No I didn't but it's always good to have it documented AND it establishes a sound baseline should the level ever vary.

Oh yes, I AM Canadian We have to have a sense of humour here - it's a bit like living next door to a rich, loud, messy crazy person... *hides*

I could use a room full of women having their periods this week for hormonal encouragement. A week late (never been that late without being pregnant) and cramps and bloat the whole time. As I am creeping toward 50, I know to expect this sort of menstrual blip but Nothing like being bloated and wearing tights in front of a room full of people you don't know to make you pray for the menopause goddess to speed up the process! DH swears I don't get b*tchy but he has a fear that I'll "pause" in the middle of PMS and be that way for the next 30 years and I'm beginning to think he might be right...


You just gotta love that Canadian sense of humour!

I don't know if this is the case with you tourist and the place where you practice, but the places where I teach I have certain classes that draw certain crowds. For example, for some reason the Friday midday aquayoga class that I teach seems to really draw the middle aged to retired person crowd. Many of the ladies in that class commiserate over "the change." Since all these ladies are good friends, when they are all feeling hormonal, they feel comfortable enough to find their own corner of the pool where they feel completely at ease with just being their grumpy, self-conscious hormonal selves. I find it very cute and comical.

Basically, what I'm trying to say is if you feel the need to be in a class full of people who can totally relate to you while practicing yoga, look into it at the place where you practice--maybe you can ask the studio owner or one of the instructors if there is a class that seems to be filled with ladies like you. Who knows? You might find a whole gaggle of new friends!
