Howdy Everyone. What’s cookin?

I went to the gym tonight and took Belly Dancing. I’ve always wanted to learn. I’ve realized I’m not that co-ordinated though.

I think I got one move. I’m not sure what’s more disturbing that I can’t follow or looking at myself in the mirrors everywhere not following.

I’m still trying to figure out how they shimmy like that?

Long time ago I was told that I had a few lifetimes as a Belly Dancer. One lifetime that’s all I did and I was quite good at it.

I’m going to try and talk to that part of me that did it because my shimmying isn’t working.

It is quite fun though and the idea that there are coins making all this cluttery noise is kind of a feeling of abundance and wealth.

I’ll go next time and hopefully it gets easier. I hope its the same routine though because I don’t know if I can learn another routine so fast.

It didn’t help that I was the only one in the middle of the class that my little coin skirt fell off. That was a little embarrasing. No one said anything but if it were me and it happened to someone else I might have snickered inside. I admit it.

Bobby and I went swimming at the gym this morning. Do you know we have never been swimming together even though we have been together for so many years. We were like little kids. I didn’t have a good experience on the slide. I don’t think it was open and there was no water so I had to waddle down it like a duck. Quack. I’m glad we were alone in the pool. Well if someone was looking at us through the windows I couldn’t see anyway because I took off my glasses.

So that’s my first day at the gym. Stay tuned for more exciting adventures. I know that the fitness test on Thursday is going to be good blog material.
