Can you guess what this is????

First things first… We have a brand new blog!  Yeah… Thank you Jared for all your hard work and coding and all that stuff you do to make things so functional.  I heart my new matching blog with great big images!

Now on to the image… Can you guess what this is???  If you guessed a pool noodle, you are almost right.  If you guess a pool noodle tied into a pretzel, you are getting closer.  If you guess a work out tool… DING DING DING!  You win!  Sorry… there is no prize, just bragging rights!

Let me explain.  My Aunt Shirley came to visit and she teaches water aerobics in Indy.  So we had our own private water aerobics class in the backyard.  At first I was thinking this would be cake… Uh… Well.. Not so much.  One of the things I learned was that if you tie a pool noodle into a pretzel, you can use it as a dumbbell in the water.   So you basically hold onto this thing and push it into the water using different methods, arms straight out or bending at the elbows, etc.  (I’m no instructor, bare with me!) And after several reps, I was actually a little sore.  So I am a believer… You can do more than float and drink margaritas in the pool!
