Hitting the gym

So I have a little confession to make. . . I have never ever been to the gym before. Like really. I've done sports and the wii fit, but never the actual gym. So Dex decided to get fit for a job he's applying for and I decided to be supportive by getting fit with him. So now I have been to the gym twice and yesterday, I lifted weights for the first time. Um, maybe that wasn't such a good idea. Dexter can bench press like 130 pounds and do about 30 reps. Then I get on and painfully struggle through 10 reps at 15 lbs. The girls on the stepping machines were trying not to laugh. So I decided to show them up on the steps. Why do stepping machines move at like 30 mph? I got thrown off. Seriously! So after about 45 mins of me embarrassing myself and beating myself up, I collapsed by the lockers and prayed no one would notice. Which means, of course, someone from my ward comes up and asks if I need help. No thanks, I just need to be invisible.

The gym is not really my thing. But it is Dexter's. And I love him. And, truth is, I've felt really good since I've started going. So I am going back-oh dear.

Blogging

So I've never really been into this whole blogging thing. I mean I've tried before, but never got into it. Each past attempt has melted into cyberspace oblivion since I didn't keep it up. But I routinely look at other people's blogs. I've been following them through Facebook. And I realized that it might be easier to follow them through blogger. So here I am. And maybe, just maybe, Dex and I will blog about us. Who knows?
