The mess is from the twins and their endless fort building that involves removing all cushions from the furniture and piling them on the floor.<br \/>The party was the best one I&#8217;ve attended since I started going three years ago. This one had dancing, kareokee and various dancing lessons: Hawaiian, Bollywood, Square etc. I love to dance and I love to sing so I was very happy. Also, my friend from class, Anne-Marie, was there which made it more fun.<br \/>Bikram&#8217;s this AM was exhausting considering I had partied last night. But I made it. There are a few poses which are hard on me&#8211;they can cause dizziness, nausea etc. I have learned not to push myself during those poses (the camel, the rabbit) and I am able to enjoy the class more.<br \/>I helped with Tabi&#8217;s class hot lunch today. Some dad (he lives up the street from me) was such a control freak! He refused to let me see the class list because &#8220;he had this class&#8221;&#8211;the guy was clueless as to how to work as a team. No matter how many parents show up to help the class, we all have to cooperate and work as a team. Not him. He was so irritated by my presence that he scrambled to find a new class to take over so he could be Mr. Lunch-Guy \ud83d\ude1b<br \/>This weekend it is ZENNING the house yet again. I must down size and get rid of tons of stuff&#8211;we have simply too much and I cannot keep the house karma flowing in a positive way unless I simplify.<br \/>The girls are all well&#8211;Mist has recovered from her teeth extractions. This weekend the girls and I are going to &#8220;Fantastic Mr. Fox.&#8221; Aside from that I plan on a good mountain run, hike and skating on Sunday. Here&#8217;s to a good weekend!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Peter and I before the Christmas UBC party in our rather messy, 50&#8217;s inspired family room.
