I bought an exercise ball last summer. I think I’ve used it five times. A couple of months ago, I put it in my bedroom floor between my bed and bookcase so I’d see it every day and remember to use it.
But you know when you put something in a particular place as a reminder, then it becomes another part of your space so you completely forget about it? It might as well be a staple item just like my bed and bookcase.
So now I have a new plan. I wrote “EXERCISE BALL!” in big block letters on a pink post-it and stuck it right beside my alarm clock. If I run into the same problem, I’m thinking about taping it to the bathroom mirror. … Right where my face should be so there’s no way to overlook it.
In other news, I talked to Mamaw a few weeks ago and she was telling me about her prayer group. She teaches a Sunday school class and has a sort of "prayer chain" going with the church ladies. When I called, she almost didn't pick up and told me she was afraid it would be another lady wanting to talk for three hours. I found it amusing.
By the way, if you haven't noticed, this entry is quite a bit shorter than normal. Here's another thought I've had: if I make them shorter, maybe I'll be more consistent and actually update this more. Is it too late to make another New Year's resolution?
