Either I was having an off day or I am not cut out for it!

An old picture I found of Sadie. LOL She's lost alot of weight since this picture.

The report of yesterday's intro to the intro-reformer class goes as this....I DO NOT THINK I AM CUT OUT TO EVEN TRY IT!

First I got the news about my friend's dad had passed away after having quadruple bypass surgery last week and my mind wasn't really focusing on anything and this was going to be all new to me and that was rattling my nerves anyways!

So what we did was just see what the equipment involved and she showed us what we would be learning in either the beginner class or the intro, I didn't catch which it was or it might be both?? No clue, but it was more watching than trying and taking part. We did do a few things.

This where I don't think I am cut out to do it. First off its one thing getting like your body positioned first and such, and then its a WHOLE OTHER thing doing that and putting everything else together! I am NOT quick to pick up on stuff right away and I swear I get 2/3 things down and forget the one thing that was missing! I dunno if it was my body language that was putting off what I was thinking or what, but every NEW thing we learned, it seemed like I needed help getting started with it! That is nerve racking to me!

I do want to give it a try aka why I signed up for it for next week, but hell if I am this bad next week, I will not get through a beginner class I don't think. I am barely getting through the beginner mat class at the moment, but this week was better with that also. Its like with time, I guess it will get better, but I don't know what was going on yesterday. I was having an all-around off day or something.

So this afternoon we ran into town to get what was needed for the week while my parents are gone. =) Basically groceries and whatever else. It has looked like its going to rain all day today, but its just been cloudy and cooler. Which has been nice. =o)

So thats it. =)

I guess its good I didn't fall on my head!

Caroline and Crystal....

Ok the strange title will make sense here in a second! Trust me! LOL I had ball class this morning, but walked in no one was at the desk and I guess whoever opened was doing a massage and so I just walked into the classroom and the Pilates equipment was all out and I was like wait a second, thats not this morning or today is it? LOL Made me think! So I just found a piece of wall and sat down away from everything. LOL I was hiding out I guess you can say! =p I just sat there and did Soduku puzzles (well not even 1) and kept to myself. LOL

So yeah, ball this morning. I forgot to take a sinus pill this morning before going, didn't think it was going to be a problem! So we did basically and thankfully everything else that didn't involve your legs. LOL She asked us if we had any problems and Helen said no and its like I wish I wasn't in pain! LOL =p So we did the shell on the ball. Ok well the first few times in went ok for me and Helen had some problems and so she worked with her and I was doing it on my own. Well 2/3 times we did it, I fell off the stupid ball! I mean like lost my balance and fell off to the side. I am thankful my body went side-ways and not forward or I would've fell on my head! Also when I felt like I was going to fall, I released my legs and had them out to the side and just let my body go to the side. So with spotting I tried it again, AGAIN fell off twice! Ugh, the instructor was like if it happens again we'll let it go for the day. LOL Well the 3rd time was a charm, being spotted! LOL I got the hang of it! LOL I have the hang of it, its just I dunno what was going on this morning! LOL =p

So this afternoon, we talked about today about next week being the intro to reformer class and so Helen gets some sort of idea, we're going to take an intro to the intro class...does that make any sense?! LOL At least I won't be clueless next week about going into it! I have no clue what this will involve or entail, but I will know after it! LOL

So thats it! Later!

Some one remind me next time......

Just another random picture!

Some one PLEASE remind me this next time I schedule a massage....to do it at the end of the month after having classes! OMG! I swear I really wish I was doing it this week right now. My legs and knees are really really sore from yesterday and it KILLS to walk!

So how was ball class yesterday? LOL It was good, really good. I swear I think everything we did was with our legs, cause nothing else hurts at the moment. We even did where we took turns saying something to do on the ball and its like um I dunno! LOL I am bad at remembering what stuff is called. And yes that class was in the afternoon and yet my brain was dead! We did the dreaded wall-squats and I think thats why my legs are bothering me. We some new things too, but ugh I really hate the squats! LOL =p

So next week my parents are out of town and so next week the only thing I knew I would most likely come to was Pilates on Wednesday. But Helen offered to give me a ride on Monday to class, or she would've been alone. This is WHY I hate not being able to drive right now. =( I mean I leave it up to the person and she will be going out of her way too. She lives on the south side and she's closer to her house leaving there. So last night we talked about maybe she giving me a ride home from Pilates and then one of us came up with maybe doing ball in the morning. I said sure lets do it that way. So thats the plan, unless ball gets cancelled tomorrow. But at the moment its on.

