Project 365. Day One-Oh-Nine: Dance Pance (I need to do stuff)...



I need to do stuff....like....

1)spruce up the blog
2)rock the last 2 1/2 weeks of school
3)clean
4)organize
5)get rid of stuff
6)papers,projects,finals
7)soak up ASC
8)check things off list(s)
9)
10)
11)
12)
13)

I could fill a list a mile long. Lots is happening but, it's all good.
One day at a time--windows down, music playing, lots of hugs and coffee shops-- one day at a time.

One project on my list is for my dance class, each group has to choreograph a dance to perform in front of the class as part of the final. I was video taping our practice today when I accidently took a picture of one of the girls in the group, whoops. Thus, Project 365, Day 109.

Speaking of dance class, I had my sit-up's skills test today which, I'm proud to say, I got 100% on. That's 50 crunches in 1 minute. It's okay, I'm allowed to brag b/c I totally didn't expect to get 100%. I celebrated by eating a nice carby meal for dinner haha.

Jason and I finally have gotten an evening to do absolutely nothing except relax. We had dinner and watched Remember the Titans, and now we're watching Everybody Loves Raymond.

Welp, commercial is over!Back to relaxing w/ da Hubs!

P.s. I've dropped the ball on Youtube Tuesday a couple times now so, here ya go!

Project 365. Day Sixty-Eight: Miles to go before I sleep...

Okay, not really. But, I did run a mile this morning for my dance class which made me very sleepy. It's basically the same thing. Might I add that I ran that mile in 11 minutes and 34 seconds ? Yeah, I know that's nothing to brag about to any of you, especially those of you that run. But...

a)I'm not what one would consider a runner. Though I like to imagine myself being able to climb a flight of stairs w/o getting winded and/or being able to run.
b)I shaved a good 2 minutes off from my practice run
c)I think I did pretty good and I know I pushed myself. I managed to get myself a lot farther before stopping to walk a few feet.
d)I didn't give up even when it felt like an elephant was sitting on my chest wanting to wake up Mr. Asthma OR when my legs felt like noodles.
e)Even though I figured I'd walk some, my whole goal for today was to beat my time from my practice run. Which I did...by 2 minutes.
f)And I ran even though I didn't have to.

So, I'd say 11 minutes 34 seconds is pretty good if you ask me!
But then the run was over and my legs still felt like noodles. And I was/am tired.

Apparently, this is what I look like as fatigue slowly creeps onto me while waiting for lunch...






GOOD night!

Project 365. Day Sixty-Seven: Denim and Diamonds...

Whew! It was hard to narrow it down to just a few photos from this weekends dance(which is what I just managed to do)! Please, enjoy in some of our merriment as I have much to do it seems (I say "seems" since I tend to build up to-do lists in my head until I'm barely able to function). Today is a Monday after all. I've declared it "No Makeup Monday" but really, most days are. Or maybe it should be "No Mess Monday" ? Or how about "No More Mondays Monday" ? In any case, it's a Monday. But that's okay because tomorrow is Tuesday, and not Monday, and much closer to Friday. Did you follow that ? Good :) Side note: I gave Jason a nightmare about my indecisiveness last night. Guess I should make more decisions! And to start, I'm deciding to show you pictures from the dance right...now!

The hair, which I'm proud to say, I did all by myself...





The going to dinner...




The groovin'...



The girls...



The Wil Group Leader...



The boy affectionately called Hubs...





Hope you're having a good Monday!

Project 365. Day Thirty-Nine: A Mish-Mash...

That update I'd mentioned...

It's not a huge update but, I wanted to brag. It's basically common knowledge. Here it is:

Fact: I have the greatest husband in the world.

This is the part of the blog that I'd like to entitle, "I Could Have Danced All Night" :

Last Wednesday started out as an ordinary day. I started the day by going to my dance class (mmm exercise and sore muscles). After I got out of my last class of the day, I went with Chelsea to a hip-hop class (a last minute decision). I hadn't been able to get a hold of Jason to give him a heads up so I just left him a message. Now, let me just say... it has been a LONG time since I've done two dance classes in one day. I signed up for hip-hop but it turned out to be a aerobic intensive, hip-hop fusion class. It was my near death experience for the week since we danced at supersonic speed for an hour. I checked my phone at the end of class and Jason told me very vaguely that I needed to hurry home, we had somewhere to be at 7:30pm (class got out at 6:30pm). "Oooookay. Do I need to look slighltly less disgusting?" "You need to be a little dressy". Sweat dries fast though right? So I get home and oh my goodness. He stepped out from the bedroom all dressed up and looked so handsome. He took my breath away. Yep. Heart throb (if he's reading this,he's totally rolling his eyes right now...). I got ready really really quickly and we were out the door! I had no idea what was going on but, I love a good surprise and Jason's surprises are always extra good :) Next thing I know, we're at Rudder Theater see a ballet/jazz show called "A Cinderella Story"-- a 1950s rendition of the classic. Go ahead ladies, swoon. Be jealous. :) I love my husband more each day!

Here we are shortly after finding our seats :)



Post dance classes, styling my new Breakaway tshirt...





This is the part of the blog that I like to call "Today":

A mid-afternoon storm rolling in...



My view while waiting to pick Jason up from his office for lunch..





Mmm delightful life!
Off to finish learning about learning disabilities!
Then sleep !

Project 365. Day Twenty-Seven: I'm going to be sore tomorrow...

Well, week two of the semester is coming to the end. Today, we officially started doing stuff in my dance class. My body didn't see it comin'. I'm already sore which leads me to believe that I'll be very sore tomorrow. But, it's SO nice to be back in a dance studio again :)

This is our pantry door that I've decorated with my assignment schedules for each class...


These are...well, they're my feet which are tired along with the rest of my body.


Time to sleep so I can wake up to feel how sore all my muscles are :)
