OK, it took me 12 days, but now I’m in the groove. Yesterday was pretty darn swell!

1. In the financial challenge I’m participating, the daily activity was to take a good look at your debt and create a plan to pay it off. I was really pleased to see that I could have all my debt paid off in 6 years — even with the money I plan to borrow to pay for my wedding! Of course that will only happen if I maintain my current budget (or better) and stop buying things with credit! But I think I an do that, so I am VERY pleased with this look of things.

2. Christopher ended the day with a “Friday Date Night”: Dinner at El Burrito Grill, dance lessons at the Arthur Murray Dance Studio, followed by an attempt to see the Perseids. During the dance lessons, we learned our grand dance entrance, and our close. I’m almost graceful! And Christopher? He’s becoming an amazing lead … and I can actually follow him — most of time.

We are having so much fun with our Friday night dance lessons! And it is therapy for my hips, helping me exercise and increase my mobility.

3. Along those lines, I’m now at the point where I’m pretty confident to not use the cane as long as the surface is flat and not moving. I still need it for stairs, ramps and buses. But this is totally forward motion!

So how did you #CelebrateYou on Day 12? I’d love to read about it either in a comment below or on our Facebook group!
