If you missed it, I did a Yarn Along earlier this week!

Another thing I’ve been doing is going to dance class. Yes, I have started back, at a great studio, with a fabulous teacher. At the end of class on Wednesday night (in which I did a single pirouette, go me), I felt great. I called my sister afterwards and said, “That was such a great class! I have so much energy! I was pumped!”
“That’s what exercise is supposed to feel like,” Melanie said.
Well, shut me up. I guess I’ve been missing that for 37 years….
So I’ll be going to dance class on Wednesday nights from now on. Woo woo!

I did have dance as a kid. But the only athletic goal I ever had was to get into pointe shoes, and I figured, since that’s the only athletic thing I’ve ever wanted, maybe I should….try to do that? So I’m trying.
I have a foam roller, a massage ball, and a theraband for working on foot and ankle strength. I am committed,!
And warm up booties! :)
Check out first position in the Bloch booties, y’all. :)

OK, so simplicity stuff.
September always makes me think about routine and rhythm and changes I want to make (hence, dance classes). And I thought, you know, I might as well write about these things. Because I think we can all use ideas on how to focus on what really matters, right? To give ourselves margin and to stop the crazy comparison game?
Now, I’m not married and I don’t have kids. I’m just gonna point that out. That makes some things easier for me—as in, I’m only responsible for myself and my own laundry. :) But at the same time, it also makes things harder, because everything is on me. I don’t have a husband to help me out.
That being said, I think that I can still share some things that I’ve found to be worthwhile. So I will share them with you!

I’m so ready for pro football to start. I’m so glad college football has come back. Sports doldrums are over!

I’ve been looking for some new movies to watch lately. What have you loved that I need to see? Share in the comments!
