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?