So last night, I was trying to find something to go with these blue pants I got to work-out in. Well I found stuff that went with it and then I put on this fuschia top with the pants and walked upstairs and jokingly said to my mom "How does this look?" Right like I was expecting her to give me this look of are you nuts and she said it looked good! Ok am I strange for thinking she is nuts?! I might wear it tomorrow morning and say my mom said it looked good together! LOL Hey its a morning class!

So thats it. We sadly didn't have dance tonight. =o( It will start next month again, I think. We shall see there. So thats it. I am off here! Later.

Why can't the pool open now?!

One of the two indoor plants has started to show sprouts! Some of the seeds we planted outside are starting to sprout too. =o)

Ok why can't they open the pool on the weekends in May?! SERIOUSLY?! It has been 90 the past 2 days and hot! I mean last year it wasn't this warm when the pool opened. If memory serves me right, it was cold and raining the first day! LOL How many more days until Memorial Day weekend?!

So my dad is on an expedition, I swear, to drill a hole right into my ceiling or something. It sounds like a dentist's drill above my room. LOL He's doing something with the tile in their bathroom. UGH!!!!!!!!!! Glad its today in the afternoon and not tomorrow morning!

So mom and I went over to Wal-Mart to get away from the noise. LOL She was going on and on about when they leave and what I have to do and such. Its like you are leaving a week from now! Sheesh! Whatever! I can take care of myself and the animals and make sure the house is still standing when they come home! :rolls eyes:

I must say my back has been pain-less since my massage on Thursday, especially where I had pain the week before last after Wednesday's classes. Best of all, NO MUSCLE SPASMS!!!!!! Lol Trust me that last comment is the best part of all. ;)

So that's it. Nothing new other than planting more flowers and having a drill sounding like its coming through the ceiling! LOL

Oh gosh!

More pictures of the stuff planted last weekend. Thats 2 of the tomato plants that we planted. Yum!

Ok so my friend Kate and I have been talking about going to see "Wicked" the broadway musical that is on tour at the moment and is coming to North Carolina at some point in May. If you haven't a clue what its about, its the Wicked Witch's story. I've never read the book, just know of the musical and of coursee I know who the wicked witch, the good witch, the flying monkeys...etc are! LOL I do know the "Wizard of Oz" story! LOL

So the other day while we were hanging out we got to talking about, well I did, about how I was going to NY to go see Rent on the final night of its National tour. Well as I have said in previous posts, 3 of the original cast members are part of the tour and this turned into a convo about "Wicked" and Idina Menzel. What does that all have in common?! She was the original wicked witch of Wicked and the original Maureen of Rent. LOL

Anyways! When I was a kid, I would run away or stop watching "Wizard of Oz" when the witch came out. My mom told me that once I saw the green face it scared me and I ran off. So I had told Kate the story about running off when I was younger and she goes are you going to be able to watch this since you were afraid of the witch?! LOL I was like, she doesn't scare me anymore! I can sit through "Wizard of Oz" now without running off! Geesh! LOL I did sit through a live performance in High School of it and also was in it when we did the musical in middle school! Sheesh!

I am pretty sure I will be able to see "Wicked" when we go see it! LOL I am 100% sure of it, if not there is really something wrong with my head! LOL

So that was my random thought of the weekend! =)

The massage was won-der-ful!!!!!!!

