Misc…Yoga is still not a contact sport… Ug.
It has been awhile since I have blogged. I have to finish a lot of Rotary items to prep for the incoming year, have been working on a big DIY project and am busy at work so this is a brief catch up…
First, If you haven’t seen my little Peanut in her photo session, lets start here: www.leesiateh.com/slideshows/klein2 Beware, it is an extra cute slideshow.
Next I had a tiny victory and an embarrassing moment last night in mysore. I did a repeat. Sure enough in headstand, during a flailing moment, I kicked my instructor in the head. I was so embarrassed I put a towel over my face. I mean it isn’t as bad as say farting in class but Lori is SOOO nice and SOOO good to me and wham, I nail her in the head.
When am I going to learn that yoga is NOT a contact sport? The good news is that I finally made some tiny movement forward in bhujapidasana and was able to cross my feet. Of course they are still on the ground and that isn’t the posture, that is just me as a human starting to learn to get into the posture, then I have to learn to hold it here:
Then learn to balance my chin on the floor to here:
(and don’t these gentleman rock?) So I am a long way off but practice moves forward slowly so I appreciate these victory moments.
Meanwhile on the DIY front, I have made progress on turning my wooden Big Green Egg table that is chipping and needs a total face lift into something better. I am part way through tiling it to blend in with the stonework on my patio and in my fire pit. Here is the before and during (and yes this has been a lot of work):
Soon. Soon. Soon.
Sadly my agility school will be closing soon and I am not inclined to go back to my former school as they run the dogs outside in the heat. That may be a good break for me though to use that night as some down time or time to work more on my bhujapidasana!
Meanwhile I will get about 18 hrs with my honey this weekend! He will be home after six weeks for less than one day! Fortunately, he will be back next week.
That is all for now, just a brief update…
