Exercise/Maid/Portuguese

To be honest there is not a lot to do here at the compound besides exercise. There are body sculpting classes and water aerobics and boot camp and spin classes and I could probably name a dozen more. So it is either go shopping, stay in your house with the maid or go to an exercise class. Needless to say I have been exercising a lot. If I have nothing else to do I go ride my bike...anything to get out of the house. :-) Today was my first day at the boot camp class and it kicked my butt. I thought I was on biggest loser and now I know why they vomit so much. Most of the other ladies at the class have lived here for a few years and so they are already in shape, but not me. I have been doing water aerobics on Tuesday and Thursdays and I thought that was hard but that is nothing compared to boot camp. Boot camp is offered on Monday and Wednesday....I am not sure I will go Wednesday but I am sure I will go back on Monday. I wasn't going to but then the instructor said this class is not for everyone so if you can not handle it that is ok it will not hurt my feelings. I thought, great now I have to go back!!

We got our old washing machine back and it is like the maid forgot how to use it. I think I will get the neighbors maid to come over and show her how to use the machine. It is driving me nuts that she keeps stopping it during the spin cycle and starts it over again. URG!! Also, we painted the house this weekend and when I came home from exercise the maid seen it and pretty much said it's ok but she doesn't like the color much. She also doesn't really like how I rearranged the furniture. I can not please her she can not please me. :-) We have a love hate relationship I guess. :-)

I am about to go meet the guy that is going to start coming to my house to teach me Portuguese lessons. He does 1 hour classes 3 days a week. Then maybe I can tell the maid myself how to use the washing machine. :-)
