Sedona Fit

I am so grateful for my local gym!  I just got back from today's workout and it now feels good to be working out, gaining muscle, and losing weight.  My clothes are fitting better and I'm stronger than I've been in a while.  In addition, I'm starting to have fewer back problems and can go much longer between chiropractic adjustments.  I'm not so exhausted after my workouts any more and other things are less of a strain, as well.

For instance, on Friday, two guys were here to deliver and install my new washer and dryer.  My kiln had an accident a while back and has been sitting on the floor because it is way too heavy for me to move alone.  (I had contacted someone who was referred to me who could bring some guys over to help, but never heard back from him.)  Since the delivery guys were bragging about how strong they were, I asked them to put the back on its table.  One of the guys had no problem lifting his end, but the other guy looked like he was going to drop his side.  So, I rushed over, caught the bottom of the kiln and helped him to lift it onto the table where it belonged.  No stress, no strain, no back stress, no nothing.  And, I even got to tease the guy about needing a woman to help him...

To put this in perspective, the kiln is so heavy that when it originally arrived, the electrician called two of his buddys over to help him carry it from where it was delivered to the table where it was going, and they still almost dropped it while they were picking it up from carrying position to lift it up to table height.  Granted, this time I only had to come in for the last minute save to help lift it the last six inches or so.  Still, it felt pretty darn good to be able to do that with no stress or strain.  So, I give plenty of kudos to my stretch class teacher, Katherine, as well as to Wally, the owner of the gym and my trainer.

And the bonus is that I got the first load of glass into my kiln on Sunday and it is finished its fusing and annealing and is cooling down as I type.  I should be able to open the kiln to check out my new goodies in an hour or two.  So, I get to be playing with glass again after a long hiatus!  It feels good to want to be creating again, so I feel extra blessed by that extra strength that I now possess.
