New Year...new me? Not when it comes to Facebook Theater and social media. The week between Christmas and New Year's Day was full of the usual sturm und drang (that's Monaghan using what little he remembers of his high school German; it basically means "storm and stress") that you see pretty much every other day.
Think of this as the Morning Jolt's answer to an episode of Jerry Springer in that unless we're using something you posted on your own social media, you can take heart in knowing that you're not as messed up as these people are.
FACEBOOK THEATER
- A young guy at work asked me if I’m ready for the new year. I’m 52 yrs old, connor. I just turned down my radio so I can see better. I’m not even ready for today, let alone another 365 days of this nonsense.
- Ah...New Year's resolutions! Will I stop posting inappropriate memes? Will I work on not cussing? Will I finally stop laughing at sexual innuendoes like a 15 year old boy? Will I stop s**t posting? Tune in tomorrow for the first episode of “absolutely f***ing not”
- Woke up New Year's Day morning expecting a raging headache. My husband said, “wanna know why your head doesn’t hurt so bad? Your last several gin and tonics I ordered for you were just water.”
Mike’s Favorite Exercises To Help Jump Start Getting Healthier
2024 is here. And with it comes the chance to make a great year for yourself! You can use this new Year as almost a reset button, to start your life over. Or you can simply use it to resolve two for things you want to accomplish or change this year. There are many popular resolutions that people have each year, but I think one is the ultimate winner – “I want to get in shape this year!” So, I figured, we could take a look at 5 simple exercises to help jump start getting healthier!”
Keep in mind – I am NOT A PHYSICIAN! So, before starting any exercise routine or doing any exercises, even simple ones, speak to your doctor first!
That said, the holidays are behind us. And many of us probably indulged or over-indulged on cookies, candy, and a few big dinners that may have added on a couple of extra pounds. But why start now? Well, the beginning of the year gives us a good point of reference to look back on at the end of 2024 to see how far we’ve come on our journey.
Also, Summer will be here fairly soon (time sure does fly). And we all would love to at least feel comfortable on the beach or by the swimming pool. So, starting a few regular exercises can help tone us, get us healthier cardiovascular-wise, and give us some confidence for when we have on our bathing suit.
I’m not saying we all need six-pack abs or have to look like supermodels on the cover of fitness magazines. But wouldn’t it be nice to not feel self-conscious when you change into your swimwear?
Again, I AM NOT A DOCTOR. I can’t stress that enough. So, before you start doing these exercises, speak to your physician first.
