"Every family has a story that it tells itself, that it passes on to the children and grandchildren. The story grows over the years, mutates, some parts are sharpened, others dropped, and there is often debate about what really happened. But even with these different sides of the same story, there is still agreement that this is the family story. And in the absence of other narratives, it becomes the flagpole that the family hangs its identity from." A.M. Homes

Late Adopter
I have never been an early adapter. For example, I got an iPhone 3 years after the first one came out - and I still don't have an iPad. I didn't buy a pair of skinny jeans until, last week. I think they have been "in" for several years now. And today, I attended a Fusion class at Fusion Fitness KC and it kicked my a--!
Yes, that is right. I have been hearing about this class and this studio for over a year. I have had the best of intentions to get there. Today, I made it. I thought, walking in the door, "today is a cardio day for me, I sure hope I break a sweat." Wow! I was sweating so profusely that my mat was too slippery to downward dog on at the end of class.
Usually I can "mind over matter" myself through almost any workout. Today, I had to take a break several times. I will be paying the price tomorrow, I am sure. But it was fun. I will be back there on Monday morning at 5:45 a.m. I will not let this class win.
Hope y'all have a great weekend. It looks to be so beautiful here this weekend - fun times ahead (if I can walk!)
