It felt so good to sleep last night. I finally felt caught up when I woke up... ah.... Practice was awesome. It was so hot in there I even had to pull the blanket out for seated postures. I don't sweat much by nature but I was loaded today. One of those days when you take off your shirt after practice and it's a wet blob. Today's major attached-to-the-physical moment was when I successfully pulled off the vinyasa transition for Garbha Pindasana. The funny thing was, I just didn't think about it. I just, for whatever reason, just didn't give a split second of thought as to where I was gonna put these implants and boom there it was. It wasn't like it used to be but it was there and that's a huge moment for me.

In many ways, it's like a gift... I've been struggling over the past couple days with my emotions. In some ways I think to myself "I should just be the hell over this whole thing already." The reality is, I likely won't be over "it" anytime soon, I suppose. It's become a part of the lessons in this lifetime... the things I have to work the journey through. The practice has this way of showing us that, with all those lessons, sometimes you just gotta let it all go, not think and just do. Less thinking, more doing.

After practice I took The Daughter and we met up with Tiff for a girl's day out. We got smoothies at Jimbos. We made an appointment for manicures and pedicures. We went and had sushi while we waited (and I don't mind saying with full motherly pride that The Daughter was quite cute trying to use chopsticks for her avocado roll)... We happened to run into C checking out the new studio so we got to go check it out too. It's really nice inside. The wood floors look beautiful. It will be wonderful to see it with all the energy of Hanuman in there! Wednesday... I'm over wondering how different it's going to be or how much further or what the new class times might be... I'm just ready to be somewhere where we're "home." I love the temporary space though... okay well... it would be perfect with heat and I don't mind saying I am STOKED we'll have heat on Wednesday.

The Daughter got purple nail polish with little fishes on her toes and a flower that matched the one Tiff and I got on our toes on her thumbs. Tiff and I went to the bookstore and had a run in with a scary guy in the "self-help" aisle who was determined to listen to our sex conversation and chime in with his expert opinion. With The Daughter having so much attention, I decided I really had to spend equal attention on The Son. Of course, he has no desire to get his toes done but he DID really, really want to go to McDonalds. And, so friends, I ate at McDonalds tonight. GAG... but, really... in my Beat Myself Up Have To Be Always Equal Mommy Paranoia Mode, equal meant "anywhere" he wanted to eat. Why those words came out of my mouth I have no idea but there I was at McDonalds tonight, reading Garfield at the table with my oldest child.

I bought lipgloss today. It's freaking me out... stilletos, earrings, manicures, pedicures, dresses, makeup, births... I might just really be a girl! Wild.
