On the way to 108
So, today I finished 70 sun salutations for Day 16 of my 28-day challenge to build up to 108 in one go. I wrote when I was starting it two weeks ago. When I woke up this morning, I was feeling keen. I thought to myself that it’s only another 38 rounds to the full…

The Chaos Pendulum
Life is very good. People who do not know us or our history have told us that they can never imagine being able to live as we do. People who do not know us or our history think that what we have now was easy to obtain–for us. People who do not know us or…

Importance of Fluidity
As someone who is a lover of planning and a general stickler for organizing, I amaze myself when I can be fluid – if I may toot my own horn. ð While we were gone, Peanut had to get a surgical procedure done to release a growing abscess. Our sitters were stars in helping out…

28 Days to 108 Sun Salutations
So, I needed something to prepare myself for an online yoga class that I have agreed to teach *live* weekly. I must have been feeling weak in my desire to do something a bit more meaningful when I agreed to do it. ðĪŠ In any case, to ensure that my ankle is up for it…

A Bit of Holiday in Western France
Although our lives are admittedly in the realm of “every day is a holiday”, we did take a week to really be on holiday. M has always wanted to surf in the Atlantic, so we headed that direction from our place in the Var, France. To break up the journey a bit, we revisited a…

Start of Summer Reading
One of the best parts of beach days is the uninterrupted reading time. Since we have been on the Atlantic Ocean seaside, which is famous/popular for surfing and jumping waves, I have been enjoying time on the sand in the sun. Being more of a land-lover keeps me well away from the waves that I…

Reminders to Self
It really doesn’t take long to follow the path of least resistance and return to old habits – whether deemed good or bad. M came back on Sunday. On Monday, we went out with friends for lunch and an evening out. My stomach was a bit in shock with the return to booze and food,…

Thoughts on AI, copyright, etc.
This is really a kind of stream of consciousness post on the topic as I’m formulating my thoughts to post on my writing spaces. Teachers around the world are in a bit of an uproar over the current dominance of AI bots that are getting a lot of attention these days. Some teachers feel threatened…

Reboot Detox 2023
Every now and then, I try to do a fasting lemon water detox. The longest I have done is ten days of just lemon water throughout the day and no food with the exception of a smoothie at the end of the day when my brain thinks it wants food. The shortest I have done…

Bonjour de France! ðŦð·
We are officially on our summer holidays! âïļð Although, to be fair, it doesn’t look or feel that much different from our regular days since neither of us “work” all day long. Plus, M is always “working”, so even when on holiday he is messaging, fielding calls, etc. Still, the environment has changed and we…
