September 2nd, 2013 Today is the fourth anniversary of my retirement.

August 27th, 2013 Today was my second day back to Bikram after my month-long hiatus. It was a rough comeback. My first class last week was flawless. Today not so much.

August 23rd, 2013 Welcome to our new “Friday thing”. Today I’m joining in a “blog hop”, which is very much like a blog challenge because you get to meet awesome people and read some really great blogs.
