So -- i woke up this morning, STILL addicted to spinning class. I decide after last week, seeing some results from my recent "Healthier Living" to add an extra spinning class to my week. Last night Chris Owens and I attended the "normal" spinning class. I have been going to the 101 -spinning for out of shape kids on Wednesday & decided to step it up a little and try a normal class. Yes, it was a little more difficult -- but I was determined to push through. Before I knew it...it was 7:15, time to strech! YES! the only downside to this class was the 'soundtrack'. the instuctor was older...more folksy, so she played alot of 60's & 70's music...and JOURNEY?? Which I'm not real sure will continue to motivate me to SPIN faster. There were some Beatles songs on there-so that was fun, but even to that point..not ones that would motivate me to Spin faster. i'm anxiously looking forward to Wednesday's class - with top 40 or hip hop music for us cool younger out of shape kids :)
And I do have to say, I'm loving this time I'm getting to spend with Chris. I'd missed so much of the one-on-one relationship we used to have - so I'm happy to be re-bonding with him. Now watch, he'll move away soon & leave me to walk & Spin alone at the gym. {Sigh} but will be very happy to know he's 'back home' and can say things like "im having dinner with my sister". :)
Valentine's Day weekend was nice -- minus eric not being here. that was a total bummer. but i kept busy... friday night was awesome with my old classmates. It's amazing that for some of us, 19 years have passed since we have been in the same room...but we just picked up where we left off. I loved hearing all the old stories & walking down memory lane. Everyone seems to transform back into themselves from 19 years ago - didn't even take much beer :) I'm so excited for the 20th to get here & hope more people can make it. Saturday - i got to spend some time with an old friend Sheri. We'd kind of gone out separate ways when I got married (she'd dated him too....and she had to move away to get on with her life) - but again, we just picked up where we left off and continued to be the "fun girls" in the group. It felt so good to laugh like that again!
I sure did get lonely the rest of the weekend, though. At first I thought i was going to be ok this time without Eric here. I always forget what "BLUE" feels like, until it smacks me in the face. I have a hard time getting out of bed - i have no personality - BLAH -- and less than normal motivation. I really need to plan a summer of "busy" while he's gone so I don't find myself stuck in bed or on the couch. I'm so anxious for the weekend to be able to see him!!
I did go see Confessions of a Shopaholic - which was cute. At way too much food that was bad for me...pizza, skyline chili dogs(3!!) and red cake...but just a slice. But I also went to an Urban Iron class that kicked my ass -- which is good.
well...ttfn....more when i have something eventful to share!

Sounds like fun! I am starting to get inspired and may try a spinning class...I think the gym offers 30 minute sessions. Maybe that is what I need to ease into it...the gym doesn't offer beginners...eek! So, I think the 30 minute instructor does my 40 days of yoga so I will ask her about it. Hang in there about Eric...call me if you need me!!