My new rain gage! Isn't it cute!!!!!!! :)

Ok so this having to be drove everywhere is getting old fast. My mom had a stupid phone call at 3 and so she wanted to leave at 2:35 and we left at 2:30! My massage wasn't scheduled till 3! Yeah, well got there at like 2:40-2:45. No one was at the desk and so I just sat down in the waiting room again. LOL I brought along my Soduku book with me and did like 3 puzzles while waiting. I was into doing that and heard a door open and out came the massage therapist and so that caught my attention. hehehe

So while this was all going on, my friend's dad was under-going quadruple bypass surgery and I hadn't heard from her, but told her to text me and that my phone would be on but on vibrate. My phone did go off and it was loud to me. LOL

So this time it wasn't as nerve racking leading up. I ate lunch at 11:30 this morning and didn't drink anything between after finishing lunch and going. So I am hoping I won't have the spasms again this time in the days to follow. We shall see. Hopefully not.

So this time was so different from the last time. That was great though. I actually started on my stomach this time, and not thinking about what was being said its like wait that would be what way?! LOL Duh Cortney! LOL Back up is on your stomach. Duh! LOL Its like you gotta learn to IGNORE my stupidity. I thought I was going to fall asleep during it cause I was so tired anyways and did for like a few minutes, but I run my mouth too much. LOL The big thing was being excited about Gaia's upcoming Gymnastics performance on May 30th. :) Woohoo!

So it was great and I feel great after it. The only thing about being on my stomach first was my sinuses went wacko on me and I couldn't breath for one thing and plus I think it was dripping. LOL Ew I know! LOL But getting up it wasn't as bad as the first one I had, still had the sinus pressure, but I was able to get up and such.

So that was today and thats all to report. :o) Monday its back to ball class...how can I go back after today?! I said that last time too! LOL =p

What a week it has been!

Just another random picture for Marci. :)

Ok just a note to everyone, I didn't answer my phone all weekend for various reasons. Its just a tough time of the year for me and Monday was the end of it. But its not because something happened to me, it was I didn't want anything to do with my phone. If that makes one bit of sense! ;)

So part from that, this week has gone by kind of quickly. Yesterday and today are like the only days something is going on really. Yesterday I went to ball class at 10:00am and wasn't alone, Helen was there. :) hehehe I didn't care, I have had classes alone and so its not a big deal now to have it alone. As to what we did, I can't remember. I have that shell on the ball down some what now. She actually had us do it on our own together, still unsure about the balancing part on the ball. My mind goes back to falling into my bed last week. LOL I had one slip right at the end, but that was my hand slipped when I was trying to get up into the position and made me loose my balance.

So I had Linus yesterday. :o) We actually had fleece to make blankets. Yay! I learned the other way of doing the strips yesterday also. That was my goal yesterday. :o) Kate was there also. So we each did a blanket and then took off. Her and I went to the dollar store and came back to my house for a bit and then went to her house before she took me to Pilates.

So Pilates, I am back to scratching my head at the moves. LOL I signed up for the Reformer intro class for the 6th, too. What am I doing to myself?! LOL It wasn't that bad, trust me. But its getting more challenging and it wasn't easy to catch on to everything at first. We learned 3 new things, and 2 were similar to each other and yet I still didn't get it right away. Its like give me about a month and I will get it! :rolls eyes:

So after all of that, Kate picked me up and we went to Asheboro to see about fleece. They had some of the cutest fabric at Hobby Lobby. Well I wasn't buying any, and she was like I will buy it for you. Ok, its up to you. So we did that went to Big Lots and CVS also up there. I ate a late dinner at her house and visited with her mom a bit.

It was a beautiful day yesterday. :) Windy, still is today. But it was a fun day yesterday. :o) This afternoon I have my massage at 2:00, and taking advice from other people about a few things in hope I don't have the muscle spasms of last time. Keep your fingers crossed!

Gardening......

Sadie found my dad's V8 can out in the yard and I caught her licking it and picked it up and snapped this with her tongue basically in the opening. ;)

So my first post today was marking the next 2 days. I do that every year. As they say, you'll never forget where you were on 9/11, well if you are as old as dirt, you don't forget the smaller events that were before it, but were big in US History.

