Sunday

We set up our home shrine and posted it to our livejournals yesterday. One more tick box on the road to completing our DPs done. :)

Today is a get things in order day. We are headed out for dinner and a concert with my Mom-in-law this afternoon. It will be nice not to be on the hook to make supper tonight. The "kids" can fend for themselves.

Back from Camping to the "real world"

Well it is a rainy day here in Ottawa. Had an amazing four days at Wellspring in Sherman, NY. Definitely a do again for next year!

Just spending the day getting the house back in order as it is definitely an inside only day.

Will write again tomorrow.

Ciao for now and blessings to all!

Change is a good thing

Woke up to an email from my friend who is spending 10 weeks in a remote location, gardening, exercising, yoga and eating right. She mentions that she has little technology access and will be sending sporadic notes now and then. She is looking forward to the change that will take place in her life over the coming weeks. It will be interesting to see her again at the end of July! :)

This made me think of what I want to accomplish this summer. I too am looking for change and have made slow steps to get there... we have implemented a new vegetarian diet using SparkPeople to track our progress. I also have the promise of yoga lessons from my Mother's Day gift and hope to soon attempt that. I also have to remember to try to walk on a daily basis. The puppy loves this! We still have to set up our home gym once the weather behaves in the evenings LOL!

Oh well, steady and surely wins the race. I must be patient and implement change slowly in my own life as there are other people involved and I am not in a strange place for 10 weeks in a type of body boot camp, like my friend. Any change is good.

Almost a year!

Wow. I can't believe it has been three days away from a year since I posted on this blog. So much has happened in the past year. I now know my Patrons, Zeus and Artemis... I now wish to be known as Nikandre Kore as my online name.

Long time no blog

well it has been 11 days since i have written. i m writing on my eeepc, tiny computer, as mine is being used for homework. the keyboard is so small that there won't be any punctuation or capitals.

i am watching the dog whisperer and i am once again amazed at how wonderful dogs are. they are so loving and trusting. maybe we should just all be in touch with nature like the balanced dog.

Day is done... late night post.

Well it is weird but Friday's post doesn't seem to be showing on my blog. I have made a point of posting something every day! Now my perfect record is besmirched.

It is very late as we have just gotten back from visiting with our friends who are moving. We will have one last visit before they leave the area. Hopefully we will go and visit them this summer.

I am going to head to bed now.... It is Mother's Day in the morning. :)

A Tiring Day but a Good one!

Well it is the end of another work day and I am heading home. I was up at 5 this morning working on a project for work and I am definitely feeling the effects of a late night and early morning!

Tonight we are headed to the NAC to hear a performance of the Oratorio, Elijah. Hopefully I can stay awake and the soothing ochestra and choral pieces won't put me to sleep! LOL

Lindley got some great news today, she has been asked to sing in the Kiwanis Highlights Concert this year. This is a real honour and she is looking forward to singing in front of a nice big audience. She has been asked to sing Handel's Oh Had I Jubal's Lyre.

I haven't had the chance to do any work towards balancing and finding self today. It has just been way too busy! Maybe tomorrow...
