My New Toy

Tonight after my zumba class I had a play around with my hula hoop which I bought on Sunday. It's great fun. Apparently it's good for the waist and abs. It's weighted which I think helps to keep it going as we'll as making you work harder. It's the first time I've had a chance to have a go with it. I didn't do too bad either. You just need to get into a good rhythm. I've still got another couple of pieces of equipment to play around with. I think I'll give them a go tomorrow when I have a bit more time.

Today was a working day for me but it was a really enjoyable day too. I managed to get a couple of children who had never been in a pool before swimming half a width. It was so nice to see the frightened little faces turn into huge smiles brimming with pride. I love it when children take their first few strokes in the water.

When I got home from work I put the tv on to watch the tennis. As it was raining they showed the Hewitt/Russell match we went to see yesterday....and there I was....it's so strange to see yourself on tv.
