Days Twenty four and Twenty five: In the Homestretch:)

Last night was our annual Candy Cane Gala - one of two signature events for the Foundation. So that meant a 630 am yoga class yesterday, which I completely blagged because I had so much on my mind and a long day and evening ahead of me with the Gala and all. I find I don't do well with weekday morning classes. I anticipate the day too much and I find it hard to focus. Weekends are fine because my brain pretty much shuts down about 2 pm on Friday afternoon anyway. So even though I felt I didn't really do a great job in yesterday's class, in reality I feel like I did two hot yoga classes. One at 630 am, and one later on in the day when I struggled into my SPANX in preparation for the party. My biggest fear in life is that someone somehow video taped that - well the only word for it is "procedure" - and posted it on YouTube. That was the biggest workout of the day by far and it took about 40 mins for my face to return to its normal pallor.

Very late night last night after a day of walking around on concrete floors at the Convention Centre, so needless to say, yoga this morning didn't happen. Took the morning off of work and indulged in a lovely lie-in. Rolled out of bed around 11 am and went to our CEO's house for our annual staff Christmas get together. It's a much-anticipated afternoon of wine and Butter Chicken - which I enjoyed very much. We all ate ourselves into the ground and everybody wanted naps afterwards. Honestly, I could barely keep my eyes open...and the thought of going to an evening yoga class seemed impossible. But I did it. I hit the 8 pm "Karma Class", which was a good one to take because maybe no one really minded that I was sweating curry.  Yes...I was THAT person today. But I did it and now I only have one class to catch up on to put me back on skedge.  Tomorrow I'll hit a 10 am and then a 2 pm "Restorative Yin" class. I think it's pretty easy going. Last week I saw the people coming out at the end of that class and everyone was a little older and no one was sweaty.  Sounds like the perfect double down catch up class to me:)  So maybe it's cheating a little. But it still counts!!!! $50 says I fall asleep during it.

Nite All!
