An update of sorts

melwil-My sister moves to Bundaberg on Saturday to begin a new full time job with some newspaper - the name of which she hasn't told me yet. So we spent yesterday together, going to see American Dreamz in Gold Class. It wasn't a deep or meaningful movie, but we enjoyed it completely. I like satirical movies like that one, and I'll buy the DVD if they give me the song and dance numbers in full . . .
Kate then drove me home and gave me all these exercises to do in my quest to feel fitter. She's got me dancing around the house at the moment, which I'm fine with *g*
-
I'm a little worried about mentioning this here, because I know I'm slim and I don't know what people would think, but I'm trying to improve my fitness at the moment. It's not really about losing weight, but more about 'toning' (I hate that word) and basically feeling better physically and mentally.
A big problem with having no job and no money is being stuck at home alone a lot. I'm terrified of slipping back into old habits that lead to depression. And fitness - especially when it involves dancing madly around the house - helps prevent that *g*
-I'm slowly catching up on my April books - three more and then I can post my monthly wrap up. And then post about the four books I've already read this month. If you're interested in finding out which books I've read before I post them here, or if you want to check out old reviews, all books I've read this year are over at a Library Thing account - melwil_2006
