I know its partially because of being cooped in with the weather and also partially because we didn't have our usual weekend schedule with @teamhumble ‘s Bella girl, which I really quite missed. Usually we spend time gaming, watching cake decorating videos on YouTube and playing with Kinetic sand or painting our nails. It’s a really nice pin in the end of the week.
Although we’ve made a few runs out to the local shop today is the first day we’ve taken the bus to head into the main town since our big trip to Matlock last Monday.
It’s still cold, but nothing like what it’s been. I foolishly decided to ditch my jacket because when its been that cold, any sight sign of warmer weather makes me want to bust out the shorts and sandals. I brought an extra layer in my bag for when I have a wet head after swimming.
Which brings me to swimming! YAY! My back and sore muscles are craving a good swim. I guess I didnt realize how much I pushed myself in Yoga yesterday or maybe its been the time off but I woke up this morning SORE!! My whole torso/core region, shoulders and upper arms and hips. That swim is going to do me so much good, I can’t wait.
Being in town also reminds me that I need to find a class and book the local yoga studio! It’s something I really wanted to challenge myself to do because I’ve always had such a hang up about practicing around other folks. Especially in a structured “class” setting. Gotta figure out the logistics and time it right with the bus schedule and try to fins a way to give my mat a decent hose/down since I’ve been using it outside, but I really want to have a go at it if I can.
Today is Day 2 of Gratitude in my MeditationMarch challenge and I’m so looking forward to it, I may do a few sun salutations or stretches before hand depending on how I’m feeling. I’m finding that its the absolutely best way to quiet the mind before meditation. Something physical beforehand always unlocks that sense of stillness for me.
Which reminds me of yesterdays heartbreak!

Ok I’m being dramatic, but I seem to have lost the little rubber earpiece that goes to the right earbud on my headphones that I use for yoga and meditation. Kind of a super bummer only having one ear, but I remember @saramiller telling me at steemfest2 that if you've misplaced something Saint Anthony has the hookup for you, or was it Francis... damnit! Which is the saint for remembering what saint does what..?
I know its a crazy long shot. It’s a tiny piece of rubber somewhere in a van which has a unique appetite for small electronics, adapters, and socks, somehow by putting it out into the universe and the bockchain, it will return to me somehow...

OK! It’s time I wrap up, in the midst of typing to you I’ve smashed half a vegetarian breakfast and some porridge and we’re about ready to finish our coffees and head out.
OMGOMGEE!! @teamhumble just looked at me and asked if I wanted to go to a big dog show this week. I just about did a backflip in my seat. We’re going to run the numbers and see if its possible money-wise, but damn would I absolutely LOVE to go! Fingers crossed!

I hope wherever youre waking up this morning, you have access to a warm beverage and you’re easing into the day gently. I know we’re not out of the woods with this winter yet. Hang in there folks!