Congrats Marci on your success today with your race! :)

So today my mom and I planted the seeds we had bought awhile back. So we headed to Lowe's to get the herbs and vegetables and such we wanted. The big thing being tomato plants, we had success last year growing them and hoping to have the same this year. :) So it starting drizzling before we left, so typical. LOL But we were able to get everything planted before it decided to do more than drizzle and everything looks great! :o) I took pictures of the stuff today, and will post them down the road. ;)

So I have nothing planned till Wednesday. LOL I have ball, Linus and Pilates all on Wednesday, which means I'll be home a whole 70 minutes before turning around and going back out the door, well not even that. Don't get out of Linus until 3:00, so it will be more like an hour or less. :o) LOL I am hoping we make blankets this week. Hopefully!

So thats it. Have a good week!

ALWAYS REMEMBER & NEVER FORGET!

Just another random picture! ;) Marci I think some one's cat is ready to come home. ;)

So why the title? Well today we mark 14 years since the Oklahoma City Bombing that took 168 lives, including 19 children in the worst US terrorist attack (before 9/11) in history. Tomorrow marks 10 years since the Columbine HS shooting where 2 shooters killed 12 students + 1 teacher before turning the guns on themselves.

14 years ago I was in 8th grade. I remember going home that day and seeing the news and being in shock. I remember the following day going to first period and our teacher telling us that he hadn't seen that large of print on the newspaper since the Vietnam War and Kennedy's Assination. The one thing everyone tends to remember is the picture of 1 year old Baylee Almon in the firefighter's arms, dying if not already dead. She had just celebrated her 1st birthday the day before. Her's and 18 other children had their life cut short by a disturbed man. The day they demolished the rest of the building, I wished so badly they would've put McVeigh on the first floor and let the building come down on him so he could see what it was like for those people. Its just sick that a human could do that. Its one thing to bomb a building when there are adults in it, but its a whole new thing when there are children involved. Still makes me mad today.

Everyone has heard of Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold by now since all of the shootings that have took place since then. 10 years ago tomorrow they decided to make history themselves and kill 13 people in one of the worse school shootings in history. I was never the same after Columbine. My life was forever changed by this, by one phone call and reading one name off the computer screen. Its hard enough to believe I am marking 10 years since graduating from high school this summer, but this came first. Still remember never going back to the library after, ate in an inclosed hallway the day after....some one even threaten to finish what they began.

You'll never forget where you were on 9/11/01, and my list goes back to other events in time. I look at my 7 year old niece and she was born post 9/11 and this is all in her history books and one day she might ask me if I remember where I was when this all took place. I will have something to say, but like us learning about Kennedy being assinated, Pearl Harbor...etc we won't have the stories of Gaia's great-grandparents and grandparents for them to tell, but its stuff like that where we need to keep the memory alive so we never forget the victims.

Always Remember and Never Forget 4/19/95 & 4/20/99!

Ow!!!!

There's the true rainbow from the other day. =o)

I was beginning to wish this week was next week yesterday. My shoulders and arms were killing me all day yesterday. Like the entire upper part of my back and shoulders. I may not be sore like this next Thursday, but if I am....I hope the massage won't kill me. LOL Cause I tried to massage my shoulders to where I could reach and it hurt! LOL =p Oh well.

So yesterday my dad and I went up to Greensboro together. Which is nice, he's been on a nice streak lately. LOL I replaced my ipod that got washed, but hate the new one. LOL Is that even possible?! So that and a trip to Target made my day. =o)

So then today he wanted to go look at shoes at wal-mart and so I went again today. I got what I forgot to get yesterday. Of course every kid in this little town was in there, so much for making up the snow days this week. LOL =p

So thats it. My parents are going to Florida in May and I wish I was going, but I am being left behind. =( At least I will have the house to myself for a week. =)

Later!

It was a busy-busy day!

