It’s time for another Feel Good Friday.
So, a curious thing happened last week. I was all finished posting the FGF, and I was feeling pretty great, smug even, when I saw it. The infamous exercise video. Apparently I’d been living under a rock because I had not seen it yet, even though it was probably “all the rage” and most of you will be all “I saw this last month.“
Regardless, I proceeded to watch this video. Over and over again. Its mystique and power pulled me in. And, perhaps, informed this Feel Good Friday a little too much? You decide.
Happy Friday.
