I had a wonderfully relaxing weekend. I moved around a lot on Saturday (spinning, farmers market and a walk at the lake) and then rested all Sunday. I had some trouble finding ways to fill my days (especially when I really wanted to move around, but knew I should just relax and let my blisters heal!), but it worked out alright and now I’m almost done with my book (reading lolita in tehran).

Of course, now I feel totally behind on life again! Actually, I’ve been feeling that way for a while. I’ve been focusing a lot on getting myself back into all my regular exercise and other things have taken the back seat. I didn’t send my grandpa a card for father’s day (I called, but I still felt bad), I still haven’t picked out a wedding gift (or shower gift for that matter… though I think it’s all gonna roll into one big fun something) for Jenni and Dave, there are birthdays coming up that I haven’t even thought about cards for, e-mails I’d like to write and send that I don’t know when I’ll actually write, and people I’d like to catch up with online or on the phone that I just haven’t contacted yet. Hopefully I’ll feel more caught up soon. But just know that if you’re feeling neglected, I probably am meaning to get in touch with you. Feel free to e-mail me instead and maybe that’ll  help me get my butt in gear!

Jesse is going out of town this weekend. His parents are going out of town this weekend. I’ll be home alone. Whatever is a girl to do?

My Weekend “To Do” List:

• Spinning class (saturday)
• Yoga or Kickboxing (sunday) (NEVER HAPPENED! I got blisters under my feet! – see below)
• Walk at Round or Lacamas Lake (My hour and 15 minute walk was great until I realized the pain under my feet was caused by blisters!)
• Work on finishing the book I’m reading (30 pages to go!) —->
• Rent a movie? (I rented Elizabethtown… it was hard to get into, though it was good at the end. Not that I’d ever watch it again to get to the last half.)
• Head over to the Farmer’s market
• Laundry
• Clean the bathroom (Uh, honey, could you take care of that this week?)

I’m sure there are more possibilities. I have no idea exactly what I’ll spend the weekend doing, but I plan to do more than just sit on my butt =)

Anyone have any ideas on how to sell my wedding dress? I’ve tried posting it on craigslist but no luck. I guess my next try is ebay if no one has any other suggestions. Someone suggested making pillows out of my dress. They’d be gorgeous, expensive pillows… I think I’d rather just get a little of the money back from the dress.

I’ve been to two belly dancing classes now. It’s too much fun! Wednesdays are now officially my favorite day of the week because they have spin class (I went to my first class in 4 months this past week! Finally!) and belly dancing. They’re long days because of it, but totally worth it.

You wouldn’t believe how hard belly dancing is. The steps for some of it are easy, but the warmups… oh man. I’ve been getting a great workout from it. Of course, so far I think I probably look more silly than sexy doing it, but just give me time… =)

Is anyone else having a hard time believing that it’s June already?
