Yoga class up for grabs

I am desperately trying to give away my yoga class. I teach it Monday and Wednesday mornings at 8:00 a.m. after working till 11:45 p.m. the night before. I just get so tired and absolutely dread it. When I had Q, I retired from the class, but then got stuck filling in and now have been teaching it again for nine months. How did that happen? I feel so ridiculously tired most of the time. I have a loyal class and enjoy teaching them in a lot of ways, but for the most part I am desperate to give it up! I told my supervisor, and I think another instructor might be willing to step up. Now that I know my days are numbered, it is even harder to drag myself to class. I will still teach Saturdays and fill in here and there, but it was just far too much on my plate, and I am glad I finally spoke up.

That being said, I was very skeptical when I started teaching yoga three years ago. I have taught aerobics since sophomore year in college. But, yoga was a whole different ball game. I didn't even like it at first, but now I really feel like it has changed my body and made me stronger and more toned. I feel relaxed and refreshed after class and have definitely been won over. I doubt I will have the discipline to do a challenging hour-long session on my own at home, so I fear my body will turn into a gelatinous mass when I stop teaching. If that happens, I will demand the class back!

I am headed to Vegas this Friday for a three-day weekend with a three other girls. Two are good friends, and the other is a friend of a friend. I am excited about it, but also a bit nervous. I am the old married mom, and they are three single girls. Who do you think will be the boring one?

It won't be you... you get time off from life, so you'll live it up. Right?
