Zumba, week 2

This was my second week back. It got a little easier, because I was slightly more familiar with the moves. I’m better with the cha cha cha routines than the mambo routines. You’d think all the nights I spent watching Dirty Dancing would make me better with mambo. Halfway through the hour, I lose all worry that I’m secretly being videotaped for YouTube.

I have to go again next week, because the week after I’ll miss it due to work travel.

Why am I doing this? I need to increase my stamina. My life of sedentary work and habits has killed any mojo I have. Regular workouts leave me tired early on. I have to accomplish getting through 3-4 minutes of moving without feeling like death before I can do something better. I have a lot of years of WDW ahead of me!

Hello!

About Me

I've been blogging for over twenty (2 decades! 2-0!) years and I'm apparently one of the few over-50 female bloggers who haven't sold out to THE MAN yet; hence this blog remains quirky, homespun, and unprofitable. No big. However, if you're from Disney, Doritos, or Dave Matthews Band, I'm open to talk about selling out.

I live in Southern New Jersey with my husband WM, and our dog Murphy. I'm an adult who likes Disney but not a Disney Adult. I used to work a fun (really!) office job in Philadelphia, but since March of 2020 I'm a work from home hermit. So if you're looking for a childless, slightly round, marginally boring GenX woman's blog to follow, you've come to the right place! :)
