Cloudy Days are here again



Blustery overnight. . . .go figure, 79 degrees and gusts up to 40 mph. . with the wind chill factor, what is the actual temperature?
Feels like 60 :-) But, you know, it's ALL Good! We 'Sunbathe' this morning, reading and soaking up the diffused light. We are wearing suits and flip flops, hanging out at the hot tub and hanging very loose. I have tan lines now :-) Wahoo.
Which reminds me: Yoga today was awesome. Hatha Flow One was 50 variations of the Sun Salutation/ Ashtanga style: hopping. The coolest sequence was Eagle pose,opening the wings,then bringing the big toes and heels together and squatting ,balancing on the tippy toes.. Then opening the stance and moving to Garland Pose flat footed. And from there tucked the knees into the armpits and moving the heart forward to balance on the arms in Crow Pose In reflexology the feet and ankles represent the head and neck, curious. eh?
In Savasana Carole said, " Loose your attachments and aversions ( didn't we just study these causes of suffering?) Move into your witness being. I felt myself soar and hover above the palm tops and witness.

Dan picked me up at 2. Time challenged, I have no idea where I am, who I am or what happens next after this yoga class. Lunch is on the agenda. Then a little dress shopping and back home for the Member's reception.
Later Dan watches whales and I find my first drawing of the week. It is so hard to begin, but ask myself what is the worst thing that can happen? I don't like it. Okay, Bye!
I like perfect and am acommodating my vision loss, "invite it all in, the good and the bad." Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
And so I paint.
Now for dinner, it's off to the BarB with a New York Steak and a little Walu. Time to meet the neighbors. . . . . .
