I ordered this DVD upon recommendation of a friend who loves it. I have a yoga mat. I even got a different DVD, but after watching it the first time I was grossed out by some gal who was one of the background participants whose sweat was profuse in some unmentionable areas . . . and sorry, had she worn a white or black 'tard' no one would ever have noticed. I couldn't give it another go. So, my friend said there's none of that in this one and for about $11 on Amazon, I said, "heck yeah!" and bought it. Let's just say I like the idea of being limber again. I used to be able to put my ankles around my neck. If I were limber, I could do it now (I ain't got a belly keeping me from reaching). After having three kids, I just never got back into sitting on the floor and stretching like I did. My heartburn/acid reflux and being tired nearly most of every day has me decided to kick a health kick into gear. I bet there are many who could outpace me in a mall walk. It's sad!
I hesitate to use Eastern methods, because I want to stay firmly rooted in my Catholic Faith. However, I can ignore any of that - unless it's blatant. I think it's safe to say that it isn't something being pushed in this program. I want to be limber in body, not mind. Right now, as limber as I get is my elbow bending into the cookie jar and snapping back into my gob. Yeah?
Teenie is writing her week 35 paragraph that she will upload to Seton soon. Then, all that she has left today is to upload her reading comprehension test for quarter four. Tomorrow she will take her English quarter four exam. Friday, her book report is due to be uploaded to Seton. Then, guess what? She's officially done with 7th grade! This is a really big deal here. Crickles is finishing up his book report today and tomorrow he will take his English quarter four exam, and, he'll be done with 5th grade!
Folks, ugh. Can we all say, Praise God, here? Yes! Victory is soooooooo bloody close I can taste it!

The cookie jar comment is cracking me up. That is so me.
I've never tried Yoga before. I am definitely NOT limber. Don't think I could hack it. I gave both of my huge dogs baths this weekend and have been sore for days. That's what just a little activity does to me. LOL. Time to get back on my treadmill!
Sweat spots are a big no no! So are guys in bad shorts. I have an old Kathy Smith video I did in college....the dude cracked me up every time. He was such a nerd.
Good job kids! Good job mama!
ps...thanks a bunch for my card...you sweet-thang you!!
Congrats on being almost finished with school. What a relief. Interested in knowing how the yoga goes.
As far as the yoga goes, I may have Teenie snap some pics to post here and let you all know how it's going. I have to wait for the DVD to get here - I have up to nine days to get it. I'll be walking until then (and after, likely, as I enjoy that "sport").
Jiggle jiggle wiggle wiggle my thighs go slap slap slap! I need to drop this junky look so I can enjoy HI in a one-piece!
