HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

As we are about to head into the New Year, I want to thank all of my family, sponsors, members and fans who have supported me on my fitness journey over the last few years. I really couldn't have done it without all of your support....Thanks!!
My website will continue to provide frequent updates with new and unseen material. One of my new years resolutions is to update my journal entry on a more frequent and consistent basis and I will try my best to respond to all of your emails...That one will be tough, but I promise to do my best!!!! Within the next month or so, Dennis and I will be setting up the webcam.... Keep checking back for dates and times!!!

Well, I got an invite to the Fitness International/Arnold Classic!!! I am so excited....I have started dieting and am now working on choreographing a new two minute fitness routine. The Arnold Classic will be taking place on March 3-5th 2006 in Columbus Ohio....if you are attending, please bring your loudest cheering voices!!!! I will be video taping my pre-comp training for the Arnold's.....

Dennis and I have been presented with an opportunity to become more involved with Watsons Fitness. Dennis and I are now running the health centre and will be hosting many seminars. We are very excited to become involved with this project and have some "BIG" plans for this club. Check out their website at www.watsonsfitness.com
We have been pretty much living at the club preparing for the 2006 season.....we will have tons of video clips coming out of this club on my site.....

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas!! I enjoyed spending quality time with all of my family. We spent Christmas eve day in Toronto at Dennis's relatives. We played some poker ( i attempted too, but I suck, big time!!!), ate lots of yummy food and sat by the fire and opened our gifts. Alex got totally spoiled!!! On Christmas day, Alex got up at 5am to open gifts... Alex was so excited and couldn't wait to start ripping all of his gifts open!! He makes Christmas so enjoyable.....we than went to my fathers in St. Catharines, than headed on over to my Grandparents and then off to my moms house for dinner. I love going home to my mom's house....the food always tastes so much better!!! We headed home at around 10pm and got home at 11pm and went to bed....what an exhausting day!!! December 26th is Dennis's Birthday, so we spent the day at home. We played some board games, watched a movie, Dennis and Alex ate pizza and some other junk, and we just chilled at home all day. It was great!!!

I guess that's it for now. OH, in February I will start filming all of my workouts and will be putting together a DVD with my good friend Doug Schneider. I will keep you all posted when it is complete and ready for sale.

I want to wish you all a very safe and Healthy, Happy New Year!!!!

Love Mindi O
