Hip Hop Hustle

Two posts in one day!! Wow.

My sister Sahm is teaching another fitness class. It is called "Hip Hop Hustle" and it is really dance squad for grownups. I am planning on going and am really excited about it. It starts next Monday. Keep your fingers crossed that no dumb excuses pop up to derail my ambition.

Compliments = Cake

Hi folks! Miss me?

Well, I have been up to no good, so I did not blog about it to avoid shame and guilt. Or at least to avoid accountability. Anyway, I eat too many sweets, so that has not improved much. I have not been working out AT ALL, so that is pretty ineffective. Sigh.

Today I wore a skirt and top that I have not worn since Fall and got many compliments. I didn't get compliments merely on the outfit, but on the fact that I appeared (to these observers) thin. This puffed up my head like a pastry and prompted me to celebrate with chocolate cake at lunch. I shake my head at my own rationalization and denial. I mean, how does that make sense?? I look thin so I eat cake?? Huh? Doesn't eating cake in combination with no exercise lead to NOT looking thin? I believe it does. Or, at least, it has EVERY OTHER TIME I have tried that combination. You'd think I would call "BS" on myself in those instances. But, apparently, I don't.

By the way, the cake was fantastic...
