This was me when I woke up this morning-I look ridiculous. I have a zit on my lip and it is making my lips all pouty. I keep laughing at myself when I look in the mirror. My upper lip looks like a sausage.

I woke up late this morning. Well, only 10 minutes but enough to get you a center-stage location at Tim's studio. I like those mornings when you have no expectations about your practice, you just show up. I had a really nice, intuitive practice. I concentrated on my breath. I wasn't sore. I almost made it all the way into Samakonasa- the ultimate test of how flexible I am for the day.
Kiran had showed me a great eka pada raj kapotasana anusara adjustment which really gets into those hips. I almost made it into padmasana in Karanda Vasana today, almost! Andrew was standing nearby and said "I thought you had that one!" All is coming, all is coming...

I did vrishtikasana in handstand all by myself and my feet were dangling in front of my eyes. Pretty crazy, eh?

I'm in a good mood today. Good yoga, worked a little, very sunny and beautiful out, now home and don't really have much I need to do. Might go to a movie or rent one tonight cause B has class.

Speaking of B, he's yummmmmmmmmy. He doing some work and furrowing his brow like always when he's on the computer.

So much better than last week. It is moon day tomorrow so I think we are going hiking somewhere. I need to get into better hiking shape so I can prepare for my Grand Canyon trip next month.

Yesterday we went to the pound to see if our dog Lander was there. No sign of him. He has been gone for 3 and a half days now. Kinda scary to think that somebody either has him and isn't letting us know, or that he could be dead somewhere. We don't really know what to think. I feel bad because he got out on my watch and he was definitely mad at me because I had yelled at him for tearing down the curtains and chewing and scratching the door that afternoon. Weird thing is that I think someone may have left him out cause our door wasn't bolted when I got home and I had definitely left it bolted.

So other than wondering about the dog, it has been a good day. Those are my wise words for the day... I feel pleasantly optimistic, hmmm, I wonder how long this is going to last.
