My ramblings and wanderings through life

  • When you finally get time on your own it is fascinating to explore the wanderings of the mind. Now that my physical exhaustion is dissipating (still did not quite make it to the gym this morning, but did do yoga last night), my mind is starting to snap, crackle and pop again letting the electrodes create synapses in my brain. My contemplation this morning was on making decisions that greatly alter the course…

  • Today I realized it has now been about 10 days since I went to the gym or felt as if life was ‘normal’. 😳 It is quite amazing how easily life can become unbalanced in just the smallest of ways yet enough to tip the scales. ⚖️ I imagine my exhaustion both physically and mentally is also a long-term result from various sources. Usually, I do notice that I cannot do any physical…

  • It had been just about a year since I last had anything done to my hair, which was for our AD wedding. 🙀 Although I have been trying hard not to spend money on frivolous things too much, a girl still has to take care of herself, right?! 😜 So, my nail appointments are definitely less frequent, massages have gone by the wayside, and well, it was nearly a year since I went…

  • It was training weekend 2 for the 200hr YTTC and I am physically exhausted.😴😴 So much so that my mind can hardly feel tired because the body is too busy dominating that area. 😉 This time I ended up teaching for about 8 hours of the 24hr weekend.  It was great overall and it reminds me of my love for teaching itself when the students are keen and the subject is interesting. Therefore,…

  • 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…
