Everyday a little better...

Guten Morgen, have started my day watching a morning show that informed all of Deutschland that Booty Shaking is the next dance phase..scary, scary thought. That, however prompted me to turn off the TV and prepare a healthy veggie soup for us for dinner tonight..why?? you ask am I fixing soup for dinner at 0630? Number 1 because I may just venture out of the house today and number 2 because things like soup and chili taste better a while after they have been prepared, not immediately. My mind has been turning more and more towards planning a visit to the Chatanooga area..Matthias and I both miss what the city had to offer, not to mention the friends we have there. The sun is once more playing hide and seek this morning..it is supposed to be cold through today and starting a warming trend tomorrow, maybe that is why the warm South has been on my mind so much..the weather..being able to wear season appropriate clothing and being outdoors more often than not. Have been hitting the treadmill pretty hard over the last few days, staying on for no less than 45 minutes at a time and following the run up with floor exercises such as crunches, push ups, arm curls, and yes..you can totally laugh here..booty exercises...;D I must say with all that has been occuring in our lives, me being at home for more than a couple of days, and my increase in physical activity I have been crashing and burning every evening..my normal go to bed time is 2015 but over the past few days I am really having a hard time making it past about 1930 without passing out on the couch..I feel that is my body's way of recovering from what has been going on..seeking a sense of balance..not always go go go push harder. 
The flower bulbs that we planted in the fall are trying to come out full force..the tulips are waiting..like me for the sun..maybe tomorrow, will post some pics of them when they make a showing.