There's Caroline holding the mug I made Deborah. I finally got to give her the mug. I ook this on my cell phone. :o)

So this morning, I was up at the crack of dawn...well for me at least. ;) 8:45 for ball class and to be up incase they called and told me otherwise. I didn't call, but I knew I left a message to say we would be there. So Sharon picked me up at 9:40 and off we went to class. ;)

Well here I thought Helen was doing the class this morning, well it turns out no one else was coming and if I didn't call the instructor would've had a free-hour there. Oops! Its like I hope you weren't planning on that for sure! ;) I guess we're lucky she came in and was there before 10:00, but some one else could've called her and told her that we were coming, or I don't know! LOL I am not going to sit here and speculate it. LOL

So Wednesday class was different last week, well today was it was different from Monday still. So the new things we did were lunges instead of doing the wall-squats and I even said oh darn no squats today?! LOL But the new-new thing we did I thought I was going to fall over and bust my head open trying it! LOL She showed us and its the child's position instead your body is up on the ball! I was sitting there like, oh my gosh if I try that on my own there will be stitches in my head. I could see myself flying forward off the ball! Plus I was having problems with my balance today because of my sinuses were causing me to feel dizzy and such. So I guess the look on my face said it all, I am not trying this without spotting first! =op So Sharon went first and I was sitting there like oh my gosh, there is no way I can do this! So it was my turn, and the first time I tried to bridge up and go into it, well the balance thing was an issue and it wasn't working. But I did eventually get into the position. LOL I mean if she wasn't standing behind me, I would've either fell forward on my head, to the sides or back on my back or legs. Thats how wobbly I was the first time I tried it. I did get it down. LOL

So after class I went and picked up tomatoes, cause we were out and I wanted some. ;) So after that I came home and helped my dad cut down the bits and pieces down in the yard. I even got bored at one point and went out and did more on my own. LOL So at 4:10 I left to go back for Pilates. So of course we got there early as usual and we walked in and no one was sitting at the desk and my mind went back to last week and was like I just sit down in the waiting area and wait or go in the classroom. Well didn't matter I heard a hello and I wasn't even standing that far in the door! LOL She was in the room and duh there are mirrors in there so yeah she could see people come in. HAH!

So still today was a review, well no one else was there last week except me. So it was just over everything we've been doing still. I had it all down pretty much, I think. I still can't quite do the around-the-clock thing, even though I am doing it, still doesn't feel right. So of course I still tend to curl my toes under, well heck I still do it. I am doing it as I sit here and type this! We were doing the bridging up and yeah here I am doing it with my toes curled under and it didn't feel different. It feels more natural for me to do it that way! LOL Don't ask me, I am probably driving the instructor insane with doing that. She saw they were turned under, hehehe. Hey, I do it during ball too, but I have shoes on!

So anyways, I came home and showered and got ready to go out for dinner. =) It was great to see Deborah again, I haven't seen her since November. =o) So we met at the Bistro right here in town. I took the mug I made at the pottery place in January so she would always remember the butterfly charm she took to Somerset for me. I am worried about the butterflies coming loose and I think once was. So we got caught up on everything going on and had a great dinner. It was just great to hang-out, if you know what I mean. The picture above is the final picture I have of the mug here. =o) I am glad to say its now with the right owner. ;)

So thats it. Long post, long day. I don't have class till next Wednesday...and my massage is next Thursday! Woohoo! Can't wait! ;)

Rainbows at the of the day...

I snapped this picture after the latest round of rain/storms came through. The sunset, isn't it beautiful?

So today was full of thunderstorms and rain all day long. So I didn't have class tonight, so I spent the majority of the day catching up on TV shows that have filled up my DVR. Well basically one show in particular, 24. I am glad to say I am finally caught up with it the first time this season! :o) Well for now I am. But I have really liked this season and I like this Agent Renee Walker. Its ironic, the actress that plays her has the same birthday as I do and its funny you can see the stubburness of her being an Aries coming out in her character. At the beginning of the season I kept wondering when she was going to die off, but now I really like her.

So other than the on/off storms of the day, nothing happened really around here. I am still waiting to hear back from Deborah about if she wants to do dinner tomorrow night. It doesn't help I can't drive still, which is a pain in the butt. :o( Tomorrow Sharon and I are planning to pop into ball class in the morning unless they call and tell me otherwise, lol I don't think it will be a problem...I'm not sure, then its Pilates at 4:30 and then dinner after that, if it happens.

So thats it...I'm off here.

I am so proud of myself!

Look at the clouds from Friday! They were all in like circles and such, had like a circular shape to them. It was creepy!

