Today was New Shoe Day.
I've been experimenting with Zumba, but have since learned that you need special shoes to do it right. My Nikes (I'm a Nike girl, back up off me in those Reeboks) catch on the carpet, and since I'm already seriously uncoordinated, this is a broken ankle just waiting to happen. However, without shoes, my feet end up sore.
Zumba has an online shop (of course, right) and special Zumba shoes at $75. Of course, you can't use them for ANYTHING else, because they basically have no tread. Nice. Well, guess what. At WalMart, I found Danskin dance shoes for $19. So there you have it. I'm ready to roll with my sparkly black treadless $19 shoes that I can't use for anything else. We are on, bring it.
Thank you for your valuable input on the Zoe/Amanda situation, both to those who posted here and on FaceBook or via e-mail. I feel less like a jerk now.
And today - in my appropriate footwear - I'm the kind of person who gets some form of exercise every day.
Sigh. I hate it when I pick something that actually requires EFFORT. But I figure, I'm over 40...I eat too much saturated fat...I need to start taking better care of my heart. So I will. Sigh again. I figure if I don't make a big deal out of this, and just DO IT, it will happen.
Your suggestions are welcome and encouraged.
