The Art of Balance

I'm seriously getting concerned about my balance. My wobbly knee doesn't help. I really want to take a Tai Chi class, but there is none in the 60 mile radius that includes Bloomington-Normal and Springfield. Bah. I just tried Champaign-Urbana, which is about an hour from here, and found some. It's even at a time when I can take it, but it's in the middle of a session right now. And it's free! I need to remember to check and see if they'll have Summer or Fall classes.

In the meantime, though, I read a Prevention article that recommended ballet classes. The Lincoln Park District has a Bar class that's similar to barre in ballet. It's $4 a class, so I might as well try it. There also is a Yoga class in town (at the same time. It figures.)

Mimi

Mimi got into a big fight with Zara this morning. It was a particularly bad one. I broke it up and promptly fed them because Mimi is the most fractious when she's hungry. But after she ate, she picked another fight with Zara.

I'm at my wit's end and have just about had enough. (Zara, I'm sure, has had more than enough.) I'm starting to think that this isn't going to work out, and I should return Mimi to the Humane Society. That makes me feel awful for Mimi, but I don't know what else to do. I'll think about it.

I went thrifting today and picked up three tops, plus a really cute cardigan sweater that would look good with jeans or navy pants.

I went to Aldi's while I was hungry and without a list, so I came home with lots of stuff :) I thought about eating out, but decided to get one of Aldi's french bread pizzas to eat at home. I usually don't get it because it's $2, but it was still cheaper than eating out. I also obeyed Zara's dictate that I not buy Aldi's cat food.

I need to make a grocery list and go back out to WalMart. I might close my eyes for a few minutes first (uh oh).

No Place Like Home

I decided to stay home tonight. It's too cold (42F), misty (although that seems to have stopped), and generally blah out. I'll go to the store tomorrow. I did make my list though.

I'm feeling kind of blah too.

I decided to audit the Python course.
