An Update on Life:

An Update on Life:

I have gotten a new job and been here for a while now.  I am on my feet 8 hours a day and I am glad as all get out to have it.
I have been out of commission on my dancing for a few weeks due to a foot injury and I am just now getting back on track for that.  I am still being careful not to over do it.  But I have to get moving again.  I HAVE TO.
My weight loss is slow but its still there (kind of).  I am about 35lbs down from where I started... Maybe a little more now. I haven't weighed since going to the doc about 2 weeks ago.  then I was about 37lbs down.  But i always fluctuate between 1 and 2 lbs so I am just going to say 35lbs until I get closer to be 40lbs down. 
I am increasing my dancing again this week for the next 6 weeks.  I am going to be there almost everyday of the week (except Fridays... yep that will be my day off of dancing for now.)  I am feeling better in life and I am giving props to the ladies I dance with for this as well as the dancing itself.  They are the most supportive people I have ever had the pleasure of being grouped with.  I have to say I think that ad on facebook all that time ago for Sizemology was a blessing.  God was throwing exercise in my face with it.  And He was telling me it was going to be fun and easy to stick to.  (not always easy physically but fun enough to not give up). 

I never thought of myself as a good dancer.  I feel awkward sometimes but I really love it.  It has become one of the things i look forward to.  even if its been a hectic day at work, I always WANT to go.  Again, I feel that is partially credit for the lovely ladies that have become friends to me. 
I want to thank them for being so supportive.  For telling me when I am doing something right.  Or when I correct something I was doing wrong.  It  makes me feel good about myself for getting it right. 
Today, when I am so stressed about everything else in the world, this support group is always there to make me smile.  I feel a connection with them that I have not felt in a while. 
I have support at home with the hubs, who will do anything to make sure I get to do what I want when it comes to dance.  Making sure I have funds to keep doing so even if its a struggle, because he knows I need it to be a healthier, happier me. 
Its like physically good for me as well as a mental release in a lot of ways.  And I have to say that for a group of women, we get along so well.  the dynamic is perfect.  Most groups of women end up catty to one another.  So thanks, ladies for being so COOL. 

I am still trying to get some business for Wonderland Tutus and More... it is not taking off like I thought it would.  I gave up on etsy.... i never got any hits for any of our stuff.  I am relying on Facebook and my friends to spread word.  If I ever get money, i will splurg on advertising on Facebook.  I hope that happens one day so we can build our business.  I miss my bestie so much and she is amazing at making tutus.  so keep the word out for anyone needing gift ideas or anything on that front too. 

thanks for reading my babbling.  :)
