Procrastination is an Art Form

January 31, 2009

If procrastination were an art form, I would be Van Gogh. I’m getting really good at it! I have just been finding all sorts of things to distract myself from my studies!
Before lunch, I went to Tuesday Morning to buy a knife. Yes, a knife. All I have here is a paring knife and I [...]

Saturday’s Are My Favorite.

January 31, 2009

Good Morning!
 
Last night’s gym meet was very fun. We ended up getting their late and got to see floor and beam, my two favorites to watch.  Each year, the gymnastics team dedicates one meet to Breast Cancer Awareness. The gymnasts AND the crowd wear pink to show their support. Very neat!

 
I always love going [...]

Norah Jones Kind of Day…

January 30, 2009

So, I really like music. Can you tell? One of my favorite channels at home is this music channel that plays live concerts from many different artists. Just last weekend I watched a show that featured India. Arie. It was beautiful.
 
Anyway, a long long time ago there was one that featured Norah Jones. I have [...]

“Sunrise, Sunrise, Looks Like Morning In Your Eyes…”

January 30, 2009

I love that Norah Jones song. When ever I hear her music, it takes me back to summers on Lake Glenville and cruising on our old boat. Ahhh, sweet memories.
 
I woke up nice and early this morning, before sunrise! I love when that happens. I felt rested and refreshed and ready for the day. I [...]

Say it with me…Crudités.

January 29, 2009

Doesn’t that word just roll off of your tongue? Crudités. Crudités. I could say it all day long. It makes me feel fancy.
 
This afternoon, around 4pm,  I had a little veggie crudité platter, if you will. Mini sweet peppers, carrots, and cucumber with sun dried tomato hummus. It was crunchy, fresh, and satisfying.

 
Very shortly [...]

Just BREATHE….

January 29, 2009

 
Hello ladies and gents. How has your day been? Good? That’s what I like to hear…
 
Every morning when I wake up (well, at least for the past few weeks) I do a few stretches, a little bed yoga you could call it, and come into malasana, which is a little squat.  I usually try to [...]

It’s Here!!!

January 28, 2009

Yay! My camera, a Canon Powershot SD880 IS, arrived tonight around 7:45. I was SO excited. I took it straight up stairs and put the battery on the charger. To waste some time while it charged, I went to Target. I bought some Kashi Go Lean and Go Lean Crunch, each on sale for $2.50 [...]

Laugh Out Loud

January 28, 2009

So this morning, post yummy breakfast (same as yesterday), and post Yoga Download’s 60 minute Core Yoga, I hopped in the shower just as I normally do. For some reason, today I realized how HILARIOUS it is that I have to shower with shoes on. We have a community bathroom here so shoes are a [...]

Sitting, Waiting, Wishing –Jack Johnson

January 27, 2009

That’s my song for today…I’m just sitting, waiting and wishing my camera were HERE! Any day now!
 
This morning I went for a nice 3 mile walk followed by about 45 minutes of nice, slow, grounding yoga. I decided to just go with the music again today and chose calming music. It was a great stretch [...]

“The next time the radio tells you to shake your money maker,….”

January 26, 2009

“…shake your head and tell them, tell them  you’re a LEADER.”
-Beautiful Flower by India.Arie
 
Love that song! I couldn’t help but giggle a little when I first heard that line but her words in that song are so inspiring!
 
This morning I made my way down to the only empty room in the house where I live [...]
