When the sun came up, I decided to hit the gym for some last minute shape-ups and tried a spinning class. Boy, I thought I'd never sweat so much in BodyAttack, but this group cycling class they call "All Terrain" had me soaked 5 minutes into the routine. I loved the music, but kept feeling like I couldn't go on every time the instructor cued us to increase the resistance. I got a little wobbly coming off the bike, and my neck and shoulders were sore. Otherwise, I felt great! I think I will give it another try, this time sticking to instructions about upping the gear - I kinda cheated and kept the resistance about the same throughout most of the class. It's definitely a good alternative to the high-impact BodyAttack.
After my workout I headed over to B's - I wanted him to see what I would be wearing to his cousin's wedding. He didn't like the blue dress Michelle and I had picked out, so I went in a black chiffon dress instead. Getting ready took longer than expected and since B's mom volunteered to do my hair, I didn't get to attend the ceremony. We did make it in time for the reception though. It felt quite uncomfortable - I must have had way more hairspray in my hair than I'd normally use in a year and I had on makeup so thick that I had to wash my face twice to remove it all.
But it's worth it, don't you think?
I spent the rest of the weekend in Markham because I wasn't going to drive after all those glasses of wine Saturday night and I had a splitting headache on Sunday (maybe a hangover?). It was definitely nice to not have to worry about anything - and now that mom's back from HK, I'm hoping that everything will be OK.
