Chiclets, Widgets, & Whatsits

My Ultimate Blog Challenge certainly is living up to its word. Since I’ve written everyday for two years now, it isn’t posting that’s giving me a run for my money. First I had to figure out how to post to the challenge sight. That took all morning yesterday. This morning presented new challenges of its . . . → Read More: Chiclets, Widgets, & Whatsits

Wrestling

Today was a day that could only be described by that one word – wrestling. I woke up with a headache that wouldn't quit. For me, that makes even the mundane tasks of breakfast and teeth brushing difficult. Next came prayer and meditation. It hurt to write or read anything. So I took frequent breaks . . . → Read More: Wrestling

The Question Is…

Yesterday I came across another blog I liked very much. I signed up to get emails of new posts, but I don’t remember the name of the blog, so I can’t share it with you until there’s a new post.

Yesterday’s post was interesting, but it was the question at the end that caught my . . . → Read More: The Question Is…

The Psalmist

This week I have been blessed more than usual in the spiritual realm. Maybe it has something to do with the new bible study, or just maybe I’m ready to take some more steps toward spiritual maturity, if there is such a thing.

I think there is such a thing. When I was hurt . . . → Read More: The Psalmist

One Mat’s Journey

In honor of my two year anniversary doing Bikram yoga, I bought myself a new mat. Anniversary aside, if you look at my old mat, it becomes apparent that a new one was definitely needed. When I joined two years ago I bought the cloth Breathe mat. It’s not rubber. It has three layers and . . . → Read More: One Mat’s Journey

Go Someplace You’ve Never Been

What a day. How many times have we all said that? At least once a week. Pull up a chair and listen to what I hit at every turn today.

It was the first day of our new women’s bible study. We have been on break for a full month. I really missed it. . . . → Read More: Go Someplace You’ve Never Been

October 1. Let’s Go!

This morning as soon as I woke up, I knew the first decision I’d have to make was to go to yoga at 9:30 am or 6 pm. When I opened up my phone and saw October 1, it was like a switch flipped. I hopped out of bed knowing it was going to be . . . → Read More: October 1. Let’s Go!

I Just Want To Read

It’s a really really dark rainy Sunday morning. The dark is dark enough to keep the sensor candles in my windows illuminating each room of the house with golden warmth. A candle flickers on the mantle, blinking at me as I write. A pot of chili is simmering on the stove and the Patriots play . . . → Read More: I Just Want To Read

Outside Shower

Today there was a cold drizzle falling when I got home after yoga. I knew there would be no outside shower. The time has come. I went out to collect my shower caddy and bring it upstairs to the tub. I turned on the water and as it hit the bottom of the tub for . . . → Read More: Outside Shower

100 Day Challenge

On Monday I started a 100 day challenge. No, yoga buddies, it’s not for yoga. I may color outside of the lines once in awhile, but I’m not crazy. There’s no way I’m going to commit to yoga for 100 days. (That’s another blog – one I think I did write in the past.) No, . . . → Read More: 100 Day Challenge
