Worth it.

A few months ago while talking to a friend she mentioned she was signing up for a pilates class at the community center on Thursday nights. I thought it sounded fun, but seeing as we're living off student loans I wasn't sure about taking it. After talking with Aaron, I decided to go ahead and sign up. One of the best decisions I've made. Ever.

Why? While it was good to go exercise and do something I've never done before, it was even better to have one hour all to myself. It's amazing what one hour to focus on yourself and not hear kids whining can do for a tired mom. I look forward to Thursdays at 7pm every week for my little recharge.

Tonight was our last class and I'm totally bummed. If you see me next Friday and I'm looking a little more frazzled than I usually do, you'll know it's because I didn't get my "recharge" Thursday night.

And, if you have a chance to do something without your kids (or husband) do it. Just for you. I can't believe I'm just figuring this out.
