willPower...well, maybe...

So we cracked open the freezer tonight and had the leftover Meatloaf Pie that we had tossed in there as we were flying out the door on the way to the airport for vacation about a month ago:) It tasted just fine, however, it wasn't very photogenic...so I decided to skip the photo of dinner tonight and talk about a few other new things from today:

1.-My New Workout Class for the night...
So I was supppppperrrrrrrr psyched because my gym began offering a "willPower & Grace" class and I decided to try it out tonight. It was described as a combination of yoga, pilates, dance & martial arts....I figured "Hey, I like all those things (well, I'm not quite a 'martial artist', so to speak;), so I'll try it out!" And I also was intrigued because the class was taught barefoot, so I foresaw a lot of down dog & tree pose.....

WRONG-O....apparently the other exercise you can do repeatedly in bare feet is SQUATS! LOTS & LOTS & LOTSSSSSSSSS OF SQUATS! I swear, we did a half hour straight! Wow....not exactly what I was expecting, especially considering I went in a weeeee bit hungry. NOT the brightest of ideas! ;) Apparently the "willPower" part comes in because 'you do so many hard moves that you have to fight yourself not to quit'...and the "grace" is from trying not to fall on your ass while your flailing all over in bare feet.

Well, I didn't quit (and I wanted to! Very verrrrrrrrrry badly!) and I didn't fall over...so I guess you could call it a success???? I'd try it again (eventually;), just this time I'd bring a hair tie and have a SNACK BEFORE HAND! ;) hahahahahahhahaa....

2.-Even Tastier Leftovers...
So how else would you reward yourself after nearly dying (BUT NOT FALLING! SCORE!) in an exercise class?? My answer: One last slice of coconut birthday cake!

I am officially SO. OVER. CAKE. at the moment! I don't want to see cake for a month and a half! However, I had to relish in one last piece of the my love's coconut beauty:)

Delicious down to the last fabulously coconut bite!
3.- And Finally: My Dog, Penny...
Just cause she's so damn cute...That embroidered bone I got her for Christmas was the best ridiculously overpriced dog toy I could have purchased;)

Well, this gorgeous weather has inspired me to go on my first "spring" jog of the year tomorrow morning. Let's see if I can willPower & grace myself through that one!!
I'm off to catch up on the drama of "The Real Housewives of NYC"...those girls are C.R.A.Z.Y this year!! Have a great night!
