YOGA

I went to a yoga class today ... we started in savasana and pretty much stayed there the WHOLE time. I'm not sure they knew what vinyasa was. I looked around the classroom, and quickly realized I'm in an old people yoga class. Do I stay or leave? I watched the only other younger woman leave. She was probably 15 years older than me. Most of these women were at least in their 60s to 70s. I decided I would stay and make the best of it. Then felt slightly like a total jerk because I kept trying to do WAY more advanced moves. I just wanted a challenging workout. Of course this was the highlight of my day. Where do you go to make friends when you are unemployed, not in school, haven't found a church you like yet, and basically have no connection to the community at all? I wish there was a lemonade stand that sold friends.

The lowlight of my day was getting frustrated with the goal of finding a job. I teach elementary students, and in a retirement community that profession is a real hot commodity. I have started my search for a new career because it doesn't look like the education profession is going to pan out here, even though I paid approximately $1200.00 to get certified to teach in this state. Open for suggestions and direction in life. I feel like I just graduated college and am in that "now what" phase of life. Yet, I'm in my late 20s, and should really have it figured out in life.
