I've been too busy to post lately. It's weird how sometimes things seem to blow up in all directions. Not just one or two things, but everything...in giant, apocalyptic, billows of smoke. And, yet, all the normal events of life still take place and have to be maintained. It really shows how no matter what's going on around you all the normal events of life are still taking place. It makes you wonder if any of it really matters. In the grand scheme of things, surely not. The world still spins. Life goes on. And yet things can seem so important to us or to others, but no matter what they are, do they really matter? Whenever you see someone, you never really know what's going on with them, in their lives, in their minds. You never know if their actions are being affected by something else, causing them to do things that they normally wouldn't do, to do something that even now, they don't even realize they're doing it. It makes me think of a story I once heard about a man who was allowing his children to run wild on the subway. They were bothering everyone and he wasn't doing a thing. When someone finally mentioned it to him, he responded, in a daze, "Oh, sorry. Their mother just died and I don't know what to do."

Hi Suzan,

I googled Callanetics and found your blog. It's inspiring. I just found a studio and have taken 2 lessons and will continue to do so for awhile.

How's it going?

Hi Ellen,

You're going to love Callanetics. I recently wasn't able to do it for a week because of a back injury and didn't gain any of the inches back. It's so much better and produces faster results than spending all day jumping around in an aerobics class!
