Two Discoveries

I made two good discoveries yesterday.

First, I found a new place to eat on Saturdays - other than Pizzoodles - so I can hide from MTU. I had a cup of black beans and rice and a salad and brought my own dressing. So, I think I was pretty good. Of course, D. sitting across from me chowed on chicken wings dripping with gooie sauce, and to make them extra tastie she showered them with salt. Oyie! She was thinking of getting fries too, and of course, I said, "Hey, get your fries. I'm okay with that." Inside,though, I was praying she wouldn't because while I can resist chicken wings, the fries would be way too easy to pick up and munch one or two, or five. But, my meal tasted good, and they are open until 3 on Saturdays and are only a five minute walk from work. So, I'm saved!

On my way back from lunch I found my other great discovery - a yoga studio a mere 5 minutes from work. Of course, I'm only over here a few days a week, but I think I might still drive over and try out a class during the week when I'm not working away from home. I'm way to old for ballet these days and so a few years ago I started taking yoga classes when I could find them, but eventually, for whatever reason, the classes would end and I'd be back to using a video. You get so much more from a class, and while it's not dance classes like I took in my teens and 20s, it is still a wonderful workout, great for strength and stretching.
