Finished Fablehaven today. (Can you guys tell I'm taking it kind of easy after the catering things recently? It's a mental thing. I still bathed today, maybe not until 3:30, but I'm clean.) OK, that's a fun book; lot's of fairies and stuff, but not stupid. Some good character development, and the whole choices/consequences thing was a well-developed theme. It's funny, there was an endorsement on the front cover from the author of the Leven Thumps books which almost turned me off. That was a poor poor writer, but this one was pretty good! Lest Deja read this, I mean a good story-teller. I'm not sure I can recognize good writing yet, but I can usually spot the awful. In non-related news, 7 people in my Tae Bo class today, 8 last Thursday (I've GOT to get some pictures of kicking legs or something for Tae Bo posts). If you remember, we just started the class in September, so I'm up from 1 person. Really. I was teaching 1 girl for a few classes. Pretty pathetic. But yeah, 7-8 people is pretty dang good for still being a shlub on the flier distribution thing. I'm looking into a banner for the building that just says "Best Cardio classes in Utah" or "Utah's best cardio classes" something like that. Noone needs to know it's just the best in OUR opinion. I really pushed them today. We did the bags ( big punching bags) for side leg stuff today. Roundhouse kicks, roundhouse/touch the floor, sidekicks with a squat.... woohoo! Sometimes it's fun just BECAUSE it's so hard. You feel so good that you've made your body obey your will --know what I mean? Also I had a new CD. That always helps.

Wait, is this the class you teach at church? I keep picturing your church building with a big cardio class sign on it. Wow, that's a fun picture.
I want to read about fairies. I just finished Nickel and Dimed in one day. (Sunday, when I was ill. Still am ill, actually.) That was mostly just depressing. Made feel guilty for being able to buy lettuce.
No no. I'm at Omega Martial arts now. I guess I won't look for that book.
I kind of enjoyed Fablehaven too. Also enjoying the one Deja recommended, Thief of Always, in the same way.
Maybe in the summer I'll come see your class. Maybe not do much, but it would be fun to see.
I'm happy to hear your class attendance is going up. That is great.
I like Tia.
Miles has me pledged to read Fablehaven. My kids loved it. I think a cardio sign on the outside of a church would be a great missionary tool! Come and exercise your faith in the Lord, Best Kick oops... can't say that... Let the Lord work you out? Anyway, yeah to be up to 7! Congrats my kicking cuz.
