Ballet Class Recap: A Confession

Last week was a particularly rough week. We’ve been searching for a new apartment (which is never fun) and I’ve just been busy and under a lot of stress in general.

I went to class last Monday (with HQ) which doesn’t start until 8 pm, and usually leaves me pretty tired since sometimes I don’t get home until 10 pm. It was a good class (I always really enjoy going to a back-to-basics class)–but I think it may have thrown off my sleep schedule for the rest of the week. I spent most of it groggy and kind of tired.

I missed Thursdays class due to an event I had to attend–but I had every intention of going to Friday’s class–especially since it was the first pointe class at the new studio (which has really nice flooring). But I had a horrible headache and felt kind of spacey, so I ended up staying home to relax instead.

That didn’t exactly work out either–as our washer malfunctioned and filled our entire kitchen with smoke–so HQ and I ended up grabbing food out so we didn’t have to cook. I couldn’t make it to Saturday’s class either with an apartment showing and WordCamp Philly convention going on. I debated heading to the ballet fitness class this morning, but decided to relax and catch up on a bit of work instead.

This week, I plan on skipping Monday night’s class (since my normal teacher is out anyway) and seeing if that helps me catch up on sleep so I can make it to Thursday and Friday’s classes, which I really enjoy.

How have your summer ballet classes been going so far?
