July 23rd, 2012 I don’t go to yoga on weekends. That makes Monday morning class a little different than Tuesday through Friday classes. After two days of too much beach, too much food, and too much wine, the jaws of Bikram yoga are just aching to chomp on a rather sedentary body, fully sated with food and drink, . . . → Read More: Monday Morning Body
July 22nd, 2012 Today was a quiet day, without a lot of the usual hustle n’ bustle of household upkeep. Watching the aftermath of Aurora on Sunday Morning, and the taking down of Jo Pa’s statue, just set a pensive tone for the day.
In the afternoon my husband and I went down to the canal and . . . → Read More: Just …A Quiet, Pensive Day
July 21st, 2012 Once again I sit here stunned at yet another shooting. The theater shooting yesterday in Colorado is hitting everyone hard today. Watching that mother talk about waking up and knowing something was wrong with her daughter, texting her, the daughter telling her she’s fine and to go back to sleep, and then waking to the . . . → Read More: Aurora
July 20th, 2012 Fourth of July weekend my daughters and I were getting ready to hit the beach with our friends. I came out of my room dressed in my bathing suit. Daughter 1:
“Ummm…no, Mom. “ “What?” “No, Mom, not that bathing suit.”
So I went and put on another suit.
“Ummm… No, Mom.” “Come on, . . . → Read More: Umm…no, Mom!
July 17th, 2012 Proven! Mind control is essential to a positive class. Today’s class was exactly like Friday. Same teacher, hot, humid morning, and…me getting nervous about a bad class. I remembered my experience Friday where my mind won and resolved not to repeat that fiasco. As soon I entered the studio I set my intention. I knew . . . → Read More: Body 1, Mind – zee…ro
July 16th, 2012 I’m reading “The Next Best Thing”, Jennifer Weiner’s newest book. While it’s a slow mover, it is a good story and keeps my interest because the main character is a writer – for TV. It was all very interesting to see how shows are written and then finally make it onto our TV screen, but . . . → Read More: The Next Best Thing
July 13th, 2012 There is only one word to describe my yoga class today – TEDIOUS. Starting out the room was extra hot and humid. The teacher’s voice was slow and low. The set-ups took forreeever….. The poses took even longer. I gave in to standing a bit in standing head to knee. I came in late on . . . → Read More: Mind – 1, Body – 0
July 12th, 2012 Today started out like any other. At 7:30 am my husband called me and talked to me as he does every morning. He was in NY. I’m in Cape Cod. Except today was the day we have been married for 37 years. In past years I would’ve hated that we were apart on this day . . . → Read More: Today
July 11th, 2012 Today summer Bible study started. We are doing a series by Priscilla Shirer. She’s a wonderful speaker on women’s faith and told a great story in today’s video that stuck with me all day, so it’s worth sharing with you.
Shirer told the story of her young son losing his first tooth. He waited . . . → Read More: Five Dollars
July 10th, 2012 Today a friend and I had lunch at a charming little cafe near my home. We were talking about another friend who was seriously ill and suddenly lost her husband. My friend told me she answered the email on that news by saying we should stop and be grateful for each and every one of . . . → Read More: Grappling
