Are you ready to Zumba?


A Zumba Extravaganza it was.  Well I signed up for it and I went.  I must admit I was a little hesitant at first. I did text my daughter twice before going in, and I went in twice and came back out. I actually feared going in.  You see this was my first time attending a Zumba class yet alone a extravaganza!  I put my fears on hold and walked in!

Our host thanked Tina for organizing the event, an instructor took the stage, and the music took over! 

I'm telling you that is all it took, to hear that music makes you want to move.  Here I was, now all my moves were not synced but all the same I was to the beat.  As I continued some of the sets I synced with, I had the movements going along with the instructor and most of the crowd.  I was moving and sweating.  After about five sets I went to the seating area rested and hydrated.

I felt good, I am so glad I did not let fear get the better of me.  So back on the floor I went.  Each instructor led 4 to 5 sets.  Some sets I finished standing, others from the sidelines.  

One thing I did do though was bought a Zumba shirt and bracelet.  And I inquired about how to sign up for a Zumba class in my area.  I found Zumba has a website http://www.Zumba.com  You can go there put in your zip code and locate a class near you.  If you have any fears of doing this like I did, throw them to the wind.  This is the best thing for men, women and children alike.  It is really a family affair that everyone can get involved and get the health benefits of exercising as well as family fun and togetherness.

Well I for one am going to sign up for a class, and hopefully purchase my first Zumba pants there.  Oh and with Zumba outfits, the more colors the better.  I just love that!!

Are you ready to Zumba!

How About You

How About You...

Well I am now the proud great-grandmother of a seven pound 20 ounce baby boy.  My granddaughter and her son are still in the hospital, but I understand they are doing well.  Thank you Jesus! God be the Glory! 

Work was very stressful as usual, the program manager that took up residence in our office basically so that civility could be maintained is now moving to a office of his very own.  Well done! Congratulations! for him is in order, as he is happy having remarked, "I finally get my own office".  He is a young guy, he is moving up the ladder, on the fast track in this company.  

I remember when the announcement came that he had been promoted to head of the financial division the other applicant for that position that obviously was not chosen, walked-off the job! Being such a small island, it was noted that this individual did find another very lucrative position with another company, something occurred while in that job that this person did not agree with and she walked again. Strange, but not because turns out this is her m.o.

I am hopefully going to meet with a friend and fellow business marketeer on Saturday, to brainstorm and possibly do some joint demo sessions of our products. I hope to fill in some dates on the calendar of partnering demos with her. Say it, claim it, its yours.  

I know I am embracing life again, maybe not yet at full force ahead but it's coming; I am getting there.  Today  was one of my better days.  

How about you? Have you recently or are you currently dealing with something that is hard to bear, or carry alone? I am talking to you.  I am here for you, I am going through this but I am not alone, and I am here to tell you, you are not either; talk to me, comment on this blog, lets go through life's ups and downs together!

I support you, and I am supported!
