Sucker for punishment

Okay, so I may have fallen in love with yoga last night (or maybe hate, we'll have to see). It was my first experience with it and I must say that I have a new respect for yoga enthusiasts. Incredible, well at least incredibly painful. Who new that my hamstrings were sooo tight!! Ahhh. It makes me hurt just thinking about it. And the hole thing is that you are supposed to be relaxed, meditating. Are you kidding me?? Most of the time all I could do was draw parallels between yoga and labour and delivery. ouch. Okay maybe it wasn't exactly that bad but it was pretty incredible. I would love to go to classes but they are in the middle of the day with no childcare available so that doesn't work so I may just borrow videos from the library and do it in the evenings. So anyway that is my new exciting experience, which despite the pain I actually would enjoy doing. Sucker for punishment? maybe.

How is it going now? You know, Mom went to a seminar where a wellness technician over old people in a center discovered that the happier the people were, the more fir they became regardless of what they ate or how they excercised. So that made me think of getting Yoga for Relaxation from Walmart. And more chocolate pudding. Those things decrease my stress and put me in a happy place.

How true Julie. That is a very good idea, more relaxation and more chocolate pudding. I really like an apple dipped in pudding. Chocolate, vanilla, tapioca, they all put me in a happy place.
