Re: Off the Wagon INTERVENTION
Thu, January 1, 2009 - 8:09 AMMonday 29th and 30th...
I worked 2 12+ hour days and I came home and vegged.
I know it was wrong- and it was a setback.. and if I could have done just some small thing.. something dance related it could have prevented the fall. I know it only would have taken 30 mins but i was weak.
On the 31st I finished my new costume and danced my sets for Saturday in it.
ok.. I am ready for my penance____________________ -

Re: Off the Wagon INTERVENTION
Fri, January 2, 2009 - 10:00 AMyour penance is to do your next drill session, standing in one spot... NO traveling moves!
And you must be blind folded. Use the loss of sight to really feel every movement. -

Re: Off the Wagon INTERVENTION
Sat, January 17, 2009 - 8:45 PMok so off the wagon AGAIN... but I tried really hard !
my "day job" has become beyond demanding lately and I am doing the work of 4 [instead of the 2 i usually do !] and then they have been sending me out of town [i go again in a week] when out last time i was really good.. in the hotel gym every night for an hour. but then after comeing back i had so much to catch up - someone else to train and regular troupe class is now twice a week.. so.. i got to the point of exhaustion. Today all i could manage was to get a shower and dressed. had to go to my husbands daughters son's 6 th birthday [ya i know i guess that makes me grandma but his daughter was grown and gone before we met]
I do plan on getting to dancing tomorrow.. but I have to watch that i don't get sick.
Does any one have suggestions? This week I will be pulling 12+ hours again then with troupe on Tues and Thurs nights.... i am not sure i can muster the energy for Monday - Wednesday .. i have a show on Friday.. saturday i pack and sunday i fly out again .... some help please? -

Re: Off the Wagon INTERVENTION
Thu, January 22, 2009 - 7:18 PMHow beneficial does this sound to you, wear a pretty bracelet or ring and focus on moving throughout your day from dance posture? When you realize that you are not, as happens, switch the pretty bracelet or ring to the other arm/hand and begin again. That, and adding a splash of apple cider vinegar to your water to help stave off illness. Good Luck! -
