I have been feeling the strong need for something to do lately that has nothing to do with my children. I don't want a job. But I am restless. My almost 2 year old is making me insane and I really need to get out of the house and clear my head and work out every day so I can do it all again the next day. I have been exercising regularly for over a year now after a 3 year lazy spell and I want to channel it towards something I can wrap my brain around a little. Does that make sense?

I don't want to play tennis. My dh plays at a very high competitive level and he loves the game and is teaching ds to play. It just isn't my thing and honestly the tennis moms at my neighborhood club just aren't the ladies I want to hang out with. I am a yoga wannabe and I always think I am going to love yoga and I try it and it makes me SO bored. Can't do it. I have done classes in the past like spinning and body pump (weight training and cardio all in one) and they are okay, but I want to really focus on something that isn't in a gym and it would be great if it meant good cardio. Running isn't my thing either because I have asthma so I can't do the breathing thing for long spells like you need to with running. So what can I do? I am going to do a round of boot camp classes starting in August and I am always trying new things to make sure I get a good workout. I just would like to find something that is so fun I want to keep doing it and get better and better at it.

Anyone have some suggestions for me?

I all about the sports!!!!

Try co-ed Badminton or ladies' Volleyball. Those are typically positive and a LOT of fun.

Maybe try something more challenging: curling or lacrosse or martial arts???? Could be fun to try something new and to kcik somoene's butt!!

What about kick boxing? I have done Pilates & it really challenges me. See if there is a co-ed softball team that you could join.
