Good morning! Coffee Cup and I are sitting here a little sore when I move but feeling good. 😀 I completed yesterdays office painting job and I am very happy with the results. My goal was to get in early and have it done before the rest of the staff started coming in and I was in their way. Mission accomplished, by 9 am when a few started trickling in I was cleaning brushes.
I had my first Zumba class yesterday afternoon and I brought 3 friends with me. We were all newbies and I assured them that if we could not do the steps – laughter burns calories too. I think I did some of both. The steps were easy once you got the hang of them but the fast paces music occasionally made it so by the time you got the step… the instructor had moved on to a different step. I loved it though and laughed a lot!
Here is a sample video I found on You Tube of Zumba:
I am so glad it is Friday today and other than the pups getting haircuts tomorrow morning and Zumba class 2 , I have a day to read and maybe do a bit of writing which currently sounds very appealing to me. My house is all clean from Tuesdays book club so I am really in a good spot to just melt into a chair and enjoy some time.
Book Journey 
What a fun workout! I’m looking forward to a date night with the hubby this wekeend!
Oh fun Michelle, we will probably watch a movie tonight or go our for dinner tomorrow evening. I was out of town last weekend so this will be fun to spend time with him. 🙂
I have always loved the idea of laughter burning calories…If not for laughter, I would be HUGE. LOL
Your office looks very gorgeous…love the color. Hey, you like green, don’t you? (Blog, office). So do I!
Have a great reading day.
I hadn’t thought about that Laurel – but yes, I guess I do like green 😀
My library at home is green too!
The Zumba looks like fun! We’re going out for fish tonight with some friends so I’m looking forward to that. Besides that I have a low key weekend too and I’m going to savor it!
That sounds fun Jo-Jo. 😀 Enjoy!
Wow, what I wouldn’t give for our ‘office’ to look like this.
It was a lot of work Terry but I love it now. Before it was a light gray that showed ever mark… I need a little color in my life 😀
Unlike Minn., we are having sunny warm days – even up to the low 60s maybe today! Our stone wall is almost finished, the thermostat is off so we’re saving money on the heating bill, everything is great! It won’t last of course but we’re enjoying it while we have it.
Nice! Our days have been ok here – we are still doing 40’s and 50’s and I am totally ignoring that they mention snow for the next two days…. 😆
Your office looks awesome. Love the paint color and all the nooks for storage. My son’s gf is really into Zumba. Have a great weekend!
Thanks Joy – I love it too 🙂
What fun that you have friends you can exercise and laugh with! 😀
It was really a lot of fun Hannah – I think we may have laughed more than worked out – but one of my friends has had a lot on her plate lately and it was great to hear her laugh and get excited! 😀
I have been taking Zumba for 6 months now and I love it. I hate having to miss a class. It is by far my favorite of workout classes with Group Kick a close second.
I think I am going to love it too Zia – I have only done the DVD before this.
I have never heard of Zumba but it looks fun. I think your office looks very professional.
It was fun and I am excited to do it again (and I am a little sore today but certainly do not tell anyone that… shhh!) LOL 😀
The paint job looks GREAT!
Thanks Kathleen – I am really happy with how it turned out.
Melting into a chair and just enjoying your book sounds like a wonderful way to spend a day!! I want to try a Zumba class now!
Staci – I know! I am looking forward to the book time 😉
How much fun. Don’t think I can move that fast anymore.
I have missed your posts. I kept thinking I’d sit down and catch up after getting home. I give up. There is no way. Guess I’ll just have to skim them and see what I missed.
On the bright side Pat, I have been busy so there are not as many to go through as there have been in the past…. I have a lot of catching up to do 😀
