Goals have led me to need to shave my legs.

I stopped shaving my legs in mid October. That is right, I haven't shaved them in about three months. My legs basically looked like they belonged to a 14 year old boy. I could even feel the breeze blowing in my leg hairs when I would walk. Some of you may be saying gross and too much information or but didn't I see you in skirts over the last few months. Well, I typically don't shave in the winter because I'm wearing pants and it is fun to see just how hairy they can get. Yes, I did wear skirts along with my knee high black boots so you couldn't see those hairy legs. No, Jeremy doesn't really mind and I don't show them in public. What brought on the momentous occasion? Zumba is kicking my butt!!! I thought I could just wear my cute new work out pants but they are just not going to work for this work out. I will be needing to show off the legs and they need to be shaved.

Shaving my legs was one of my goals but I wasn't going to do it till I was able to get into my cute little red dress. While doing my Christmas shopping I came across a very sexy red dress, a date night dress. I thought, "isn't that pretty. I would be so cool to be able to pull off a dress like that, maybe some day." and I walked to the check out counter and when he started ringing up my purchases I ran back and grabbed that hot dress in one size smaller then I currently wear and bought it too. I hung that baby in my closet and it sits waiting for a nice dinner date night with my honey. My goal, to look damn hot in that dress.

My mom is in her early 50s and running 5ks 10ks and I think even one half marathon. She started running about 2 years ago and she is doing awesome. She has been such an inspiration and if she can do it so can I. I hated running when I was younger, I hated P.E. and I did golf in high school because you don't run in golf. I am determined to get myself running, enjoying running, and running 5 and 10k's regularly with my mom and sisters.

For now and hour of Zumba 3 nights a week and elliptical or walk/running twice a week is my goal and well actually a requirement.
