It has been a while since I updated on the fur balls. I was away from them for a couple of weeks and have to say I missed them despite their crazy moments. They are doing well, though I do have some concerns about the amount that Pippi sleeps and her wails, but overall they both seem happy and healthy. 😻😻 Here are some other pics – ~T 😀

For Whom the Pen Flows
I was journaling this morning and in finding myself coming towards the end of a page I began to tidy up my thoughts to end my writing by the bottom. It came to my attention that this was not necessary. For what reason do I attach the bottom of a page with the end of my thoughts? These thoughts continue on even if I do not write them and what happens if I…

Mr Gropey
As we get older our sex drive is meant to go down a bit or at least level out somewhat. They say that women’s drive tends to go down below the level of men during the middle age years, which is used at times to explain why men might look for outside of marriage satisfaction – though never an acceptable excuse in my book. As a teenager and in my early 20’s, I…

The Third Eye
This yoga training weekend we had a workshop on the chakras. Although all seven of the main spinal chakras are important, the third eye chakra has a unique and more prominent presence in our lives. First, what are these chakras? Chakras are considered balls of energy that form by the crossing of the three main medians or lines of energy that flow through our body. The Chinese believe that there are something like…

Peace in Death
Death is a topic that we often avoid or try to pretend does not exist until we are faced with the reality. Many people are so afraid of death that they never really live and this occurs in various forms. Some of us never take risks because of the chance we might die – taking a reverse psychology tactic. Some of us exercise obsessively fooling ourselves into believing that it is for our…

Getting Back To It
I have been back home now for four days, but today is the first day that I have had a chance to catch up and return to a normal schedule of activities. My to-do list is ginormous, but one task at a time will take care of it. 🙂 It is good to get back on a routine, though I have a new appreciation for the concept of routine as I can indeed…

TWWs
Well, it has been a few weeks since I last updated on my workouts as I had been changing up my gym time and focusing more on the yoga. Instead, I’ll just update on my exercise activities while away – if I can recall (thus sans dates…). 3.67km run/walk 6.07km run/walk 23k steps (Kyoto trip) 20k steps (Kyoto trip) 18k steps (Kyoto trip) Yoga x5 (short to medium length sequences with some meditation…

Podcast Fav 9: S-Town
Well, I was waiting for the next season of Serial to come out, so when M mentioned a new season was available, I immediately checked it out. However, it is not actually a new season of Serial itself, but a spinoff called S-Town. The Serial season is in production still, so will have to wait a bit longer, but S-Town is an interesting story so far. There are 7 episodes and I have…

_Station Eleven_ by Emily St. John Mandel
__Station Eleven_ by Emily St. John Mandel This book hit the popularity scale a couple of years ago, but I have been a bit slow with reading what is popular. Mostly I have been reading from the AWN Book Club list, but as I was away on holiday, I thought that I would expand. 😛 It is an interesting story of a pandemic that basically ends the world as we know it. A…

Home Again
No matter how much fun or at home one is made to feel on holiday, there is still something sweet about coming back to the place where one calls “home”. As an expat for most of my life, I generally define home as “where my stuff is”. The phrase of “home is where the heart is” seems a bit too cliche for me…😜 Still, home now includes where my hubby and kitties are.…
