Meh



Whenever my daughter doesn't want to make a decision or take a stand or discuss something or answer a question she says "Meh" and shrugs her shoulders. While it doesn't really intellectually stimulate the senses, I feel it really gets the point across. So, in regards to my unpublished post yesterday.....Meh.

Whew. Got through the hard part. My life has been very hectic. All wonderful, extend myself challenges that went well. But as of last night, I was feeling a bit over stretched. But fortunately, I have no more major events til the end of the month so I can catch up on business. When I began the month I tried to sit with my calendar and give myself enough space to breathe and enough activity to really start my business with a bang. I think I did that to some extent but life is always evolving and we are always learning.

The Gentle Yoga has been very nice, the church has mistakenly put that I am teaching it on Thursdays too though and I had not intended to do so. However, I have a client who wanted private yoga at that time and will not mind sharing so we may see if it is something people want. I'm happy because it made a space for an old student and it's very relaxing. Not well attended yet, but the caller notice just came out after it last week so we'll see. This class will stay.

The Restorative Yoga sold out. I was a bit nervous because I only knew one person and it's been a looong time since I walked into a class cold but it went very well. Many asked me to do it every week and wanted my cards for other classes so it seemed very well received. Rhia sewed me some new cushions so we have simplified the lugging around process. This class will stay.

The Meditation Tea was just me and my sistas. The tea was nice, I found a tea set but the meditation was iffy due to the age of my sistas that day LOL--it's hard to do with 12 year olds. Especially if you use the word 'coccyx". I was considering canceling it all together but I have had quite a few contact me after, telling me they really wanted to attend but couldn't due to prior commitments. I was thinking of changing the day/time but have agreed to do one more and see how it goes.

The Reiki Exchange New Night will take a while to catch on again, I suppose. We had one person and I had the good fortune to have Jan & Sheree do Reiki on me. They are wonderful--and I really needed it. Had some very bad news the night before that affected me more than I thought. All 3 of us have agreed to wait this one out and see if we get our groove back now that the Caller is regular and summer is over.

Reiki in my new "office' has been wonderful. Have had a few clients with some very nice results. Chatting on the couch afterwards is really fun too. This I will keep. I love doing Reiki. Also got an opportunity to do some spirit card readings out back--I love doing this too. So that will stay.

The Couples Yoga has a couple couples signed up. Unfortunately, one of my sign ups has broken her ankle so I think she may have to cancel :) Keep praying for her! We will wait this one out too--may change the venue if attendance is sparse.

Sun Salutations is very fun. I haven't really promoted this so it's been just us guys--last week the "class" ended up at The Grill....This one will stay for the most part just because it's a special treat for me, I don't really teach, I just do. I love doing Sun Salutations in the morning, so this is my guilty pleasure. Especially if we go to the Grill after. LOL

My regular classes at the gym have been enormous. CCPC is always hit or miss, I think evening classes blow in the wind. 5678 is consistent. We may change the day/time on that one.

So. There you go. A recap and summary. And we are only a little more than half way through the month. And next month gets busier with SoulCollage and Evening at CCPC auditions and rehearsals. Rut roh.

Not to worry.....by then it will all come to me and run like a smoothly oiled clock. Right? Faith!

I keep having that line from that old Bob Segar song "Against the Wind" in my head:

"what to leave in, what to leave out"

In context:

"Against the wind
A little something against the wind
I found myself seeking shelter against the wind

Well those drifter's days are past me now
I've got so much more to think about
Deadlines and commitments
What to leave in, what to leave out

Against the wind
I'm still runnin' against the wind
I'm older now but still runnin' against the wind
Well I'm older now and still runnin'
Against the wind
Against the wind
Against the wind"


Meh.

You do sound busy. Broken leg girl is either in pain or dopey with pain med. Surgery will be tomorrow. Maybe next week she can stay awake for Reiki. Thanks for your love and healing prayers.
