First of December has been and gone - it's already the 10th! I promised myself that I would post a reminder on my blog every month about taking the time to do a breast self-examination. Early detection CAN save lives.Won't you take just two minutes right now and do a BSE. I just did mine, it really doesn't take that long. We all get so busy at this time of year, and to be honest even when it's not the Holidays I've often put off doing a BSE for months. It doesn't take long, it's not something we should keep putting off to another day!
2008 is going to be a year I really start taking care of myself. You know, when you're in your 20's and even your 30's really looking after yourself isnt' something you conciously think of, it just seems to naturally happen. I mean, the grey hairs aren't there so you don't have to 'cover' them... the lines around the eyes aren't there, so you don't go out deliberately buying creams to keep the lines from getting worse! You feel fitter (even though you don't exercise regularly) you eat what you like thinking you'll always be the same weight! You don't bother taking vitimins ..... and a BSE? what's that?!! This is how I've been thinking for the past 10 years or so, but now that I'm heading in to my mid 40's, looking nice, staying slim, feeling fit ...... it is all a lot more hard work than it was a decade ago. I'm slowly making healthy changes. You can keep track of what those changes are on my fit blog

Hi Denise! Love the photo of Kristen when she was one! She's definitely a cutie alright! Those Santa hats are so cute.
Yes, it's more work to stay young and fit but I know I feel the same as I always did. Use it or lose it is really true! (((Hugz)))
Hi Denise! What a darling picture of Kristen! Thanks for the reminder about BSE. Enjoy your evening. ((BIG HUGS))
Hi Denise...what a darling picture of Kristen! I can't wait to see the new one for this year. Yes, it's harder work to stay fit as we get older, but the payoff is incredible. Nothing beats being healthy & fit - looking it & feeling it. I loved your fitness blog, & I REALLY loved your reward for those 10 pounds you want to lose! Have a wonderful week...hugs!
gorgeous photo of K, she was an adorable baby :O)
Just a quick note from me too. Popped your card AND YOUR MAG!! in the post this morning. Hoping you get them before Christmas, but if not, ah well, I tried!! ;o)
have a great day. I'm snaffling one of those cookies on the way out xxx
Hi sweetie,
You are absolutely right, so much more effort now to keep us looking half decent ha ha... if only we didn't have gravity working against us also!
I look forward to seeing the Christmas photo you ended up using. So do you have a remote control for your camera also so you can just step away from the tripod? My camera has one of those and they really are great for group shots. Mind you, I forget to take them very often but I should.
S-i-l Jason has a position at a hospital in Detroit MI so they will be moving there in June. Brrr it gets cold up there.
Hope you have a great week.
Lots of hugs, Julie xx
