re:yet another attempt

Well, I finally have some of my heart's desires fulfilled.One being I started singing lessons 2 Mondays ago, not happy I'm a soprano, but I guess that's the way God made me. The second thing is I finally found someone to go to aquasize with, my friend Sue did not want to go to aquasize. Anyhow, this new person is into deep water aquasize and I told her I'm short so she said there were life jacket. And I'm thinking this ought to be interesting....
I did manage to save 200 hundred dollars towards my goal of having 400 dollars saved this year but we'll see what I ended up spending it on. I do need a new vacuum and of course a bed would be nice.
We'll see how it goes.
Hope everybody ought will be encouraged to keep trying exercises till they find the one their bodies actually enjoy, for me it it mostly likely aquasize because I find it the most fun and I feel so light when I'm in the water.
Have a good day

Re:Curves

Well that was short lived. I managed to make it 7 times within one month. Pretty proud of it. But then life got in the way. I was asked to rake a lawn in which I then ended up with back pain and had to back out of that and back out of curves, well I didn't really try to back out of Curves but after the way the week went it just seemed too hard to keep up. But I did get a revelation on how truly out of shape I am, I mean not even being able to rake a yard should probably tell me something.
So now I have to do things the old fashioned way, went with Opal to the mall yesterday and walked around the mall for about 15 minutes, then I came home and walked 30 min. on the treadmill.
Today I was over at Mom's and got another 30 min. walk in, this time outdoors.
Still looking for a partner to workout at the city rec centers, I'll update you as to how that goes.
Anyway, wasn't a total downer, did manage to get in 2 walks so far this weekend.
Hoped people liked seeing the few posts of jewellery, etc. I put up on the previous post.
Take Care.

Just for fun
