Most of July
I’ve been meaning to write a new blog post for awhile, but I’ve been spending all of my writing time working on the book I am writing. I don’t think I have mentioned the book I am currently working on yet, but it is a personal story for me that I am fictionalizing to make it easier for me to write.
Zumba at Titletown
I got to go to a Zumba class for the first time in way too long yesterday. My friend Rochelle (from Zumba) let me know that the Titletown District had started their Summer Programming and a Tuesday Zumba class was on the schedule. I had been looking for it on their website, but I apparently missed it.
Light at the End of the Tunnel
COVID Vaccines
It sounds like there is a light at the end of the tunnel when it comes to COVID. There are multiple vaccines that seem promising, which is excellent news!
My brother-in-law, who works in a hospital, will be getting the vaccine next week. People like my husband and I will likely have to wait until spring to get vaccinated. That’s fine, there are obviously people out there that are in more need of it than we are.
Halloween 2020
Last weekend was Halloween!
This was the first year in some time that I didn’t dress up for Halloween because I didn’t go to Halloween Zumba. I’ve had memories from past Halloween Zumba pop up on my Facebook timeline. They made me kinda sad.
End of an Era
I mentioned in my previous post that one of the Zumba instructors, “S”, in my community of Zumba friends announced that she is retiring from Zumba next week. She was the only reason that I was going to possibly hold on to my Y membership since her class was the only class I went to anymore.
In my last post, Election Day & Covid Thoughts, I wrote about how I had pretty much decided that I was going to switch to a new gym. The ONE thing that was keeping me at the Y was that my Zumba friends all went there.
Election Day & COVID Thoughts
I am glad I started virtual therapy a few weeks ago with TalkSpace. I knew my anxiety would be leveling up as Election Day got closer.
I want all of this to be over. The election, COVID-19 (which unfortunately won’t go away after the election), racial inequality. All of it.
Even when the election is over, I expect there will some civil unrest, no matter who wins.
When COVID gets under control, I don’t think anyone’s life will return back to whatever “normal” was for them pre-COVID. I know mine won’t.
“Pussy Pants”
In February, we had taken a vacation to Cancun with a big group of some friends from Zumba. This gave Jeff a chance to get to know everyone. And, for everyone else to get to know him, since he hadn’t gone to many gatherings with me before this. He’s also a little shy when he first meets people. He gets over it quick, though!
Indoor & Outdoor Zumba
I have been out and about to a few stores since businesses are re-opening.
Before, I only went inside Costco and Menards due to their mask-wearing requirements. I have now branched out to Target, Festival (grocery store), and T.J. Maxx.
Zumba Instructor?
I am trying a “new” thing during this quaratine. I have started online training to become a Zumba Instructor!
I have always wanted to have access to all the zumba music and choreography that I learn in my Zumba classes. Sometimes, I just want to know what a song I like is called so I can dowload it for myself
It is my birthday.
Today is my birthday. I turned 34 years old.
It’s a bit of a weird birthday, due to COVID-19. I can’t really leave the house, unless I want to go work at our store or take our dog, Charlie, on a walk.
I plan my life out a day at a time, so my posting schedule can be erratic.
