Do What You Love Challenge

By , May 16, 2011

I count myself to be extremely lucky in the friend department. Seriously, I have some of the most amazing friends around, they always inspire me with the awesome things they are doing with their lives. One friend in particular is always living life to the fullest, and this dear friend recently pointed me to the 120 Day Do What You Love Challenge.

When I saw her post about starting the challenge, I knew that I had to join the fun. What could be better than spending everyday for 120 days doing something you love to do? Of course, the challenge is to narrow it down to just one thing, and that was the hard part for me. There are many things that I love to do! And recently I had been thinking about some of the things I really enjoy doing but haven’t really done in a long time too. Kismet perhaps?

My choice for the challenge is to dance everyday. For today, day one of my challenge, I took advantage of a warm spot in an otherwise chilly day and went outside with my hula hoop and headphones! It was really fun, and it felt great to just get in the hoop and play around for a bit. Even despite feeling truly awful the past few days, just getting out and moving was such fun.

Speaking of headphones, my most favorite pair bit the dust recently and I need to replace them. Ear buds don’t work for me, I need the good old fashioned kind that go on top of the ear. Any suggestions for awesome headphones?

This should be a fun challenge, and I will try to update my progress on the blog from time to time too. What would you choose to do each day for 120 days?

Inspiration For Fun

After the first time seeing the video above, I knew that my husband and I just had to learn how to do contact juggling. We even each have a ball like the one in the video. Of course we are nowhere even close to being able to do what is done in this video.

It was fun to rediscover this though, as an inspiration for having a lot more fun! We need to break out our balls and practice some more. Practice, practice, practice! That is what it would take to become even half as good as the talented gent in the video.

What new hobbies are you exploring?

Get Off Your Bum!

Just a little reminder to get off your bum and go do something fun! Check out this infographic about how “Sitting is Killing You”. I have been meaning to post it ever since I first saw it because it’s an important reminder.

Now, get up and go have some fun this weekend!

Moving on up!

To the top… to a deluxe apartment in the sky! Oh moving on up!!

OK, so our fish aren’t exactly The Jeffersons, but they have successfully moved to their larger aquarium. They really aren’t sure what to make of all the space, but as soon as we put a little food in for them they seemed to warm right up to the place.

As I said before, hard to photograph. Always on the move (as it should be), but this is a fairly good shot. Once they get more settled I will attempt more photos, but they have a lot of exploring to do first! :)
