Pilates

So on Wednesday I took my second Beginners Pilates class. One word for you OUCH!!! Yowsers, did my abs hurt afterward!! And my upper front thighs too. Very odd. The next day was no joy either! But at least it motivated me to go to the gym on Thursday night. I even did a bit of running while doing my 17 minutes on the treadmill. I can only job for about a minute at a time, but it made the time pass much quicker and made me feel like I was getting somewhere. So yeah me! Maybe I can keep it up. My goal for the weekend is to go to the gym once. Let's see if I can follow through on that!!!

After that I went to a friend's house to tutor her child in her multiplication tables. Tutor Math? Jenna? HA! Those may be your first thoughts, but this little girl liked the way I flashed her flash cards. So she told me that she liked how we don't end up arguing when she studies, like she does with her mom, so I thought why not? I needed a tutor when I was a kid too. I was using my fingers to add and subtract!! Mrs. Clifford tutored that right out of me. Instead I used little dots next to the numbers....I was cheeky even at a young age.

Anyhow, it was fun to go help her. We started with her 2's, which she has down pat. So now we are working on the 3's. I thought we'd start at the bottom and work out way up, so that she'll have a good base. We made flash cards, did some worksheets and I had a good time!

Jade dog stayed home. She doesn't have that many toes to count on, so the poor pup wouldn't have been any help! :)
