I must be crazy!

Hi Everyone,


I've finally caved to the pressure and am starting - I can't believe I'm saying this - a blog. I'll be honest. I don't believe in blogs. Unless you're traveling - because that's fun and interesting. But I just don't think that anyone really has that much to say. Not even me;)


However, after the frenzy of October's "mascara recommendation" on Facebook, maybe there is room for some more lighthearted, girlie nonsense on the web. And also - that mascara has changed lives.


On Monday I'll be starting my first 30 Day Hot Yoga Challenge and beginning Monday, November 7th, I'll have to complete 30 hot yoga classes in 30 days. That's, like, an average work week of being drenched in sweat, in pain and confused. But enough about my staff meetings...


I'm allowed to miss a day but then I have to double up on another day. I have visions of me coasting through November and then frantically doing 15 classes on December 6th - trying to push myself through the renal failure!


I wanted to kick start my winter fitness program and thought this was a great way to be held accountable. My name will go on a chart along with a group of "real athletes" at http://calgary.mokshayoga.ca/ and every class I finish will result in a gold star next to my name. If I skip, I'll get a big gaping hole of failure next to my name. 


Please make no mistake, I know I will probably not make it. And I will absolutely cry at some point. But I am going to get outside my comfort zone and try my best. For me, this is something worth chronicling because as busy women (and gay men - because let's face it, I know my audience:) trying to excel at our careers or get the kids to their 200 practices and social engagements a week - or both - life is bonkers and we're not perfect.  So let's talk about it. 


Wish me luck.
