I bought the domain name through google sites...I have done this many times before.  Surprise I set up a google site and I can't get the domain name to forward to it.  I must be smarter than this....I have done the same exact thing before!  It is just maddening!  Almost as upsetting as losing my spaces blogs, they disappeared into cybersdeath....forever gone.  Although, I suppose I shouldn't despair yet!  I still have time to defeat this monster and make it bend to my will!

Gotta be happy this Thanksgiving!  God has blessed us with another Thanksgiving AND with great friends AND family.  I will post some photos later.  I just had to permanently record how happy I am at this moment.  Happy, full of food and sitting quietly with my husband while he watches the cowgirls play.

40+ year old women can be strong, fit and beautiful.  All it takes is motivation and a goal.  Amazing women abound, these are women who have gotten off the couch and left the bonbons on the counter!  These are the women over the age of 40 who love Crossfit as much as I do.

I met a couple of these women last year at Crossfit Champions in Tomball's Oktoberfect Obliteration II, last year.  The master's division for this competition was 45-54.  Angie Bender and Betty Smith are wonderful Crossfit Athletes who show us how to be tough and beautiful!  This year they were back again along with some more women who were reaching out and trying something competitive, some for the first time.  Christy Hoffman is such a beautiful strong woman she placed second this year and really pushed me to do my best.  I met Nellyn Laurel at Crossfit 1525's Barbell's for Boobs Fundraiser.  Nellyn was definitely out of her comfort zone, and she put it all out there and worked hard during each workout!

Beautiful Crossfitters Over the age of 40- Stacy, Tina, Martha and Fay

This past weekend, I met several women at a competition in Tomball.  Watching these women inspires me to keep it up!  One woman Tina, has only been doing Crossfit for 4 months!  She signed up to compete in the scaled woman's division.  She has an amazing positive outlook and an infectious smile.  She struggled with the weights but worked through and finished every WOD.  Martha Flanagan was the only woman in the Masters 50+ division.  Her enthusiastic attitude and good Crossfitting skills helped her get through these tough workouts! Martha, her coaches and fellow Crossfitter Stacy Fitts are all from Mt. Pleasant, TX.  Neither Stacy nor Martha had ever competed before.  Stacy is very strong, beautiful and developing into a great Crossfit athlete.  Congratulations!  You two were great!  Thank you for coming to this competition, getting to know you was the best part of the whole weekend!

I hope that meeting these women through me will inspire someone one else in their 40s to 50s to get up and try Crossfit.  You start out with scaled weights and movements.  As you build strength and endurance you will be amazed at what you can do!  Each of us has a story, come visit a Crossfit Box and talk to someone "our" age.  You will find that we all started our fitness journeys in different places but the one thing you will find that we all have in common is that we have all come to love CROSSFIT!

Cool front came through on Thursday evening...it has left us with lovely weather!  We left early, had breakfast at I-Hop, moved on to "good" coffee at Starbucks, and the to Party City to look for some Halloween items.  Ross was stranded at the Box so we got there early, and did some stretching.  We ended up doing two great workouts.  Ross, Elyse, David and I ate lunch at Armanis.  When we got back to the house Jon And Z wanted to check out the Rustic Oak Carnival.  They ran, David and I walked over and back again.  Saw some folks that we know!  It is always great to get out on a beautiful day!

Who am I? What am I trying to prove? Where am I going? Who is going with me?

You are judged by lots of criteria in life, most of it is subjective because it is our peers who judge us. One of the things that people look at is your associates. Who do you hang with, what are they like, are they likable? I hang with Crossfitters, people involved with PTA and scouts, and people who are on the Keep Pearland Beautiful Board. BUT The person I am most proud to hang with is ...
