My ramblings and wanderings through life

  • Well…this week was a day of rest. My Resting post earlier in the week explains what has happened, but basically, I had a week off from the early-morning gym visits as well as my MRTTAD walk. However, I was not physically idle – or at least not that much…. Feb 12 Sunday Sunday Wellness Yoga class 2/6 Feb 13 Monday:  From home 25 floor leg lifts 20 bicycle kicks 8 floor to boat…

  • On the whole, I dislike people. Hate might even be more accurate even though it is stronger and seemingly horrible to say.  On an individual basis, I like a person or persons. Very few individuals make it love.  Perhaps it is my nature that makes me this way toward people. I mean, it is not exactly as if I started out life well in developing trust, love, dependency and openness towards the people…

  • When I first started listening to podcasts, I went back and forth between Serial and this one. PaleOMG Uncensored had not yet started, so this was the main podcast that I got information about health, diet, etc.  Recently, I have not been listening to it as much for no real reason other than I am addicted to true crime podcasts or more specifically, My Favorite Murder.  What I really enjoyed about this podcast is the…

  • In coming to terms with who I am as an introvert, semi-anti-social, “fragile creature” (as my husband calls me) and general recluse with ups and downs, I should have known that from my extreme up-state last week there would be a down this week.  Although maintaining a regular work out schedule definitely helps with the moods, the extra yoga sessions that involve interacting with people have taken an energetic toll on me. Actually,…

  • Three years ago a friend told me to just go out and not sit at home alone on Valentine’s Day. I did. Little did I know that I would meet a man who would make me laugh throughout the evening that would turn into a friendship, love and marriage!!!👱🏽‍♀️🤝👨🏾‍💼➡️ 💑➡️👰🏽💞❤️💗💜 While we are going through an initial rough period, our love has not waivered, but grown stronger. It is a joy to celebrate…

  • Getting different perspectives and opinions can be a challenging thing as everyone means well in their advice, they may even be correct in what they say and yet, they are not in my/our shoes. Yesterday, I posted about being more optimistic and coming to a compromise about our decisions. This has not really changed, yet just one conversation can make me rethink how I was feeling just 24 hours before. There does come…

  • If I were to admit that I am stubborn I am sure that no one would try to convince me otherwise. I am indeed stubborn and extremely slow to adapt to change. Spontaneity is not something I value nor ever really want to take on. This does not mean that I am inflexible nor does it mean that I cannot eventually change my mind. I just require time to adjust, adapt and accept.…

  • This week started off well with the gym workouts but doing more yoga teaching made me a bit tired toward the end of the week. Need to perhaps focus on the cardio aspect or just remind myself it is only for 30 minutes – which is not difficult to find the time…. Anyway, it is ok. I am moving each day. 💪🏽😜 Feb 5 Sunday 30′ 3.42km treadmill (walk 1km/run 1km/walk 1.42km) 30…

  • In the midst of trying to schedule in writing time and really making a decision to focus more on my writing as a way of making income so that when we finally move on to another country, I will not be tied to needing a job in a particular location. However, in doing so I start to wonder about my skills because my story-writing days are quite slim as I have hardly completed…

  • When I decided to get married again, I determined that there was absolutely no way that I would consider divorce again. When I set my mind to decisions of such extraordinary importance there is generally nothing to make me waiver from it – no matter how tough things get. In my first marriage, I never considered divorce as an option, but then I believed that he would love and protect me above all…
