stability ball funtime

It feels like the end of summer, and it's been a busy one. As with every summer, there were plenty of good excuses to slack off from going to the gym, or indulge in some rich, tasty vittles. While I appreciate the good company I enjoyed during those fine indulgences, it's now time to start paying for them.

I went to a stability ball class this week at the Y, and to my utter delight we had our class in the beautiful open air studio on the newly-built YMCA green rooftop. The class is mellowly exhilirating; it's diffuclt work and I'm definitely achy from it, but in a good way.

I've dusted off and inflated my stability ball here at home, and have been challenging myself with it. A small tumble involving a 4-point balance and talking on the phone has not deterred me...let's see if I can keep this up long enough to be good at it ;0
