well, today, while stretching, I was able to touch my toes!
whoo-hoo!
yes, that is an accomplishment for me. for years (well, pretty much my entire life), my hamstrings have always been very tight. no matter what I did (soccer, t-ball, football, or dance class....yes, I took dance classes. modern and jazz), I never could get my hamstrings loose enough to touch my toes.
so I took up the mission. at least once a day, I would do 3 to 4 stretches (bend over, try to touch my toes) for a 20 count. and today, I was able to touch them while stretching!
next step: being able to get my hands on the floor! eventually, I want to be able to get my palms flat against the floor while stretching!
well, time to eat and work. all sorts of ideas bubbling in my head for assignments! this could be fun!
