Yoga...part 3

Congratulate me! Pat me on the back! Give me a hand! etc....

I'm keeping up with my goal of yoga two times a week..so far. I started last Thursday, made it to class on Monday, and then to class again last night (Thursday).

Although, I'm not sure how great I was last night. Amy, the instructor, said she thought I did really well. I disagree though. The big problem was damn sinus congestion...it totally threw off my balance. And for some reason, being upside-down seemed to just aggrivate the pressure in my skull. And yoga seems to involve a lot of being upside-down. (See down-facing dog for example...) But it definately killed my already precarious balance. Falling over in class is embarassing...especially when it makes a HUGE loud crashing noise that echos off of the wooden floor and mirrored walls. Mirrored walls, by the way, make it so that no matter where you are in the room, absolutely everyone can see you when you flub-up and fall on your face or your ass.

But, I still made it, so yay for me and the little bit of motivation I've found in my life.

***Update***
For those of you who are concerned and wondering how Chuck and Ed are doing, they are settling into their new home on my desk rather well. Chuck still looks a bit harried. Kind of has a "ridden hard and put away wet" look to him at times. But the fact that he keeps trying to eat ED, I think that's a good sign that he's settling in and not letting Ed bully him around too much. I think Ed may have gone crazy yesterday though. He was literally bouncing off of the walls of their little aquarium. Maybe it's not crazy so much as brain damage at this point, but who knows...
