Had belly-dancing tonight

Didn't put my pedometer on until almost supper-time today so I had over 5000 steps since 5 p.m. today.

Rough time with Son after school today -- had to escape the house with S-girl for a bit.

So we are working on a beginner's routine for belly dance.

I have a handout of it so I am going to write it in here because I am highly likely to misplace the handout...

I have the hardest time at belly dancing because I really don't like to look at myself in the mirror...

at home

At the studio (after class) so my coin belt is off

I was going to write more but I think I want to go up to bed and start reading a book S-girl loaned me.

g'night!
