I was just looking online to see if there were any interesting dance classes near me that I could sign up for. Unfortunately my search produced discouraging results. There aren't many choices around here. I would love to join belly dancing, jazz or lyrical dance. I can't find ANY lyrical classes at all. All beginning jazz classes are for little kids. And only one belly dancing teacher, who I already know, and she's not a good teacher at all.

I used to dance when I was a kid. Danced until my mid-teens. I've always been fat, but I think I was pretty good. I have good rhythm, and the spirit. But it's been so long I know I need beginner classes again. Very frustrating.

I wish I didn't feel so embarrassed about exercising at home. But I do. Maybe eventually I won't, but for now, I do. I get out of breath easily and I'm sweating and huffing and puffing and moving slow. I need to not be around my family while doing that.

Oh, and there I am again with the excuses. Naughty Angelina!
