Day 8

Developed a stress rash on my face neck and arms. Yuck :( There is what happens when you don't do yoga. So today I start.

Day 7

So today my challenge is to eat as many fruits and veggies I can fit into my stomach...start my new job...and keep myself calm in the midst of the familial storm. Today I will do Yoga, write, work, breathe, rest, and be.

Day 6

First Breath...then breathe...two bottles of water...release it. Light a fire, take a vitamin...breathe. Get four out the door, hit the ground running. Block out everything all distractions. Move through the day with with the planets, in harmony, with the sun and moon. Move through the day with peace in my mind, peace in my heart. Each hour it's own song, sung in simple harmony. Understanding love joy peace kindness Goodness faith mildness and self control. Bring my gifts forward and out into the world with confidence knowledge, wisdom, freedom, justice, equality.

Day 5

My momma hat is being tested. I just got not one but two new jobs, the children have colds (not flu) and my skin decided its time to break out into a major heat rash, because I'm having night sweats of concern. My therapy is massage, a deep scrub and detox, mani pedi and a makeover. The healthy adult knows!

Day 4

So for the fourth day in a row, I have wrestled with the fact that I have lost as much weight as I should lose. Time to stop and be grateful and strengthen and tone. Carnival San Francisco is less than 5 months away and if I want to see that banger body that I worked for then I must keep it moving. The most interesting thing I read in the last few days was that we can do as much work on ourselves in our sleep as we do when we are awake. We do as much for goals and the things we want in our sleep as much as we do when we are awake. I understand it to mean that our thoughts really do become the things we live and experience. if we are thinking positive upbeat inspired and authentic, then we will live that. If we are thinking low sad depressed angry jealous and hatefully, then we will live and experience that. I am fully realized in living as a Goddess, and the amount of time work and energy that I have put into that is manifesting into life. I need only allow and accept what is, and continue. I can remember a time mired in need and longing and now I just...AM...I don't long to be or need to be...I AM

Day 3

There is absolutely nothing standing in the way of progress. To start this transition, I have to detox. This should be pleasant enough as I've had plenty of practice.

Day 2

I've been trying to go back to work...slowly. I'm not giving up on writing but I've been off long enough and have put as much effort into it as I possibly can. So back to the trenches. I facilitated a 3 hour workshop with teen girls and that was a good way to get my feet wet in the work world. I have taught this work shop for free but this time the org had a budget so I was paid ($50 per hour) Not too bad at all! NEXT! I know that I like consulting but I need to plants some roots for awhile, so I can just write and set up resources for the first two who will leave the best nest. I know that I need to sail everyday so I've decided that Fisherman's Wharf is probably for me. There has to be a competitive salary, and NOT as enclosed as when I worked for PG&E, which is right where you can run and look at the water, but you have to run back. (Although I am grateful for those breastfeeding breaks that we're company policy, Ramses is too!) I need something with the doors open, that's relaxing, and watery..I want to feel the spray, and be REQUIRED to look Cute, Confident, and Casual all at the same time...Mmmmmmm.....
