About Me

I am a not yet 55 year old woman married for 25+ years, 4 kids, 1 dog and 1 cat. The kids are beginning to leave home. One is launched, one is in college and 2 are still at home. As a couple we are entering the final stage of our parenting journey: the teenage years and beyond. We are starting to dream and think and plan for those years when the house is quiet and it is just us once again. Please join me as I explore what it means to grow older with adventure and grace.

WIi, Wii, Wii for Me, Me, ME Week 2

I have lost a pound. I have spent a little less than 4 hours over the last week or so playing on the Wii. I  like the yogi moves and the balance games.

There only down side is I can't reset the leader boards. The kids have dominated the top spots and I get bummed at always being in 5th or 6th place.

A nice feature for the next release of Wii Fit would be the option to have group leader boards or individual ones. Another nice feature would be to be able to program a series of exercises so I don't waste time stopping and starting as I do the yogi or strength training exercises.

The toughest game for me is the soccer header game in aerobics. The goal of the game is to hit with your head  as many of the soccer balls as you can, avoiding the soccer shoes and panda heads to score the most points. I know my head is not going to make contact with the ball flying at me from the screen but I still duck anyway.  My score is dismal.

I am still having fun!
