back in the saddle...

after a couple of weeks of no zumba, i returned tonight to another fun and lively class.  i have to say that after my first post about how much i loved zumba, the following sessions weren't as good as the first.  i was even thinking of not going tonight, but i decided to go and heytelled mary at the last minute if she wanted to join.**PROPS TO MARY**she at first said no b/c she and her fam were on their way to dinner.  and then she quickly heytelled me back and said she would be there!  the girl turned the car around to make it to class!!  girrrrrl, i would've kept on driving and sat my happy booty down for a yummy bj's dinner!

anyway, my sister happened to be at my house right before i left and she looked me up and down and asked, "is that how you're going?  is that the new look?"  ummm....what?  mind you, she isn't exactly into fashion so i wasn't sure exactly what she was getting at, but thanks anyway :/  i then arrive to zumba class and the instructor ran past me, laughing!, pointing at me and said, "hey!!?"  as if she was surprised to see me back and she won the pool she and her partner had going if i would ever come back.  yes, lady i'm back and ready to DO THIS!  class starts and the booty shakin' begins.  it's going good...i'm enjoying it and feeling the burn.  i watch the instructor, who i might add has some junk in the trunk aaand just all around.  and i'm just amazed at how much movement is going on!  i keep wondering, "am i doing this correctly?  b/c i don't feel like my body is going in every direction this lady is going!"  don't get me wrong, i have stuff jiggling, but it's a bunch of flab.  this lady on the other hand has the rump-shaker, her chachas doing their own dance, and she keeps flinging her head around like she's on a rock stage.  i barely have enough extra energy to yell out when she asks, "how are y'all doin?  i can't here youuuuuuu!"  then the instructor's partner shows up and this girl pops on that stage and goes from zero to 60 like that!  she is jumping, bouncing all over the place, hands are flailing....i just have to laugh (and try to keep up).  it's such a fun way to exercise and highly recommend giving it a go!  my goal is to go twice a week...i need you lovelies to keep me accountable!  i'm trying to think of a way to make that happen...any ideas?  my class is every tuesday and thursday.  so, i will try to post every tuesday and thursday night and let y'all know if i made it.  if i don't go i should have to post something...do something??  would love some feedback!

why is it back IN the saddle and not back ON the saddle...hmmm...

i don't think i brushed my teeth today :O