Ok I finally got pictures from my phone uploaded and so looking through them, LOL....lots to be shared here. ;) hahaha

Ok this will sound so stupid to people, but I am proud of myself! I had ball class tonight and my nemesis has been this sit-up thing with starting with the ball on your stomach and then sitting up and letting the ball fall over your legs. Well hell I couldn't do it to save myself, and today even still couldn't do it! Ugh, right?! Well with some help and if you ask me tricking my body, I did it the final 2 times on my own! I was so happy! :o) Yay for me! LOL I am so happy. hehehe

So thats basically it. LOL

I swear...I CANNOT take it much more!!!!!!

My ipod that I put through the washer. Good news is that it still works, minus the light that makes the screen bright. Its usable, all I care about.

What I can't take much more is my mother's bull shit, is what I cannot take anymore! I swear she has something stuck up her ass and I want to take it out myself. It all started with a trip to wal-mart and while we were in there, I didn't want Sprite and said I wanted Mountain Dew. Both were on sale, but it became a bitch fest about that and so she turned around to some one in the aisle and told them my 28 year old daughter is having a melt down again. That pissed me off, with good reason! So I smacked her in the arm and so she turned around to some one else and said it was normal for me to do this not to worry. I was LIVID! Its like what the hell gave you that right?! So I demanded the keys to get the hell away from her and of course at that point she threatened to make me walk home.

Fast-forward to the car, I got in and so she opened the door and was yelling at me in the parking lot and all this shit, she then proceeded to punch me in the face. Oh yeah, that made me real happy! So on the way home she said she rather live with my great-aunt (who's a control freak) than with me, I am fat, fatter than she was when I was her age, was married had a stable job and a kid at my age, she wants to disown me, she's willing to pay some one $1000 a month to let me move-in with them. That list goes on!

So I tried to apologize for my actions and she blew me off and so she tried her I want to throw stuff at you crap and see how upset I make you. Well I frankly do NOT care if she's sorry, cause she said she wasn't for everything she said and didn't care. So its like then do not even think about coming around and trying to put off you apology, cause it won't work. I am done taking her shit.

So Easter will not be a happy one here. She wants me to put the crap in the oven, well not going to happen. Well good reason, she said she's not making me dinner tomorrow night for the holiday. Thats fine with me. Don't want her shitty food.

So I am off to bed here, before they get home from Easter vigual. She actually thought I was going to go tonight too....HAHAHA NOPE!

Thunderstorms...Severe Weather.....Yay!

There are my Easter decorations. :)

Ok first off. Yes Kate and I did get to hang out last night, which was great. :o) We went to wal-mart and then went back and hung out at a friend of her's house and did Mario Cart for a bit and such.

I heard from my friend Annie too last night, I was excited to hear from her. I can't wait to see her new cat now. :o)

So I got home late last night and didn't go to bed until 1:00 or after that. So today I slept in till noon and yet I am still tired. LOL Yesterday was such a long day and I had to get up and moving today because I had ball at 2:30 today and it was the make-up class from Monday. LOL

So off I went to class. I think the other therapist that was in there was taken back when I walked in and its like its not ball class night. LOL So I went into the classroom and sat down and like took a 5 minute cat-nap. I was tired and I heard Helen walk-in and was relieved she came, not like having a private class would've been SO TERRIBLE! LOL So my elbow was still giving me problems using the weights, I think its still from Wednesday. I am resting them this weekend and will just fight through the pain Monday. So today's class was different from Wednesday. LOL We did the bouncing stuff. LOL

So that was basically it today. :o) Other than the stinkin storms we're getting on and off at the moment. Yay for them, not! I hate thunderstorms. =(

I'm off here, have a good weekend!

Its beautiful outside!

Happy Easter/Passover...whichever you celebrate!

So its been peaceful here today because everyone in this house went to Asheville to the Builtmore house. Something I have no interest in really going to see, tell you that much. I had to get up and feed Sadie at 7:00 this morning, which wasn't my idea of fun. :o( Of course, she wouldn't go outside and go potty and I was like fine, thats it, you will go out after I get back up. LOL

So this afternoon I tried to take Sadie for a walk, and of course she was being STUBBURN and wouldn't go! So we didn't go that far, but peed and pooped so I was happy with that.

