TGIF

Today is my rest day from yoga, and I'm actually ecstatic about that.  This week has been great, but it has kind of been kicking my ass.

While my classes have been going really well, and I'm finally into the yoga groove, I've found myself being really tired during my workdays.  It's not easy going to a majority of 8pm classes, as I'm not home until 10pm, then probably not in bed till 11pm.  And while I'm getting enough restful sleep (I think), I still find myself waking up really tired.  It could just be because the classes themselves take a lot out of me.  I make sure not to eat a lot once I'm back from class either.  The last thing I want is a full belly when all I want to do after class is crash into my bed.
I've been getting hungrier earlier in the day too, so I'm eating lunch around noon or 1pm.  It's no surprise as to why halfway through class my tummy starts grumbling, so I've been eating little portions of something after class just to settle me.

I don't think I'm going to make the 26 classes.  What with missing days due to sickness and the holiday weekend, and general errands like house hunting...I think I've set myself back too many days to be able to make it up completely.  I just realized that I have a co-worker's baby shower to go to tomorrow, and next week Wednesday is graduation day where I work too, and we are going to a free preview night of Halloween Horror Nights.  Maybe if I get to come in later in the day the day after graduation (as my boss is the shit and lets us do such things), I may be able to squeeze in a 10am next Thursday before work.  We shall see!

Either way, I'm not kicking myself about it.  The challenge isn't really about finishing or "winning", it's just to boost your practice and challenge yourself.  If I come away with 24 or 25 classes at the end, I'll still be pretty happy with how I did, and how I even managed to pull out that many with the lack of days available to me in the first place!


Tomorrow will be a happy day all around, I hope.  It's my co-worker and his wife's baby shower, and I've been gushing for them ever since I found out they were expecting.  I can't wait until their little nugget arrives, and we get to meet him or her.  They both don't have family in town, so I'm glad that all the work peeps are banding together to show them our love and support. 

Tomorrow is also the day that myself and the girls will be finding out about this potential house.  I hope a decision is made in our favour.  I've had good feelings about this house, and felt that we made a good impression.  But we shall see...Fingers crossed!!


Happy Weekend!
