Wii CHRISTMAS

I actually did research on this Christmas present. It was NOT a whim. First it was to be something that Bill and I could do together. Second, it had to be active. I consulted reviews. I consulted a knowledgeable person at Best Buy (Yes, they DO have very helpful people there. And personable. And well informed.) Also, I consulted my grandson, Jon. Hands down the winner is Wii.

And then Bill's son gifted us with Wii Fit Plus. I am now sore in places that I didn't know existed. My big mistake was trying out some "fitness" moves that were well beyond my ability. I have now moved into a plan that might be more beneficial -- building balance, coordination, and strength.

This is the beginning of my ten minutes a day until I get a little bit more fit. I would like my fitness age to be less that 72. Well, yes, I AM 72, my fitness doesn't have to match that. Wonder what my fitness would be if my intelligence and mental alertness were being measured? Not goin' there. Not now anyway. Get the bod in shape first.
