Gosh, those expenses are high!  It&#8217;s an exercise in stretching, moving money from one place to another, shuffling, leaping and moving forward.  Kind of like dancing: you stretch, and move, leap, shuffle and move forward.<\/p>\n<p>So I paid some, stretched a bit, and moved the finances forward. I was not in a good mood.  I felt stressed, stiff, and weak from the experience, especially in these financially difficult times.<\/p>\n<p>Thankfully, it was the day for my dance aerobics class.  I almost skipped it because I was so busy, but I just had to get there.  I&#8217;m so glad I did.<\/p>\n<p>It felt so good to get out of my head, away from the stress, and get back entirely into my body.  I loved stretching, flowing, leaping, making my ends meet from head to toe.  Every time my thoughts went to the bank account and the bills, I reined it in and put attention back into my body and just moved to the beat.<\/p>\n<p>After an hour I was feeling completely alive and invigorated.  I really needed some stress management, and God gave it to me in the form of dancing.<\/p>\n<p>Why not dance with me for a few minutes?
