I just wanted to make sure that I touched base before I climbed into bed this evening! I am soooo tired!!
I had an hour and a half long belly dancing class tonight by a substitute instructor, and she REALLY kicked our heinies!!! π No, she did a FABULOUS job, but she worked us out from HEAD TO TOE, so I am gonna be ONE SORE MAMMA in the morning!! Scratch that – I AM SORE NOW!!! π
This pic is of me striking a pose!! Paula, one of the other students, was very sweet in offering to take my picture, and I just HAD to jump at the chance! I would have taken more pics, but our class of 6 has somehow managed to dwindle down to a class of two. So that is a bummer, but I am still having a blast.
My focus in class has changed from “Let’s see if I can be brave enough to do something scary”, to “Let’s see what else my body will do if I practice!” It seems like a minor change, but it has really made me stop and think about EVERYTHING that I demand of my body, and what I DO and DO NOT do to take care of it! I have to remember that this is my soul’s vehicle, and it will only last so many miles, so I have got to start taking better care of my engine, er…uhm…so to speak!! π
I stopped at the grocery store on the way home this evening – I was craving cheerios with a sliced banana for dinner, and I wasn’t sure if we had any of that so, I made the mistake of grocery shopping on an empty stomach. NO, an empty stomach that had just worked out hard for the last hour and a half!!! So, let’s just say I may have gone a little crazy, and bought a little bit of EVERYTHING!!! π The good thing is that after belly dancing class, I am on an adrenaline high, and I ONLY WANT to do or eat things that are healthy, so ALL of my food choices fit that bill!! I am now contemplating doing our weekly grocery shop under those conditions EVERY time I shop!! LOL!!! I wonder what my sweetie would think of that??
NOT TOFU AGAIN!!! π
(I really do LOVE that man of mine!!)
On that note, I am taking my happy, but exhausted self to bed!
Have a FABULOUS evening!!! π
Very cute! What a happy and alive face! Have a wonderful weekend…heaven only knows what you’ll be up to next ;o)

You are so blessed funny. I am sitting here laughing the whole time I am reading this blog. Very well done and LOVE LOVE LOVE your pic and the pose! I hope that some of that creativity will flow into making yourself a costume so that you can dance special for Jason He would love that!
I am very happy to hear that your food choices on an empty tummy were good. I started to panic when I was reading that. I thought OH SHAZAMMM!!!! LOL!!!
I really missed everyone on Wednesday and I will make sure not to schedule dates on that night. I have been doing good…my darned monhtly visitor finally showed up at my front door last night after being late 2 1/2 wks. GEEZ!! It was one of those moments that I thought…. Am I finally done with those horrible things?! Oh I hope so… Goddess bless me when it came on last night… Sheer disappointment. LMAO!
Well TGIF!!!!! I hope we can catch up with each other sometime this weekend. I will be starting to pack my stuff and get ready to move from Camille’s house by the 1st. They are ready for their home back and I told them it would be the end of may. So I am actually looking at several places over the weekend be it a room or a studio until I have permanent work. That is the hold up on getting my own place. DARN!!
I love you sis!
