Monday 9:54 - 10:50 Pregnancy Yoges

I did my yoges in my spare. It is a gloomy Monday and it was easy to melt into it and not think too much. I didn't bend as much  - I just took it easy and focused on my breathing and keeping my shoulders back in the breaks.

Jonny and I did get one good walk in this weekend during a dry break. I am not going to record all my walks - that just doesn't really count as exercise. It is just walking!

Thursday Walked 3.55 km, 38:50 mins. -

This is the first time I have used the Nike App in my phone. I could have been logging all the walks that Jonny and I have done. I wouldn't usually count a walk as my regular exercise - those are just bonus everyday activities - but maybe I should start counting them? I will think about it.

I met Emma for sushi in Kits and dropped her back off at UBC. Then I stopped at the end parking lot at Spanish Banks, took out my hearing aids, put in my ear buds and went for a walk. I had just downloaded the new Dinosaur Jr. So it was a really pleasant walk. It is brisk and gloomy out but still pretty and not raining. I took a few pics using Instagram - just getting into that... stopped to pee. I had to slow down twice because Christian was moving around but other than that I had a nice pace and was feeling happy. There were a lot of old couples and dog people out. I think they are taking advantage of the non-rain. Supposedly today is the last day... the rain she comes tomorrow!!

Tuesday 10:15 - 11:10 Pregnancy Bikram

The first half of my yoges was pretty exciting because Jessie was in the studio choreographing for seniors. I had hip hop yoga going on. Then she left and I had to listen to the boring voice that I have heard over and over. 

No problems in the yoges. I guess because I move slow and hold positions it is ok. Fast movements do not work for my big belly anymore. Slow and easy wins the race. 

Good day!

Friday 1:36-2:30 Pregnancy Bikram

I had a ton of work to do but did my yoges. I skipped the spine twist at the end so I could get up and put the attendance in the computer. I'm glad I did. There was an onslaught of kids after school to order sweats. That's good. I just wish they didn't leave things to the last minute. It is so annoying!

Anywho- yoges was good. My back bending is is the worst but it will all come back. Christian was moving during the breathing at the start. I was staring hard at my belly in the mirror trying to see if it would visibley move.

Wednesday 1:40-2:40 Pregrenancy Bikram

I haven't done this in a while. I haven't done in my studio since last June. It is nice to be back in the studes. T'ea and Andrea were choreographing by the white board and the stereo and towards the end Latisha and Calvin came in and started getting ready for Juniors. I am really stoked on how seriously they are taking this and how prepared they are for their X Block.

As for yoges - It went well. It felt good to stretch and work those muscles that I don't get to everyday in class. I am looking forward to using most of my spares from now till I leave to do the yoges.

Tuesday 5:30-6:30 Street Jazz - Jo

Well, I think that was officially my last dance class at Harbour until the after the baby. I am too big. I couldn't do the dance full out. I was basically just marking it. I guess that is still good for my brain but it is hard on my dance ego. It isn't fun dancing half assed. It is like trying to dance with an injury - no fun. You might as well just wait until you are better and then giver 110% again. Before I left I was thinking that I might as well go and dance when I still can cause I am just going to get bigger - but it really isn't worth it for me. I am still going to try and go for a run - because I haven't done that since I was sick... but I am pretty sure I will learn that I am now a walker. I think I just have to focus on getting through teaching at school and call it a day. I need to enjoy chilling - I never chill - and there will be no chill time after!

Sunday 10-11 Yoges - Derrek

Wow! I haven't been to Harbour in two weeks. Jonny and I have been so sick. I did get exercise at school teaching dance... so much I could hardly walk the first weekend back. This week I have guest teachers coming in to teach some of the classes so I am hoping I can get back to Harbour a few times during the week.

Yoges was good. I am pretty big now and I have to stay at level one of some postures. I was still able to work up a sweat and get some good stretching and strengthening in.

This was my first class with my hearing aids. Sure is nice to hear Derrek and not have to look up and see what he is doing.

When I got home Jonny had flowers for me and a Subway sandwich. I have the best husband ever!!
