Do you have you a workout habit? When I practiced law in Dallas, I got up at 4:30. got my coffee at 4:45 and at 5:00 AM I entered Cooper Aerobics Fitness Center to work out. I loved that habit because I felt energized when I got to work and I missed the morning rush hour traffic.

I no longer have the workout habit, but I need to get it back. Last week my orthopedic surgeon and I decided I would get hip replacement surgery. Because I won’t be able to travel for sometime thereafter, I have scheduled it for December.
