I was on my way to buy an ergonomic keyboard and much to my surprise found myself at home depot browsing through flowers!
I have two large cement planters on my patio. I bought flowers for them. A neighbor taught me how to add height by cutting the base off an el cheapo hanging basket and putting it in the middle of the planter and then planting additional flowers around the edge. I am hoping they turn out beauooooootiful.
My laptop hip is doing better than it has done in months! There is a little tenderness - not the kind that makes you yelp with pain. Yesterday's yoga class was called a hatha class but it was more like power yoga to me. I am "face sweater" - by no stretch of the imagination can it be called "glowing." There droplets of sweat all over my mat from the exertion. I am going to have take a towel with me next time.
No drop in weight yet - but at least I am fitting back into my clothes and am no longer "muffin top"
My laptop is propped up on a stand with the screen at eye-level. And I am typing on a wireless ergonomic keyboard. Hopefully that will help keep me a spry 42 - it was no fun being forced into a geriatric body by my computer.
For the first time in months - I have watched not one - but 3 movies: Gone Baby Gone, Love in a time of cholera, Sex and the city (in a real movie theater!). I am starting to feel myself slowly relax more and more. I am sleeping very deeply at night - especially on my yoga days.
I am slowling picking up work again. No pressing deadlines right now. I would like to keep it that way. The plan is to take all of July off from major work stuff. I feel like I am already slowing down the pace. I think I am going to institute "summer work hours" at my firm from June through August.
Life is good! It really feels good to be able to move my right leg w/o having it feel like dead weight again.
