exercise is not for the faint of heart ...
my version of humour – love to know what you think on this one – I tend to keep alot of my humour to myself for fear of people thinking I’m crazy …

One of them is a really good runner, it doesn’t need any more practice, just some better directions. It frequently gets lost, leaving me in the most unusual of places.
Another is a very poor swimmer, it tends to sink to the bottom of things like a lead weight. This one is getting swimming lessons and some floaties while it learns.
Another thinks it can fly, it’s crazy and is always wanting me to leap off tall buildings. I have told this one repeatedly that I am not superman, but it just won’t listen. Perhaps some kryptonite, if I can figure out what that is.
The final one is a boxer. It wants to fight all of the time, spits alot and is only comfortable when in control. This one is the trickiest to corner. Any suggestions?

Try reasoning with it? :p
Great write. Great concept.
Helen Corr replied
too punchy for that – thought some valium maybe, or perhaps a spell in a detention centre for bad demons! thanks Matt

Give it directions to a roof top swimming pool with the others and let them work it out :))
Helen Corr replied
I lay odds on the boxer then – the swimmer would sink, the jumper jump, and the runner wouldn’t find the place to begin with – lol :-)

Helen Corr replied

Yoga? Aah, intelligent humor is something I can live for. Very nice.
Helen Corr replied
perhaps I could lure them to the gym with promises of boxercise and then the boxer would be too embarressed to back out of the yoga class in front of the others – good idea!

thanks Vanessa – just a bit of fun about living with our demons rather than thinking we have to disown them … after all, they have their good points too – even the boxer – lol!
