Where to begin? I have been inspired!
Gulf Wars was just last week, and I met (and got reacquainted with) many very cool folks who reminded me that just because I am over 40 doesn't mean I am dead--- or even 2/3 of the way there.
I am inspired. Maybe even a little crazy....
It is way past time for me to get back in shape and healthy, and what better way to do it than to get back into heavy fighting again? I need to lose a significant amount of weight anyway, and make pretty much all new armor. I am sure at this point that none of the armor that I had the last time I got armored up (has it really been 15 years?!? Pretty darn close...) will pass inspection, and this is assuming that it is even serviceable.
And so the journey begins. Irina and Angharad have been trying to get me to join the Eowyn Challenge, and while I really don't plan to join that, I am going to start walking. Went out and bought myself a pedometer, and Angharad has a treadmill she wants to give to me. I live on a highway without a sidewalk, so there is no place for me to walk. It will be so much better than just sitting there.
