halloween..
Friday, 31 October 2003 10:54 A GMT-08
for some reason an elementary school in-service day coincided with halloween this year. To that effect, my AM yoga class was sparsely attended with only 3 people, most of the SAHMs were apparently home with the kids this morning. At le

to let the Turbokick mentee teach her first warmup, *4* new people come to class. Yep. What's up with that? That hasn't happened in about 2 months. Murphy's law I swear. I looked over at Jennifer and said "honey do you want me to do it?" ...and she l

I have one yogafit class at the University of Texas Rec Center where hardly ANYBODY brings their own sticky mat. I have to use every loaner I have (currently I have 6) and also end up giving MINE up too! (okay it's just nasty doing yog

I have a closet FULL of workout/yoga clothes. I could probably go a month without wearing the same outfit to teach in twice. (And I teach 9 classes a week....whoa!)
Yet here lately, everytime I go to choose something to wear it all looks boring and

tonight..the door bell rang. My 15 year old dog sprang from where she was sleeping and ran as fast as she could to the front door BARKING as loud as she could. She probably hasn't done this, let alone even HEARD the door bell in order to do this, for

I ended up having to sub a step aerobics class this saturday and low and behold, I didn't SUCK! Turbokick might not draw people to my class but it certainly has trained my ears to HEAR music and a 32 count phrase. Even though I only had 2 people
Just in time for Halloween, spider pushups...
Friday, 24 October 2003 8:11 A GMT-08
one of my really fit and strong yoga students showed me "spider pushups" yesterday at the end of class. I was dumbfounded as to how he could even do them...you lay face down on the floor, extend your arms out as far as you can and come up on to

On the way home last night my cell phone rang: it was an instructor who was sick, and her sub that she had lined up had just called her to say she was sick too. So I had to pick my speed up a bit to get home to teach her sculpting class (the cla

I have the sweetest older woman in my Tuesday/Thursday night yoga class. She's in immigrant from Russia and we always chat before class about work (she's a lab tech like me) or our pets because we both have a yorkie dog as well. She started

I had the opportunity to take the new T'ai chi format that 24 hour fitness is offering at their Group Xpedition this last Sunday..as usual it's a bit of a hybrid when brought into the fitness setting...but still the basic foundation is there and I ca

that's how I start off the morning lately..telling Haley those very words and getting a kiss from her before I leave for work. Because I still can. For now. Just today the vet determined that the heart medications were not the rea

what a fine mess. I've been holed up in my house with a NASTY cold since Wednesday morning. Actually whatever I have fired up my histamine intolerance and my hives have come back with a vengence. (that whole hive thing is a LONG story..best save
I feel like crap, my dog feels like crap..we're off to a hell of a start this week.

That suspicious sore throat I had yesterday turned into a full blown snot-filled head cold over night. Nice. The same exact thing happened to me in June, when I had that killer week when I subbed 2 classes in addition to my 10. Well this week I've go

thanks to Crazydogmama's blog today ..thought I too should quickly (and without thinking too hard) type 10 things I'm grateful for today..and they are listed in absolutely no particular order:
1. Heart medicines that keep my dog alive.
2. My husba

Last night after yoga class, I checked my cell phone and had *5* missed calls and 3 voicemails. This is highly irregular. I immediately thought "oh god it's the dog... something is wrong!"...I was really apprehensive about even listening to the messa

Being a coordinator is hardly *ever* worth the $50 extra dollars a week I make doing it. And dealing with a bunch of other instructors, their impossible schedules, moody temperaments, sometimes diva-esque personalities makes me want to pick up and th

Blog city has been down most of the day. Anything I had whitty in my head to post this morning, has long slipped out of my brain I'm sure. It's just another Tuesday afterall. I slept through an entire hour of my alarm going off this morning. It was r

Non-typical Monday. I just didn't feel like giving a crap today. After my class this morning, I promptly came home.. called the lab to let them know I wasn't feeling well and wouldn't be in..and them plopped myself on the couch to watch some taped ep

so my boss walks into the lab this morning and asks:

Apparently in neuroscience applications you can inject the rabies virus into muscle and within 12 hours it will travel upstrea

I'm back to being perpetually busy as usual. This Saturday morning at 10am I'm subbing step at Sienna. Whew. I've not taught step in quite a while. I sub it from time to time but try not to because it clutters up my brain too much. Funny but step is

From time to time, I still get emails re: my body for life transformations I did back in 2000 and 2001. Got one recently from someone frustrated with her lack of weight loss. Her workouts looked good, but her eating (although seemingly okay) didn't l
