My body feels great even though most mornings I wake up sluggish. I just need to get the blood circulating through my body for everything to start feeling loose. I don’t know that I like the feeling of being achy all over but, I do like the feeling of being fit. I wonder if it’s a certain type of addiction. After all, exercise does give me a high.

It seems like many people are going through a rough time these days. But, I can say with certainty that despite our recession, we in this country have it better than most of the world.
