rest the body for whatever the day throws at you?

North Hollywood Thursday. I walked into this one bar in NOHO

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
I'd like to use my time better, and be a better person. Can using my time better make me a better person?

I'd like to use this space to kind of do things on a day to day basis and stay on target, schedule, or whatever means of achieving things work for you, but on a daily basis. Of course you can check in whenever you like. I am here working on this, feel free to join me.
                                                       PHYSICAL CHANGE
Wow, what a day yesterday, huh? and it was only Tuesday. I'm telling you each day, heck, each minute really is what you make of it. Well here, we like to appreciate every waking moment. Not much you can do while you sleep, unless you're considering lucid dreaming and... I saw VANILLA SKY. I went out and did so much exercise as to be in pain yesterday. I trotted during my walk. I trotted for  a good chunk of my 56 min. walk. I have not trotted or jogged or even moved really quick in over a year. I felt the results of my commitment. I an so fucking happy to say that upon waking up today, I put my feet on the floor and wished for the best and after walking around a few minutes I was certain my soreness had diminished by 75%. I was so relieved. It was as I had imagined: just my body getting used to being pushed. If I recall correctly so long as I keep up the same amount of exercise, my body should not be as shocked and bounce back quicker, as the days go by. I intend to do the same routine tonight, and already know the level of discomfort that awaits me, and I am happy to have it.
    Don't forget, I'm simply walking for an hour, that is what has caused such pain, well that and the decision to jog for a bit. The bouncing effect is definitely a game changer (I hate that phrase, lol, I just had to use it-The record set by this particular movie is definitely a game changer. The special effects used in this movie were definitely a game changer-TRITE).

NORTH HOLLYWOOD - THURSDAY

I walked into this bar one day.

Bar number one is very cozy and lit in a manner to make you look good when you're in there. Be sure to talk up the bartender as they are friendly and love new people, sincerely. Many times I've forgotten my way home after a night of shots and a game of darts. They have karaoke with some regularity, so ask for hours and days and come dressed as your favorite singer. Nobody does it yet, but I think it's a tradition that needs to happen. The energy is very different and it greatly changes on these night.It's the kind of place where if you bring someone there they'll say :"why" or flat out "no" at the door. But if you go in and give it a chance, then go back and give it another chance, and then return again and decide to figure out how can this genuine hole in the wall out of another time still be open, then it grows on you.  You can see the entire length of the bar if you're standing in the right angle. It's usually got a slower traffic during the day, so if you just wanted to get out of the scorching North Hollywood sun and grab a cocktail (and if you're ever in the predicament of being in the North Hollywood sun, you'll want to swiftly want to do that or dive into the nearest pool) be assured no one will be jocking for a seat or the attention of the bartender or trying to outdo your outfit. It's a casual outfit and when you walk in the door don't think about it because, it's all you and the other few parched travelers who made it inside. So take your shoes off and give it a go, although, I should worn you I lost my shoes there once to a guy who offered me money for them, he was into that sort of thing. I didn't take any money I just did it as a lark (I kinda miss those shoes, but not as much as I love telling anybody who'll listen about it).

So, go in and RELAAXXX on the well worn bar stools and look at yourself reflected on the mirror as you order drinks, don't you look good in here?

North Hollywood Wednesday. AAARGG.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
I'm continuing with my decision to include physical well being into the things I want to do, accomplish. I would like to expound on this, but it seems like I have over done it, today. I am sore all over. Every single bone hurts and it feels more like the flu than exhaustion. I must wait until tomorrow to find out. Shortly after a shower to remove the sweat, I found I could barely move. ARMS LEGS, all sore. OHHH!
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I've got to stop drinking this stuff, damn it!
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I think blue T-shirts age gonna be big this year.

Even bad publicity is good publicity, right? I wonder if Morrissey would agree?

North Hollywood
DEAR  Wednesday, you've all got a big day ahead let's be sure to enjoy it. I wish I didn't have to rest so badly, 'cause I have so much to say about your peculiar Hollywood ways, but it will have to wait, as I am so sore, right this very minute. I can barely walk without cursing. But...I just visited one of the three known funny bars in this area, and they ain't the stand up comedy variety, that is all I'm gonna tell you. You've got to check it out tomorrow. It's booze and more booze, Oh the humanity! or is it Zumanity?

North Hollywood Tuesday- Smile on the inside, smile on the outside

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
What is up my petite and spoiled  e-n-c-h-u-r-i-t-t-o-s? I've missed you so. I could just hug the whole enchilada outta you. Did you guys enjoy the commercials for subway yesterday? That is how  I feel every time something doesn't fit me that used to fit me. That is to say that is how I feel every time I try on something I haven't tried on for a while, say all my summer clothes!!!! HA HA! I lol so much whenever I try something on. It's like a game-show and I have to guess if I picked the correct thing to wear. Lately I've been getting a lot of "NO WAY"- then I walk away with a consolation piece of clothing, generic jeans or noname pants usually saved for work around the house. Dickies and Levi's are only going out pants :-), well they used to be.

Maybe it isn't Walmart's fault things are going to shit. Maybe we should shop smarter and for things of value. Maybe we should start giving our money to stores that deserve our dollars and give something back to the communities they sell to. Just one idea I'm tossing around to make this world a better place. What do you guys think? Are we as consumers to blame for the way mega stores move in and bully the little guy? Is this wrong? 
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I have managed to stay on target and do ONE hour of walking a day. It is working as far as keeping me in a sweat. My shirts are soaked when I walk in the door. I hope to jog at some point or hopefully substitute it for something more intense that will keep my heartbeat going at a steady rate and won't hurt. If you're wondering about sit-ups? -Why yes, they still hurt. So I've quit doing them for now. I hope some of you have decided to take a walk on the wild side also, and join me. I'm just starting to get a steady pace and getting to do it without finding some excuse to not do it (there is always an excuse). I'm also putting my dancing career on hold for those of you wondering if I'm still up to the task. I have been busy lowering the amount of things on my plate and dancing as much as I love it just had to go...for now. I'll bring it! soon enough.

Just a quick reminder if you would like a way to exercise and find walking for the hour or so required to make you sweat, as I'm attempting, boring, try something more fun like this here.
