    I confess I feel a little lost when I open up MFP and I have no messages from the people I talk to regularly.

    I feel weird when I do get messages.

    messages?

    .... we can get messages ??

    I got one yesterday from a poor speller or perhaps English is a second language. In any case, he wants to play with my click.

    Been there. Had a few girls asking about my clock. I'm all, does anyone actually own one of those anymore with smartphones.

    Did you fall on it skating last night?

    just kidding. Why butt hurt?

    my morning class yesterday hurt my butt. haha
    it is basically one legged squats while gliding along and leg lifts. All while keeping focus on our core and engaging every freaking muscle cause the coach running it wanted a workout. I'm now butt hurt

    Ohhhh.... yeah, I bet that's a great workout. You make me want to take skating lessons! But I can't fit it in with my ballroom dance classes and workouts at this point. Maybe once I learn all the ballroom dances I'll move on to skating.

    Ballroom skating??

    Well, I guess couples skating is kinda like ballroom, right? lol

    Ice dancing is and that's what I have done my whole life so I can easily ballroom dance cause I do it on ice. That's what I was doing last nigh with my guy I help out. He was concerned some positions were awkward for me, I'm like if you're not touching odd spots on me it's not right

    Yes, I totally get that! I've never formally danced with a partner before, besides informal stuff with boyfriends/ex husband or guys out. I have the hardest time with my arms and letting the guy lead in dance class. I've even had to do a whole class with the female instructor when no one showed up. It felt a little awkward at first, but it was good because she's a pro.

    Letting someone lead is the hardest thing to master, I've been led so long that it's second nature and when I skate with guys who ware weaker I can actually make it look like they are doing it because I make them stand so close to me that I can just nudge them with my shoulder or hip and se them straight

    but honestly give in to the leading...if you have a really good partner it is the greatest feeling ever. I know it sounds weird but OMG when you have a strong male lead you just melt into the hold and it's amazing

    I agree and firmly believe all high school students should have to have a class or seminar on things like credit use and budgeting.

    Yes! I look at people I know who make about the same money as us and think "how do they afford all that?!" Bigger house, newer cars, stupid stuff like Yeti coolers. But we're putting a good hunk away for later so we live well below what we bring in. Helps me sleep at night.

    I talk with students and younger people a lot about this. What prompted me to post was talking to a 25 year old that said he would have LOVED. class in high school with information we were talking about. I mean, I am an educator and we din't make lots of money, but I don't spend much, have been scrimping and investing every bit I can, and made it all work. But I have friends who tell me how broke they are that they can't pay bills, but we are out at lunch and they are talking on the newest phones, ordering like crazy, and we go out in their nice cars. Crazy.

    I haven't had a car payment or any payments but my mortgage in over 12 years. That alone is a huge savings. I do all my work on cars and my house myself, which saves $1000's and more each year. So many ways to save...I see so many younger people leveraging and spending their future now.

    Anyway...off my soap box.

    I have given everyone of my kids, Dave Ramsey's financial peace course. I wish I had been disciplined with money when I was younger. Now want to make sure that they are.

    I confess, I am feeling pretty happy today, sorry you are not @km8907

    Pretty happy, I have found a lady who loves me unconditionally and I am getting ready to go away with her for a week of doing nothing, Life is pretty good at the moment.

    I went to the rink but didn't like any parking spots so came home.
    Now I'm thinking I might go to the outdoor rink this afternoon even though I decided it's best to not skate today. I'm a dork

    I think that's the problem. I'm learning with other's who are also learning, so I'm not really dancing with a partner who is a strong lead, so it's hard to follow them. Plus we switch up so much between partners and everyone does the dances a little different. I love it when I get a turn with the instructor even though she's female, cause I can let her lead me much better.

    ya it's tough when you're with others learning. My guy last night always says "but you were helping" I'm like that's my job and there's always some give and take. Once you get good partners though you learn what kind of lead you like. Wishy washy weak isn't for me I like my man to really be a man! I'm getting myself a bit excited here

    Boy do i know this feeling all too well. And then that one bill that you have on auto pay kicks in and the next time you look at your account you gotta hold back tears.

    Yes...I'll have to dip into savings. I hate to do that though but I have to buy a gift card for some shindig I was invited to tomorrow.

    Please don't tease me with your rack. ;)

    As much as I like to come off as a player with sex swagger, I read thread about threesomes, swinging and such, and I just would not have the confidence to feel I was with someone and didn't have their full attention. Suppose it is insecurity or just a very traditional mindset.
