Give Me a Gold Star!

I did it!  Today I did it.  I signed up for a class.  Since I couldn't find the aqua arthritis class to fit my schedule I found a yoga class for people with arthritis, fibromyalgia, etc.  I actually signed up!  My class begins April 1st, and I don't even have to pay for a sitter because the timing worked out perfectly!  We'll see how I do...I know now I took the first step by signing up, but the next step is the most difficult.  I have a hard time walking into a place where I don't know anyone.  I am the biggest wallflower there is, and I know I have to get over it.  I have to not give myself excuses come April 1st to avoid the class.  I will have to remind myself that I don't want to be walking with a cane by the age of 40...that'll do it.

Other than that, I had a pretty good day.  I got my blood drawn this morning again (not that I enjoy it), but it went fast and no bruising this time - yay!  My work from home day was uneventful and allowed me to do a lot around the house.  I was a packing maniac today.  Now I feel like I'm getting somewhere. 

After my required work from home hours I went shopping at Kohls for some summer/spring type work shirts.  I can't believe it!!!!  I fit into an XL in Misses instead of a 1X in plus size shirts!!!  I can't tell you how fast I ran up to the register to ring up.  I swear, it was like if I didn't get there fast enough I would balloon in 5 minutes and be back in a 1X.  I was so happy!  I can't wait to try on the shirts tomorrow with my work pants.  No fashion show tonight though.

On my way home I stopped for some Chinese.  The dish I ordered was called Red Hot China.  There is no flavor to it, totally diappointing.  I also got an order of crab rangoon from the place.  First time for everything, last time for everything - I won't go back. 

And now on to uncork the bottle of wine and relax with the movies I rented:  Double Identity and The Goods.  More on those tomorrow...

Today I am grateful for how small and sweet my daughter looks when I wake her in the morning, that it was warm enough to wear flip flops today, and that I fit into an XL/Misses at the store!
