Caitlyn and I stepped out of our "box" on Friday and went to Hot Yoga ... the only Yoga that I have done previous to this has been on the WII!! It was an hour long and in a room of 90+ degrees. Some of the people in that room were pretzels in disguise ... I am convinced! No human could stand so high on their tippy toes!! Our instructor was Grady ... I must admit they were VERY accommodating to "newbies" and we felt very comfortable (until we got 1/2 way through :). After it was done Grady asked us how we liked it ... I told him that I wished I had worn my watch so I would know how much torture I had left ... I thought I was being funny ... no one laughed :( I was being truthful ... I really did wish I had worn a watch, but I'm pretty sure thats the point of Yoga ... I think you are supposed to "lose yourself" and not care about time. Well, lets just say that when I had sweat pouring off of my head ... I wanted to know how much longer I would be sweating. I, personally, think thats why they make the clock so big at all professional sports :) I think that Cat and I will go back for the Beginners Week where we can go as many times in a week for $10. We did enjoy it, once it was done, and felt very relaxed ... sore, but relaxed.
In the meantime, I will continue my WII Fit exercising. I enjoy the games in between the Yoga exercises and based on my BMI on the program .. its doing something??? With all of the football games this weekend I have gotten A LOT of WII Fitness in!! I am pretty darn sore! I did finally break down and clean the house today. I am embarrassed to admit that we still had Christmas decorations up .. not all of them, but the garland and bows which pretty much decorates the entire front of the house. So, after my exercising I broke down and took down Christmas. Since it was 60 degrees out it was easier to do :)
Dan received word this last week that he will probably receive his orders next week. We are praying for Portsmouth, VA, but we'll make it work with wherever it is. We have been so blessed to be in one location for so long. Caitlyn wants him to get a job in Hawaii :)
Caitlyn starts her conditioning for school soccer this week. She will have conditioning 2 days a week until tryouts in the end of February ... in between that she will play her indoor team, the old mommas team with me :), and start practicing for her advanced spring league. I have a feeling that our upcoming months will be quite busy!! She is currently at the Avatar 3D movie with a friend ... I have heard great things about it so I hope they enjoy it.
Unlike most states VA has a requirement that you cannot get your drivers license until (1) you are 16yrs and 3 months and (2) have had your permit for 9 months minimum ... so Cat cannot get her "real" drivers license until April 5th. We are all looking forward to her getting her license with the number of activities she is in! She will drive the T-Bird. I bought it new in 1997 and its been a great car ... its also heavier than you can imagine. I always felt save driving it considering I could barely open the doors :) She is taking her behind the wheel training at school right now and she is driving quite a bit with Dan and I.
Dan is fixing Filet Mignon (he got it for $2/lb ... he bought a lot of it!!) and potatoes so its a good thing I worked out so much today :) It smells fantastic!!
Take Care and Best Wishes To Everyone!!
Dan, Heidi, Cat, Gunner, Liberty and Stanley
PS - the season premier of 24 is on tonight!!! We are psyched!! We love this show!
