The Four Step Plan

I think spring weather gets me itching to be in shape and be more productive and all around a better person. So I am working on four things...1) Exercise more, 2) More time for devotions, 3) Less tv, 4) More fruits and vegetables. Really, #3 is kind of a by product of the first two. If I spend more time doing other things, there's just less time for tv, which tends to happen every year as the weather gets nicer. We spend more time outside and less time on the couch. I've been to the pool a couple times lately and went for an hour long walk today with the pups (they were REALLY tired by the end). I also subscribed to a new little magazine type thing to help give me some focus for daily devotions. It takes you all the way through the bible in two years. I met a guy on jury duty that was using it, and decided it seemed like something I could use. I'm currently reading through Deuteronomy, as well as a psalm and a few verses of proverbs each day. I do much better with a plan, so I'm really liking this. And then there's the vegetables. I just feel like I should eat healthier. I think that some of it is having so many work friends that are very into nutrition. We've definitely come a long way since the first year or two of marriage...I feel like we eat way more fresh stuff and just generally healthy. So I'm trying to get one fruit and one vegetable at both lunch and dinner. It seems like a good start. I'm not planning to do anything crazy like giving up fruit snacks, just adding some carrots and bananas here and there :)
