Day 13- Baby Shower

I am sorry I did not post this last night! My husband, son and I went to a late movie and by the time we got back, I was so tired that I just went straight to bed. Yesterday was a great day. When I got up, I went and subbed Zumba for my friend at 9 am. What a great class! There were about 20 people there and everyone seemed to enjoy it. Subbing can always be a little nerve wracking because people get attached to their regular instructor. Of course, all the ladies know me from teaching my other class at the studio, plus I am a participant. But our main intructor is just fabulous and it is always a little intimidating to go in and fill her shoes. I came home and fixed a small breakfast, then headed off to a baby shower with my mom. This shower was for my sister-in-law who is having twin boys! Her close friends were throwing a shower for her, and even though my mom and I are having one for her in a couple of weeks, we wanted to go to this one and support her. As you know, baby showers always supply lots of yummies and good food. When we arrived, sure enough, there was a glorious table full of goodies. Fortunately, there were lots of fruits and veggies and I filled my plate with those and drank water. It's getting easier, but there was ice cream for dessert and with waffle cone bowls from Cold Stone. Oh boy. Those did look good! But, once again.....I survived! The rest of the day was pretty quiet and I just relaxed and took a nap. I love naps! But I am thinking I have sleep apnea because I always get so darn tired in the middle of the day. I know that I snore really bad at night, and I am sure that I have it. Losing weight will help sleep apnea, but I know that I snored even back when I was a thin girl. I have always suffered from sinus problems and I may have a lot of loose skin in the back of my throat. I think I am going to go get it checked out soon. I have heard if you get a good night's sleep with no sleep interruptions, you will feel good all day long. If any of you have any knowledge or feedback on this, please let me know. My son tells me that I sound like a freight train at night. He said he can hear me all the way into his room from where I am sleeping! Wow, thanks son. You know how to make a woman feel feminine and beautiful! LOL My husband took my son and I to The Coppermill for dinner. That is my favorite place to go eat! I had their fresh salad bar and a shrimp bowl along with lots of water. I will be back tonight to report about my day. I have to go fix breakfast and get some things done, then I am off to my friends' house to make plans for our Cache Humane Society Zumbathon! We are calling it "Paws for Zumba." Can't wait!
