Fridays

I have to say that Friday is the best day of the week! No matter what is going on there is always something magical and special about Friday. On this particular Friday evening we are enjoying a family game of Carnival Games Mini Golf on the Wii.

Lazy Saturdays

Well, it rained today, or should I say STORMED! Needless to say we were stuck inside most of the afternoon. So, the Wii was on and bowling was the game! I won two games against my sweety. I am sure my streak won't last too long, and before I know it I will be back in the losers column. Until another day........

Doctors

Okay, Scotty had his yearly physical today and might I mention that this is TWO hours of our life that will be lost forever. There is a sign that encourages you to tell the charge nurse if you have not been seen within 30 minutes of your scheduled appointment. Well, we had been waiting for 45+ minutes and Paige is hounding me to do as the sign says-------so I do and what happens when I stick my head out: I almost collide with the doctor; or should I say resident (this is a university town with a medical school!). Anyway she is asking Scotty about exercise and controlling his blood sugar. Of course she is amazed that he is logging 2 hours a day, but he does and most of that is using Wii Fit and the Wii EA Active. Throw in swimming and bike riding and you have at least 2 hours!

Next they insist on giving me an updated shot record read below for errors:
  • The first one has his sister listed as his parent
  • The second one has me listed as the parent, but with a different last name
  • The third one has my last name spelled wrong

Needless to say when I point out the 3rd mistake the nurse replies, "Well, we are using too many of these shot records today. " She takes a black pen and writes over the misspelled last name. All the while acting like this whole thing is my fault. Did I mention that I do not even need this shot record?

Let's just say that the Wii is also great for relieving stress that is left over from the days events :-)!!

Active Sports

This is one heckuva game!! You will burn calories and enjoy it while you workout. It is one great workout!!

First Day of Summer Vacation

Well, today was the first day of summer vacation for the kids and I. Scotty logged 2 hours of exercise on Wii Fit, and swam for at least an hour! Exercise helps lower his blood sugar, so the pay off in the long one is a good one! Paige and I went swimming. I also logged 47 minutes on Wii Fit "Yea me!" For those of you who know me exercise is a constant work in progress, but I am much improved! Right now it seems like a blessing to have over 2 months off, but I am sure we will be bored soon enough! Plus, I am in between jobs right now, so............ Check back tomorrow for another update! :-)

See ya- Tracy

One Day at a Time

Well, I have to say that after completing my customized workout on Wii Active that my body is quit sore! The work outs are fun, and the cardio really gets your heart pumping! Now, like with any exercise program it takes time, requires patience, and effort on my part. With that being said I work on taking it "one day at a time". It is definately a game that the whole family can get into--no matter what your age or activity level is.
