Ben and I like to do Yoga with Adriene, although I'll admit that if Ben warned me I might find her eye-roll-y at times, she might be past your taste entirely.

Right now we are working through her 30 days of yoga playlist, or at least trying OftenBen - you still with me?

I confess, I did miss one day. But that's one out of 13 so far so I figure I am on pretty good going.

I much prefer doing stuff in person so that you don't teach yourself bad habits. We know a great massage therapist who also teaches yoga... but she's the one who tried to sell me bikram in the first place.

We'll see what that looks like after the 1st of the year. Dunno. I'm a lot less salty after some legit R&R.

Is that your daughter on ice skates? Nothing in the world makes me happier than children learning to skate.

She's been out four times in two days.

In nosehair-freezing weather.

Fair - everyone has different approaches to trying stuff out/learning new things. My personal motivator is "get into it cheap to see if I'm going to stick with it, then look into upgrading gear." (The girl's approach is "Buy the best gear ASAP" so you can tell that people's "different, but totally acceptable and up to their personal comfort levels" methods for approach have come into my view already.)

Definitely fall in between on this. "Get something good enough to not hate this because my gear sucks, could last a decent amount of time before needing to upgrade, but also isn't high end/current year models."

Skipped a few days this weekend because sleeping in is nice and I didn't bring my yoga mat to the lake house.

Been going strong since Monday though!
