I am really happy!

I have been working out with a personal trainer for a couple of weeks now.  I am feeling really good about it.  She is extremely encouraging and supportive.   My husband is being supportive and has said that he thinks it's working for me.
I feel much less stressed at work, despite being frustrated by things beyond my control (lack of forward momentum, etc).  I look forward to each class now.  I make it a point to start my shut down process at work at least 5 minutes early so that I can get out to the door and head for home.  I want to have time to get home, get changed and be ready to workout.

Tonight was a belly dance session. We danced to some Spanish music.  It's very uptempo and fun.  She was showing me some moves that involved raising a hip and lowering it with a "pop".  That was interesting.  I have to get it cemented in my head for next class.  Hip shimmies are fun too.  I haven't danced in many years.  I am completely loving the class!  It's well worth it to me to keep taking class.  I have more energy and feel awesome!!
