I really would like to buy a new outfit to wear so I can look all stylish since I'm usually the frumpiest mom on the block, but I also really wanted to lose about 5 or 37 pounds before I bought any new clothes. I'm starting to think that's nevuh gonna happen though. I think I'm like toilet paper, better in bulk. Just call me TP. It also stands for tight pants, which is oh so fitting as well, the title that is, not the pants.....
I really was gonna exercise today. I started looking through the C.D.s for some upbeat praise music to workout to, I just seem to do better if I have some tunes going and thought it would be good to have some praises going up too. Elly walked in and wanted to know if I was gonna play some "Jesus music" whilst I exercised. I said, "Yes, why?" and she said, "Good, Sydney needs to hear it". Yeah, I didn't ask................and I gave up looking. I didn't find anything that seemed fitting. I just can't beebop to Phillips, Craig, & Dean....what do you guys listen to when you exercise?

When I work out (cough, cough - 'cause that happens all the time) I like Wow 2007 CD 2. It seems more of the loud, fast beat stuff is on CD 2 than CD 1 (and they may do that on the other WOW CDs). As for specific artists: Rebecca St. James, Newsboys, BarlowGirl (probably the others on that disk would be good but I don't know enough of their music to say how much of it would be workout music).
Well, when I WAS working out regularly (a couple months ago), I was on a Red kick. Red is pretty heavy rocker type stuff, but it is Christian and it's AWESOME. It's loud. There's a little screaming (musically speaking) and some great piano & violin mixed in with electric guitars and drums. Michael W. Smith's New Hallelujah is another favorite for workouts. And Skillet. And Leeland. I also like Brooklyn Tab - anything they sing always amps me up! Maybe I'm weird in this way, but I like upbeat stuff where the beat of the song can become the rhythm of whatever I'm doing, be it steps on a treadmill or reps while I'm lifting weights. I especially like it when the beats change, because on faster songs, it makes me push harder to keep in step with the faster beat (good for weight loss!)
