What in the world?

So...as usual, after eating Christmas cookies and other yummy seasonal treats, my jeans have shrunk.

And as usual, I decided that I needed to do some exercise so they will fit again.

This year I actually went beyond thinking about it and got to work. I snuck off to my room to try to avoid an audience. Alas...the kids' radar signaling Mom-has-left-our-space went off. Since my kids won't even let me use the bathroom alone, they quickly gathered to watch the spectacle.

"Mom! WHAT are you doing?" they asked incredulously.

It's like they have never seen anyone exercise before.

Gah!

I tried to sneak away tonight but they crowded around, trying to mimic my every move and collapsing in gales of laughter.

It doesn't do a lot for a girl's confidence, I tell ya!
