My ramblings and wanderings through life

  • 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…

  • 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.…
