So I've been working on helping my mother bail herself out of some crazy flooding in her cellar, she's had since we had that heavy rain a few weeks ago. Well I've been fortunate in the fact that her local fire department was nice enough to supply a pump to help her control the water. Yesterday reached that point where the favor ran thin. So I needed to figure out a way to at least try and control the issue until the water level in the neihborhood went down naturally. See my mother lives in a valley area across from a lake. So she is the lowest point where all the overflowing seems to gather. A losing battle it seems most of the time. But after spending a couple hours in a local Home Depots, and Lowes last night. I think I at least have it so the water can be pumped out and managed till it drys up on its own and doesnt return. What a fun experience! I think our first house will be on stilts!! Hahaha!
On a side note here. I'll tell you those sale people at the home improvement stores can be quite helpful at times. Before I knew it at one I had a carriage full of everything I needed to pump out the Titanic!! Haha! Must of been that lost puppy look I had on my face. It screamed "Here's a sale!!" Needless to say the carriage never left the store. Haha. Good help and effort there though I appreciated that.

I'm now a Blogger!! Ahahahaha!
Hi everyone!
Well I'm going to keep my first entry in my new blog here brief. I think this will be a great way to share the experiences I have with my fitness goals, my personal development, and striving daily to find the right path. For almost 2 years now I have been on a journey to better health and physical conditioning. I have used home workouts and my own weight equipment to reach the goals I have so far. And although I have managed to lose over 70 lbs since I began. I am always looking to make improvement. Because lets face it, Noone is getting any younger. and if you stop your not getting anywhere. I've also enjoyed being a Beachbody coach which simply means I help people that are using their homw workouts like P90x,Turbo Jam, Insanity, etc. And in turn the company allows me to build my own business out of it. It's no free ride by any means, but what really is these days? And I love helping people and seeing them reach their goals as well. And I love the workouts and use them all the time myself anyways. So sharing that experience with others comes easy. And the people I have meet along the way are wonderful! So that's all I have for now. till nexttime.
