Hi there!

Haven't fallen off the face of the earth yet,
(at least my obit wasn't in the morning paper)
just have been super busy at work and tired
by the time I make the commute home.

Just wanted to say, "Hi! Yoga tonight...
in this heat! UGH... but I'll go nonetheless."

Til next time...

Yoga Session II completed, well sorta.

Yoga  Instructors of the world, feel secure that you need not worry about me taking over your job for some time!

Good thing I set a goal and still have it to attain.

My goal is to be able to complete an entire one hour
session without having to take the baby position or the
the downward dog to recouperate until I can join the group
again.

Good news is, I went and tried. 
Better than just talking about it,
I did it!

Have to admit by the time I got home, I was dead tired and
crawled upstairs to
S---P---R---A---W---L
out on the bed!  But I do love it.  It's
making me move and I know I will be better for it.

Next class is Thursday.
Wish me the strength to get just
a wee bit further along in the routine.

Namaste!

He's back...

Apparently, after being told to leave, he put himself
into rehab to detox.  Came home 2 days after getting
out and wanted to apologize and make amends.  Been
walking the streets during the day, nowhere to live.

Took time off to clear out a room for him to stay with us
yesterday.

I have no idea where this will end, not asking for advice
(God knows I get plenty of that from my OTHER kids) but
they are not in my shoes, they don't understand.

We talked long and hard.  We need to talk some more.
We need a contract.  I am happy he is still alive and he
checked into rehab after clearing it with his employer.

He's responsible enough in that respect.  Keep those prayers
coming.

On a good note, it's gonna be Session 2 for Yoga tonight!
Hope I make it through a little bit more than I did the last
time...and sweat even less!  Oh yeah, I'll need prayers for
THAT to happen!

Have a great Thursday.  Weather here on East Coast is
picture perfect...no humidity, sunny and high of 84...just
wish I could be out there enjoying it v. work!

Ta Ta!

Had my first yoga class yesterday~!

And really enjoyed it, however...

I did have to take breaks during the session.

See I've made a commitment for the month

of July to take at least one Yoga class a week

and take a walk once a week.

I've let myself go and I have to start somewhere.

So any new commitments out there?

I think I will like this Downward Dog

and other various poses...

Namaste

It's been a week...

... and no contact.


Bank account is down to $2.99,
up from last week's $0.44.

Trying to figure out if all this is good or bad.

On a positive note, my other son celebrated his
32nd birthday yesterday.

Isn't life funny, I'm too young to have a 32 year old yet,
I'm too old to go through this again with my 24 year old.

Ah what a wicked web we weave as we go through life.

I owe, I owe...

it's back to work I go!

Had a great 4th with family.

My favorite 5 year old got

everyone up and we marched

in a parade waving old glories

and pinwheels.

Wish I had my camera so I

could post pix... but I had no

idea we were doing a parade

singing..."It's the forf of July,

it's the forf of July, it's the forf

of July..."

Fun!

What did you do?  Any watermelon

eating contests?

Oh well, back to the old bump and grind it is.

I pledge allegiance...

to the flag

of the United States of America.

And to the Republic for which it stands,

one nation, 

under God, 

indivisible 

with liberty & justice for ALL!

God Bless America &

God Bless You

Have a safe and happy

4th of July

and remember to pray

for those men and women

out there fighting for

our liberty.