So yesterday when I realized the date, my mind went to thinking about Deborah and it being Deora's birthday. She would've been 28 yesterday. So I sat down and wrote her and Deora's friend an e-mail to let them know I was thinking about them. It was strange, its like I saw it was April 8th and my mind went straight to her.

So nothing is going on around here. I think Kate and I are going to go into town later, not 100% sure there. I never say never till she doesn't show-up. But tomorrow I have my make-up ball class at 2:30, and I am hoping really hard that she doesn't make it too rough or I will problems this weekend and next class. My one elbow is still bothering me from yesterday, so hopefully that will resolve itself by tomorrow.

TTYL!

What a day!

Another stuffed animal shot! ;) Rainbow, Ben & Snowie on top. Morgan and Katy in front. :)

Did I tell anyone that 8:45am comes early in the morning? Oh my gosh! I was already half-awake when that wake-up call came this morning. So I took a shower, got dressed, went upstairs and ate a bowl of cereal, came back down and brushed my teeth, blow dryed my hair, did my hair and got out of the house at 20 of 10!

So a long story SHORT I asked to be put down for today's ball class to get one in this week, well the next day is when I got the call about the make-up class on Friday. So by the time I thought to call and cancel, it was too late in the day. So anyways, I got there about 10 minutes early and was told that the instructor was running 10 minutes late. Ok, so I went and sat in the classroom, like usual and took my phone out and started texting people to see if anyone was awake. LOL Well Marci was and kept me entertained for a bit. ;) So after talking/texting people for awhile, the other lady that was taking the class came in and introduced herself to me and such. So we chatted while we waited for our instructor to get there. So today's class wasn't that hard of impact like they are on Monday's. The lady that was there has problems with her knees and so alot of the stuff was cut out and we did other things. So the only problem I had was my elbows were starting to feel the strain of using the weights, because I have dislocated one and shattered the other, and my right elbow is the one that has never been the same! So I had pain issues with my elbows, especially when we were doing push-ups. I fought through it and didn't quit because of the pain. The other funny part was, the other lady was getting a massage after class and I was like oh can I have your spot?! LOL =p Only what 2 weeks till the 23rd?! ;)

So after class I went to Project Linus. We were having a goodbye luncheon for a lady that has been part of it I guess since the beginning of the one here. And oh my gosh you talk about a feast! LOL There was enough food for an army! Mmmmm! My bad though I forgot about there being a lunch today and took my own lunch! LOL Oops! =p So no blanket making today, just sewed on labels. And finally Miss Kate made an appearance! LOL So I got to chat with her for a bit and she gave me a ride home. :)

So I came home for a bit, before going back to Pilates. So my grandma and I were having word search races and of course I won them, but I was trying to go slow! So back out the door I went for 4:30 class. Well of course got there early and no one was there, that I could see. I sat down in the waiting area, rather than going into the classroom so I would be saw. LOL So it turns out I was the only one there! Well skippy-dee! LOL It wasn't bad at all, trust me. I am use to it right now, cause I am expecting it I guess. So all we did was go over what we had learned the last 2 months. (well some of it) So it was a good review! LOL

So tomorrow I am NOT going to Asheville. I am not getting up at 4am to go there. Its a 4 hour drive! No thanks! So Friday I am back to the massage place for ball class (again) and what I heard today was I will not be on my own, well that could change! We shall see! ;)

Night!

I swear if my cell phone rings one more time....

I had a brown recluse spide on the inside of my window stuck in the screen! (I think its one) But its dead now!

Ok, did anyone remind mother nature that it is spring and that it is APRIL?! Ugh! Its cold, its windy and the pollen is everywhere!!!! UGH! 50 outside in April, its usually 70-80 by now. I swear I am moving to Florida!

So anyways, my dad has his 2nd stress test today and hopefully it goes better than the last time. Ugh, lets not go there. I don't think I can take a remake of the last time! I am staying home to entertain my grandma and that hasn't been too hard. ;)

Oh some one shoot me. I washed my ipod last night! Its toast, sadly. Warrantly ran out on March 31st, my luck! I found my old ipod and will use that until I have the money to get a new one.

