#513 it's worth it

Last night the wind was howling and it was snowing and I snuggled deeper into my bed under the covers and thought about how much I dislike the cold. This morning when I woke up, there was a little snow on the ground, but the sky was clear and blue and even though it wasn't really warm, it was nice. I did my Yoga X workout, then took Osi out for a walk. I overdressed for the walk and was all sweaty when we were done!

Speaking of sweaty, the Yoga X workout is a sweat-inducing mother! I was dripping sweat, literally dripping sweat onto my yoga mat half an hour into the 90 minute workout. The first 45 minutes are moving asanas (I don't know if that's the right word, I can't remember) then the last 45 minutes are balance poses and stretching. Still strenuous, but not as sweaty as the first part. Gosh I feel good when it's done, though! No knee pain because the blood is just moving so freely and beautifully through my body. It's lovely.

I mentioned yesterday that my sister-in-law and her sweetheart, Dennis, visited us this weekend. This morning Dennis was looking at some of our vacation pictures and he saw this one in particular:

He asked MT who the girl was in the picture. "That's Red!" my husband exclaimed. Dennis couldn't believe it. I came down the stairs just then and Dennis looked at me and said, "Good job! I didn't even recognize you in this picture." I've only known him for about a year, so he didn't know Big Red. It made me feel good.

Speaking of feeling good, today I was wearing some jeans that I like a lot, but they were baggy. They usually fit pretty snug. I gained .5 lbs at WW last week, but I think I'm losing inches. I think I mentioned on Friday that I got to cinch my belt up a notch. That made me feel happy! P90X is kicking my ass, but it's doing good things to it too :o)

That's all for today. I want to download a CD from iTunes. Have you heard of ADELE? I've heard a couple of songs of hers, and I must have the music. She has a cool voice.
