Personal Note and Thought for the Week Find a way to work around it On a Personal Note No more horsing around! These posts are a little delayed for this weekTechnology snafu. So lets get caught up! Happy Monday! Hope you had a nice weekend. Inside my personal note is some Food for Thought for you this week On a Personal Note No more horsing around! As you probably know, I am an avid horseback rider and have been determined to continue riding up to my Dec. 26 due date. Several riders I know were able to ride throughout their pregnancy, so I thought no problem! Ends up, Im just not one of them. Unfortunately, my doctor strongly suggested I stop riding. Riding was my main form of exercise and a great stress reliever. I really didnt want to give up. I had to find a work-around, something that gave me the low impact exercise I need, but didnt require that I completely give up something I love to do. Now I go to the barn, hang out with my pal Lyly, the horse I share, and swim for exercise. Lyly is incredibly clean now-a-days, since I have plenty of time to focus on grooming him! Food for thoughtEven when we think an obstacle seems insurmountable, theres usually a way to work around it. Brainstorm ideas with other people, think out of the box and see what you come up with. Its funny, I have decided to talk to my hubby more about the issues Im struggling with. Talking it out with someone is a great help, hes been a valuable sounding-board. Simple and easy. Have a great week, Hallie
