Ya..WoW!! life gets crazy!
Just trying to get through the everyday stuff can be hard enough.
I guess that is why Buddhist say life is about suffering.
But when it get harder and it got harder this week!!!!! You (I) can focus on the stuff that get you through the day, on the good stuff. And I believe that is what buddha was really saying.
He wasn't saying focus/embrace on the bad stuff. He meant the bad stuff the hard stuff will happen. We need to remember as we struggle and toil, the joys in our life and the world.
It is like the saying...... Why do we have death???? To make life so important.
With out struggle the sunrise, the wag of your dogs tail, the meow of the cat, and the kiss you have been waiting wouldn't be a sweet.
And as I sit here missing my husband madly........ Reminding myself of the love, the great times we have had and the better times to come!
Enjoy the beautiful night!

So little time.....
So much to do!
At least that is what i tell myself.
Yes there are daily things that need to get done... and mostly do.
There are those project list, that never get finished. Seems as I get near crossing everything off the list new projects come up.
But truly to often I find myself distracted by the computer and the TV.
I am going to try to re-focus myself.... honestly it is summer and there is nothing good on..... But anyway, maybe this will be a way to start. Trying to make the daily chores and the list project more present... make them yoga.
I once read in one of my books, Before I was Buddha I chopped wood and after I became Buddha I chopped wood.
We all have that Buddha within us, we all just need to find a way to let her out!
And the time is now!
Namaste!

The Adventure of the Day
So it has been a few days. you would think when Mark is away I would have all this spare time. Just able to sit an enjoy........ I always find myself doing a project.... repainting, redoing a room.....or just a super clean up job. That was some of the case, trying to get the house in order. Trying to get caught up of stuff.
STUFF??? ya needed new pants, all my pants stretched over the winter??? Oh no maybe I shrunk just a little... either way I needed to pick up some summer pants and shorts. The others were falling off--- how attractive! No fear bum will be covered by a few new pairs!
My adventure...if I choice to take it will be going through the racks of clothes I have to get rid of the larger than life things... Not only the toooo big stuff but the stuff I should wear... OH MY!
I truly wish I was one of those people who can just sit around and sit around. No TV was sit and be. I find myself needed to be engaged in something to be settled. maybe this is why I like vinyasa practice so much. I can move around, but sometimes for that brief moment I can just settle in and be.
Namaste!

Holidays....
I have been taking a Holiday from the blog. Not on purpose, life happens..... Husband home, husband's bday, husband back to work and much housework. It amazing how much mess two people make... and two dogs and three cats.
Yesterday was my outside yoga class day. Which almost didn't happen, George has been sick again. (George, 6.5 years old Golden Retriver) He has been having dizzy spells we think now and facial swelling. There is not alot to do for him... just be there. He was sleeping, sound so I decided to go. Today he is still about the same :(
Just sitting around listen to my son's radio show (UNregularradio.com --- you can listen on them through itunes---- Local Boston Music) and uploading photos to my website www.sound1photography.com and to my facebook Danette yogainme and babysitting G.
Thought it was going to rain!!!! 430P and no rain. That S$%cks I had set my day around it.
Need to finish up that last bit of housework before 545P class.
