Yogalates & Coffee

So up until the wedding, mom and I went to get our nails done practically every Saturday. It became a rather expensive habit!! Today we began a much cheaper habit, and went to a Yogalates class at the Y.

Yogalates and coffee...do not mix. Apparently yogalates (a mix between yoga and pilates) is supposed to be very calming and relaxing. If you have 2 cups of Godiva coffee before hand, you're likely to not be very relaxed and calm.

Also, it was a very difficult class, don't get me wrong...but I was extremely BORED during it. We would hold poses for what seems like an eternity, and if I didn't collapse from my shaking muscles, by the time I got to the next pose, I was thinking..."Geez...when is this going to end! I'm bored!" At one point we were laying on the mat, relaxing, and I seriously thought the instructor had gone to sleep. I kept lifting up to see why it was so quiet and we weren't doing anything!

Of course now my body feels like a bowl of jello, and I won't be able to move in the morning. But I think next week I'll go to the class sans coffee and see if that helps.

Owen is working right now (6a to 6p) ...I have a plan to have the house clean and get some gifts put away before he gets home tonight. I had that plan last weekend too, and you see where it got me. Absolutely no where!!

Enjoy your Saturday!
