from If Everything were Done and all our Bills were Paid by Charles Kingsley

If every sky were fair and everything we tried Succeeded; if despair Came never to our side;

Were every burden light, Pray tell me, if you can, If everything were right, What would proclaim the man?

Final passage tomorrow.....

from If Everything Were Done and all our Bills Were Paid by Charles Kingsley

If all our bills were paid And all our cares were done; If every path were made And every struggle won; If every wish came true And every heart were gay, Whatever would we do To pass the time away?

More to follow tomorrow...

12 Days of Trimming

Don't pack on any extra pounds this Holiday season!
We tend to eat a little more, drink a little more, stay up late a little more
during the next couple weeks.
So...we may need to exercise a little more.

Join us Tuesdays and Thursdays at 10:15 for a 30 minute toning and sculpting class.
We will work all the major muscle groups using
light weights in a variety of movements and combinations.
Come to 9:15 cycling class and stay after for the icing on the cake...

OR

As the days get busier and everyone needs a little more from us,

take 30 minutes for yourself at 10:15.

$5 per session or $50 for all 12 sessions.
Begins Thursday, November 10th.
(every Tuesday and Thursday until Christmas except for Thanksgiving Day)
