I have to say this was probably the best holiday I have had in years. And I didn't do a stitch of shopping until literally right before. There were several emotional freak out moments, fighting off a cold and exhaustion from the week before, and a long drive to Roseville and back yesterday. But once I was able to sit, relax, and enjoy the family moments, it was great. I took lots of great pictures, everyone in both families were present and accounted for, which hasn't happened in awhile, and it was so nice to feel good physically, feel loved and appreciated, and to give love back. Life is good. Other than missing Dad, that missing piece, it was a good holiday. New Year's will most likely be difficult, as always, since it is Dad's birthday, but I will muddle through it.
I am excited to see Kimi tomorrow in SF and do Spin and Body Flow. My body needs some hard cardio and some gentle flow. Too many sweets the last couple of days. Not enough exercise since my audition. Time to get back to it. Wednesday I am going to SF to see Alex and shadow with him during BP. I think what that means is I will be up front with him without saying anything, which is just fine with me! This is to help me get used to being in front of a class. I am BEYOND excited to see my two favorite LM people!!!!
When I think that launch is in less than 2 weeks, I start to have a freak out moment. I am still waiting to hear back from 24Hour regarding my background check (since I am a teacher, there BETTER not be anything unsavory there!!) and then I can meet with Angie again to talk about the launch and what my role will be. At this point, I know other instructors who will be team teaching that weekend in other clubs but I don't know what her plan is. She is doing the launch both Sat and Sun but the San Carlos gym has no Sunday classes. I will follow up on Wednesday or Thursday with the Operations manager at the club to see if the background check is complete.
Had a very productive day today, and I am so thankful I don't have to work this week. Slept in just a bit, after going to bed at 2am, made breakfast, went to the recycling center and took a ton of plastic bottles - got $70!!! Usually Alexander gets to keep the money but he was at a friend's house today participating in a RWC Amazing Race event all over town so guess who gets the money? I would love to put it on a Starbucks card (hahaha) but it is going in the kitty to save for our Dallas tournament in April. Flying the four of us out there won't be cheap, plus hotel, food, etc. Not to mention having to babysit 20 or so 16 year old boys....I can't wait. Then we went to the laundromat and got caught up on the backload of laundry - trying to do load after load in a small stackable just doesn't work. Did all of it quickly and had a nice lunch, just the three of us, and now Cassie and I are playing Perfection while the boys are out. Loved that game when I was young.
I feel so boring right now. Like I really have nothing interesting to say. That's a new one. Guess that's a sign to log off and put everyone out of their misery. I'll wait to write until something exciting happens.
