On the Verge
We are on the verge of insanity, of normalcy, of living, of dying…. This morning I went to have my medical done, which is one of the last major hurdles before my residence visa gets issued. I am not allowing myself to get excited just yet, but it does mean that we are nearing the…

Workout Goals
Ah, do not let the title mislead you. I am by no means setting ‘real’ workout goals. However, that does not mean that I do not think about challenges. Given that my car is in the shop and M needed the car for morning appointments, it was most convenient to have him drop me off…

Weekend Update
Well, my best intentions of late have been waylaid the past few days. Not without some positive moments as well. 🙂 Thus, let me share what has been happening. On Thursday, we were in Dubai all day. I had made plans to go meet a few people from yoga about future work and collaborations. While…

When It Rains It Pours
…or so the saying goes. This can be interpreted for the negative and the positive. At the moment, I’m having faith that there is a building up of the positive that is going to dump it all at once on us soon! Sometimes I think that the universe is testing me like Job to see…

Self-Care
When money is tight it is difficult to justify getting pampering done or splurging on a cup of coffee at a cafe – two of my favorite things to do, by the way. These were activities I took a bit for granted as part of my regular routine of life when I was working full-time…

Breathe!
Sometimes a bit of a break away from the to-do list and self-imposed pressures to write or meet deadlines is needed. This weekend ended up being that, though not planned as such. It was a nice weekend and for the first time felt somewhat ‘normal’. We hung out with friends. I ‘worked’ with a few…

TGIT!
For the most part the days of the week have quickly become a blur. I generally am not eager for the weekend any more than any other day except it’s the days my hubby is home. Being a self-employed business owner means that days off are whenever I want to take them. 😛 Yet, somehow…

Structures
So my post the other day on working vs not working also brought up some ponderings on my regular visits on the topic of schedules, discipline and structures. My tendencies for ups and downs are really being challenged lately as I find myself lacking consistent structure. I still keep a schedule. I still am planned…
