Ok, a little while back I posted about trying to get in shape with our XBOX Kinect. Here is my update to it. I’m not gonna do it….lol. I have never enjoyed working out…it bores the crap out of me. I love playing XBOX, but the games I mostly like on this Kinect (that we have anyway) are golf, bowling, & darts. You only have to use your arms on them so it might be tough to get in shape. There are some fun games besides that we have but they do take alot of energy. Track n Field…you really have to run in place to make your person run. Same thing with baseball…if you don’t hit a homerun, you have to run to first base. It’s great if you want to do what I said…I’m just not into it. I made the post hoping it would make me stick to it, but I would rather throw some darts, bowl, or shoot a 6 under in golf & drink my beer. Sorry, it has taken me so long to update you on nothing. If any of you decide to try this…let me know how you do. I wish you all the luck & really hope it works for you. Til next time peeps…

For a while now I have been trying to think of a good weekly feature to do on here. I tried the “Movie Review” thing, but don’t get to watch movies the way I used to so it just kinda fell to the wayside. I have decided to try this…I know we all get stuck, in a funk, or writer’s block from time to time. So, on each Wednesday I’m gonna try to post an idea for you to take & use. I might come up with some good things that would be tough for me, but some of you may be able to run with it. I don’t mean you have to wait til Wednesday to write your post (do it whenever you feel it)…just check back here each Wednesday if you get stuck to look for something new. I may or may not participate, just really want to give out ideas. I would like for you to come back here to the post you get the idea from & leave a comment with a link to your post so all of my readers can come check it out.

I wanted to give you all an update on our little son. He was born last Wednesday morning & he was right at 4 weeks early. He is in great shape, but had 2 little spots on his lungs that weren’t fully developed so he is still in the hospital. He’s doing really good & hopefully coming home tomorrow or Friday. The doc said last week by New Years. Just wanted to fill you all in & that’s why I am having to do this from my phone again (haven’t been back to work yet) & that’s where I do all my posting from. Anyway…let’s get to it.
Week 11 idea.. Tell a story about a day in your life from the viewpoint of your pet. Dog/cat/bird…whatever you have. If you don’t have one…make up one & tell what you think they would be saying during the day watching you.

This post will not look like the normal weekly feature because I am having to make it from my phone & can’t copy the original. It will be next week before I can get back to a computer…I have been in the hospital since about midnight last night as my lovely wife gave birth to our 1st son at 6:36 this morning. We are still here & I didn’t want to let all of you lovely people down so I’m still gonna throw out an idea for you. Thought of it last night before all of this went into action. Sorry for the cheaper look of the post. Til next time peeps…
Week 10 Idea…Have you ever watched a movie that made you think about totally changing your life up because it looked & sounded good in the movie? You know…move to a small little town & open a general store or something? Just anything…tell us what you thought of doing.
Getting In Shape With Xbox Kinect

We have had the Xbox Kinect since it came out. It is alot fun, but will wear you out. For those of you that may not know…it’s the newest video console game where you play without any controllers…you are the controller. You just move your body like you were actually doing whatever you are playing. Our youngest 2 girls really like playing & it’s so much fun playing with them. Anyway…my wife Krista saw a story where a woman lost some weight playing it so much a week instead of her normal workout. I just thought of trying this today to give me something else to write about on here. Now, I’m not a very big guy (never have been)…I’m 5 ’9 & 165lbs. I do however have too much of a gut than I want & would like to be able to do yard work without getting sore. Plus I’m 42 now & have a new son coming next month…will need some energy. I also figured that if I post this…maybe it will make me stick to it to keep you all updated. We play now, but not so many times a week & may go a month without playing at all. We play bowling the most. track & field, volleyball, boxing, & the Adventures game will kick your butt. We are getting season 2 of the sports game tomorrow. I know it has football, skiing, golf, darts & baseball I think…not sure exactly.
I’m planning on maybe even keeping up with what games we play each time & for how long to give you all better info. I guess it all depends on how much work that might be. Not sure if I will update you every week or every other week. Let me see how it goes. I don’t know how much I will lose, but will try really hard for all of you & for me. I have always been bored with working out so I never stuck to it. These games are fun, so it should help me stick to it & get my old butt in shape. I really enjoy playing with the girls anyway…so it’s a “win win” right? Check back to see what happens….this could be really funny. Til next time peeps…
