As he packed up his favorite things, a tear ran down his face.
He sat for a minute and reminisced. The days out on the lake, the evenings on the deck, the time spent with friends, all gone now. To think that all his misery began after his wife suggested he enroll in a yoga program. “Get back in shape so we can do the fun things again.” she said.
He got with the program, and enjoyed it quite a bit.
How did she find out that instead of just ‘doing Yoga’, he ended up ‘doin the Yoga Teacher’?
This little glimpse of the life of a very foolish man is my entry into Rochelle Wisoff-Fields’ Friday Fictioneers post. Why not check out the prompt and give it a try for yourself? Lots of fun!!!
Tragic for him, but my sympathy is limited…
🙂
Is he sad because he screwed up or sad because he got caught?
Maybe the yoga teacher told her… a very foolish man indeed.
Yoga teachers can be beautiful, ’tis true, but we mustn’t touch…especially when you’re married. No sympathy for the fool…
How indeed? Getting in shape a whole different way.
Deeds done has its consequences…
If you play with fire ….
It was all his wife’s fault (he justifies to himself). Nice story. It’s weird to look back at how things began and the long, strange road things take.
Actions and consequences – some people learn the hard way and then feel sorry for themselves.
Well told 🙂
He sure did get back in shape by the sound of it. At least he now realises the price he’ll have to pay for his little adventure. Good story.

Dear Ted,
They always find out. Sooner or later and somehow, they always do. And he’s left with memories and Rosie. Great story.

Dear Ted,
I guess he did end up doing the fun things again…just not the fun things his wife had in mind. I can see why she might not appreciate it. Good one.
Shalom,
Rochelle
Naughty man. This is a very funny story, but I don’t think I’ll be suggesting my husband takes up yoga!
Ha Ha Ha….. What a turn of events.. Not sure if he regretted it. 🙂
And I’m beginning a yoga class for newbies tomorrow. I’ll have to keep an eye open for any shady goings-on. Wink. Wink. Good one…
Nice answer back in return of this matter with solid arguments and telling the
whole thing about that.