I swear my cell phone has been ringng off the hook the last 48 hours and I am about to throw it out the window. A friend of mine called me this morning at 9:00 to wish me a belated happy birthday, and I was half awake talking to her. LOL Then I got out of the shower and it rang again and I had said to myself before it rang that if the massage place called me to say class was cancelled tomorrow I was going to literally scream! Well guess what?! They are the ones that called me! LOL :smacks head: No not to say they cancelled classes tomorrow, to see if I could come to make up Monday on Friday. I was like I'll be there. Good thing its not for tomorrow cause we're going to the Builtmore House in Asheville. Lol See why I want to throw out the phone?!

Marci, Crystal is coming home with your birthday package. :)

That's it.

What a day!

Marci....there's Caroline and Crystal sitting on the pillows on top of the trashcan. LOL

Ok a few things. I changed my picture on top. Its my little beanies spelling out my name and plus its something new and different. ;)

Number 2 thing, there is a new ticker on here. My parents have decided to go to Colorado in early August over going back to the beach. I am PLANNED to fly out after seeing Rent the final time on August 2nd, but that could change. But I'm excited cause I haven't been out there since the year Gaia was born and can't wait to go back! WOOHOO!

So this morning I got a call this morning from the massage place and I was sitting there and was going what in the world is this all about. LOL Well it was about dance being cancelled tomorrow and I let her know that I wasn't going to be able to go because I gotta be home with my grandma tomorrow cause of my dad's test. So anyways, I got ready and such for ball class and was upstairs talking to my grandma and such. I got a call from Sharon saying she was going to be late getting to class and to go ahead and go. Well during that conversation, I heard my phone beep and didn't catch the call, looked to see who called and it was the massage place again. I was like what the heck now?! So rather than call my voice mail, I called them back to see what they needed. Well it was to let me know the instructor had a family emergency and cancelled the classes this afternoon. I was like ok, thanks. I mean if it would've been about 5 minutes later, I would've been in the car going over there. LOL

So our neighbor's got a new puppy, a little chocolate lab. They have a yellow lab that is absolutely adorable and sweet. So my parents had seen the dog and I had waited all day to see the new doggie. So on our way out to get a pizza, our neighbor was out walking both dogs and I jumped out to go meet the new puppy! She's so cute!!!!!! I walked with our neighbor to help her out with the two dogs, and she did really well on the leash and wanted to attack her big sister. Poor Willie has nothing to do with her at the moment. Ollie is the new doggie's name. So-so cute!

So thats it! I'm off here! Night!

What a very informative day....lol

Don't ask! LOL

So the weather today was crappy and yucky ugh! I stayed away from being outside today just because of what happened last night and getting sick at dance.

So this morning my dad and grandma went up to Greensboro and I didn't feel like going. I didn't want to be outside anymore than I had to be today. So I stayed home and just relaxed and did probably nothing! LOL

So today was Pilates, yay! We learned the final Primer move today and the torso twists wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Except finding where you put all your weight and such and oh yeah keeping your shoulders down! LOL I can't do that even at ball class! So we did that and also cat stretch and either I was too far gone to fix or I had it dead on, doing it today I had it down pack! I was proud of myself in getting it this week, I think. So next week we are going over all of the stuff we learned one by one. Woohoo, I think. I am thinking back to some of the things and I had problems with a few things. So we are going to set up a date and time to do the intro to reformer class. So that will be interesting, I am curious as to what it all involves other than the scary looking equipment! LOL

So after class Sharon and I went to eat dinner before the Detox seminar. We went to have pizza and it was good because I was hungry, but we were cutting it short getting back to the class. So we came back and saw some familar faces and some new ones. It was a good turn-out if you ask me. So this was very informative about what you can do to make your body better and steps you take to get it there. I think the weird part was that you are allergic to more foods than you realize and so to find out you start eliminating like the basic groups of foods and then start bringing them back and see how your body reacts. I am totally glad I went. =)

So thats about it. I am off here. I am tired and gotta finish filling out this paper so I can give it back next week. Night!
