Having skillfully and successfully avoided the gym all morning, I thought I would ask you all this question while I am loading my mp3...

When you exercise, clean, go for walks, whatever, what music gets your blood pumping?

My kids roll their eyes, my husband teases me...but lately, my guilty musical pleasure is Fergie...there is just something about the idea that one day I too may be fergielicious that gets me moving...Fergie, Pink, and Lose Yourself by Eminem works well too...and always Bonnie Tyler - Hero (or whatever its called). Those seem to be my staples, then I mix in my faves of the week...

Alright, I mean it, I am really going to the gym right now!!! Just look at me go! I am leaving any minute! Yup, I am almost gone...

And did you 'went'? And was it good?

They play music at my gym, and I am the age where I think 'Golden Oldies' are 'Top 40'...so there are songs I only hear at the gym...one I like is 'Breathe'. Lots I have absolutely NO IDEA what the words are...but as I said, I am not too hip!

Of course I went...but I left shortly after...you see, I am gym hunting right now...I used to have a gym I loved more than anything but then I moved and originally thought I would be fine exercising at home, on my gazelle and with weights (2 hours a day! UGH!) but successfully gained 7 pounds...so back to the gym...and the one yesterday was horrible...so once again, I am going to yet another gym to hopefully find one I like...

It is so important to find the right gym. I absolutely love mine, and I liked it the very first time I went. If I had to change now, it would be really hard because I definitely feel like it is 'mine'.

Hope you find 'yours'.
