Do you think you'll like cheerleading?

My daughter asked me that the other day.  I almost laughed; I've wanted to do this so much, it seemed absurd.  But as we talked about it, she was concerned that I be prepared that it is a lot of work, even though it is fun.

We practiced cartwheels two days ago, but we're on a family vacation and with traveling everyday, I'm finding it really hard to get the exercise.  That, and my spouse keeps feeding me really good food (You deserve it! You're on vacation!), I think I'm going to get home in a couple of weeks having actually gained weight.  Oh, well.  Having attended my first practice, and seen who else is on the team, I'm less concerned about it.  I mean, yes I want to work at this and get good at it, but five extra pounds isn't going to keep me form being a team member, so if I wait until I get back home to really pick up the exercise, it isn't going to kill me...
