This is really happening! Today I filled out my W-4 etc. and had my membership changed to "employee" at my gym. I know it is silly but I find it exciting anyway. Now I get half price protein bars and water, I don't have to pay for child care, I get paid to teach and my membership is now free! YAY!!
If I were training with one of the other trainers, I'd get a discount on that too, but since my trainer is the owner, he won't give me a discount. He's lucky he's so cute, or I wouldn't stand for it!!
I start officially in November, two classes a week for now. I know he wants me in more than that, but we'll have to see. My logistical situation may be getting much more complicated in the next month as I am most likely looking forward to some level of single parenting. but with the free child care, it may not be an issue.
I may also be training to teach spin classes. Though I don't know when I'd teach those! At least the gym pays for my training. That helps.
So if you're in the area, let me know and you can come work out with me!!

(And your protein bar and water are on me!)
