I forgot to blog yesterday. It was a little busy at the end of the day and I was trying to rush off to yoga. I try to get there a little early so I can save some co-workers a mat and spot on the floor (that's not on top of someone else). A new girl came to the class for the first time and I was REALLY impressed with how flexible she was. She went beyond the 'advanced' poses. She demonstrated the 'scorpion' (shown right) which I brought up as having seen on the internet and she also went into the different poses from standing - for example the bridge (shown left). She went in and out of the bridge from a standing posture. I do this one from lying on my back and I'm far from holding onto my ankles. Can you imagine standing and folding backwards like this with ease? Yeesh!
We played a little poker after yoga and Mike won! :) It was down to him and I in the end and he took me all in. :P His hand was slightly better than mine - guess that's what it takes. :)
It's the weekend for us, which hopefully means an afternoon off. I have a report I apparently need to complete before I take off so I guess it depends on that as to whether I'll actually get to. :) Wish me luck!
