Good Morning Dear Blog Friends. How are you today? Today I woke up feeling like I was on the verge of something new and exciting.

It’s  not starting out that way though.

This morning I hinted to my husband that I might want to start running with him. Now he did 30 km for fun yesterday so I don’t mean that kind of running but just around the block or so. I haven’t figured out yet if I just want the cool running shoes or I really want to do it. Time will tell on that one.

Thinking I should start thinking about exercise last week I came across this box that my friend Kaleigh gave me when she was clearing out stuff. It is an Ab slide. Now when I opened I don’t think she used it much as it was still in its packaging and I had to put it together. I’m not judging at all because it has sat in our house for a year already too. After what happened to me though I’m kind of glad she didn’t use it.

This morning I was about to jump in the shower when I spotted it. So I put down a pillow for my knees on the carpet and tried to use it. I’m sure it wasn’t pretty as I was naked but no one was home so no harm. I got in the groove…once….twice…three times then all hell broke loose. Somehow the silly thing got stuck when I tried to push it and I went flying over it with the momentum of my push and my face went smack into the carpet, my glasses went flying and my right cheek took the brunt of it making a huge rug burn.

Once I realized what happened and the shock wore off I started to laugh hysterically at how funny the whole situation was. All I could think about as I was rolling on the ground laughing like a mad woman was “you really have to stop asking for blog material”.

I didn’t look at my face as I was a little nervous so I had my shower and then looked in the mirror. Oh my there is a big scratch on my face and a red mark down it from the rug. I’m thinking I have some “splaining” to do when my husband gets home and the funny part is he will totally believe me as funny things happen to me all the time. (Since confirmed he said “you look like the outlaw Josey Wales”.)

So  that’s my exercise for the day. Who invents these things? Maybe they have a little video camera in them that activates on use and they all sit around and watch them. I was thinking though if I had a camera on me, and of course I was dressed, that clumpsy mishap of mine would have made me millions on YouTube.

I knew there was going to be trouble in the karma department when I let out a giggle when the lady went flying off the treadmill on The Biggest Loser.
