ANOTHER FABULOUS FRIDAY (I HOPE)

You haven't heard much from me this week.  I haven't done much shopping this week and when I have, I haven't had much luck.  I must of used it all up with my buys last weekend!  Well, I hope that luck comes back for tomorrow.  I'm headed with my antiquing friend back up to the O'Fallon, Illinois area to shop the shops there and then head over to Mascoutah to check out Popsy's Trading Post for the first time.  We went to The Painted Horse a couple weeks ago, but it was just before they opened their carriage house for the spring, so we're headed back to check it out!  I'm hoping we find a yard sale or two along the way too!  Oooh, or maybe a rummage sale!  I've got to get on craigslist and do some checking.  I also have an app for my phone, Garage Sale Rover, you should check out.  The Belleville News Democrat also has an app for garage sales.  I'm like a girl scout, prepared!

I did make it to ZUMBA three times this week!  And that's two weeks in a row that I've made it to three classes, but who's keeping track (I am actually).  I LOVE getting my dance on!  I spent a lot of time in dance spots in my early 20's, maybe some of you from the area remember Mr. A's and The Elevator in Belleville.  Anyway, what fun getting my exercise and reliving my disco days, both at the same time!  And actually, I think my zumba deal is quite the bargain!  I go to Curves for Zumba class, but I am not a member.  They have this great deal where non-members can purchase a punch card for $20 and take 6 classes with it.  I like this pay-as-you-go option.  My life is anything but routine where I know I can go to a class at a specific time week after week or that I will even make it to class every week.  And I hate when I'm paying for something that I'm not using.  Ugh, the guilt.  So I think its a great buy that I only pay when I go, and if I don't go, I don't pay.


For instance, I usually go on Monday and Friday mornings at 9 a.m. (and on Tuesday evenings at 6 p.m.) but I can't go tomorrow morning (hellooo, I'm shopping!) so I went at noon today instead.  So, off shopping I go tomorrow with no guilt, I got my 3 days in baby!  Classes are held at a variety of times with a variety of instructors.  I was worried about catching on to the songs and dance moves and yet, also afraid of getting bored by the repetition of songs and steps.  But they do a great job of repeating enough of the steps and songs as for it not to be hard to learn but they mix it up and change the tunes often enough that you don't become bored either.  Hey, I've found out that "I'm Sexy and I Know It" (the song, not me, really)  It's been a LONG time since I've done any exercise on this regular of a basis.  Get this, I actually look forward to it!  Ok, not quite as much as I look forward to shopping but its a close second!
