Wow, getting back into a routine can be tough.  We had the most wonderful vacation.  It was the most life changing trip I've ever had.  We went to Portland, Oregon.  The people were so amazing, free spirit, loving people in one city that I've ever seen.  People weren't so quick to judge others, and I so LOVE that.  We stayed in a beautiful Hotel that is 100 years old, and everything about it was wonderful. 
So, getting back to doing what I need to do, and the routine of making the time I need to do the things I so enjoy doing, is taking awhile.  Just trying to catch up again, but oh so worth it.  It was a trip I will cherish the rest of my life, and will diffidently go back again.
I did yard work today(two hours), enjoyed it so much, it gives you some time to really take in all the beauty.  See how the season is changing.  Speaking of changing, we are going to have our grandchildren this weekend while their parents go on a trip.  We haven't had the two of them overnight together.  They are getting so big, Changing, always changing.  It is such JOY to see your children and grandchildren grow into their beings.  Its amazes me.  Which hopefully we ALL continue to grow.
I will be working to unfold into my creative side of me this week, I will make room.
Goodnight beautiful day.

 

 

I had a full day today.  First off I headed to the chiropractor. The worst bedside manner I have seen, but, it worked!!!  I feel like I can now enjoy our up coming trip.  I'm thinking if I can get past this mans rudeness, I may go to him once a month!

Than one of the best parts of my day was visiting and having lunch with my dear friend that I haven't seen in awhile!!  It felt so good to catch up and this is a lady that just amazes me.  I'm going to be seeing her again Monday and get my hair done by her daughter who has moved back in the City!!!

Than, to top the evening off, not only by it being a Friday evening, but I had a wonderful dinner with the love of my life!  Can't get much better than that.

Know what I have gotten out of the habit doing is my morning routine.  I have been off of it for over a week now.  I haven't been able to do my walking or my yoga due to my hip.  So I'm going to give it a test run in the morning!!!  The weather has cool off this evening with a cool front that came in along with some much needed showers.  I'm so ready for fall.  The heat just take its toll on me.  I don't do HOT weather anymore!! 

I will be catching up on household cleaning and laundry this weekend, get started packing for our TRIP!!!!  Can't wait, hoping to come home refreshed and start back with new ideas, and putting my creative side to work!!

Goodnight beautiful day

I have come to truly realize that when I'm not productive, I'm so out of sorts.  I just sit and stew on

things that really and truly don't matter.  It also gives me time to think about things that get me upset

in a place I really don't want to go.  So...getting out of my ritual, really does put me in a place I don't

enjoy being.  I have come to see really how much ritual works.

Getting back in the grove this week! I have to do it know matter what is going on that day.  I get up

early enough to do what I need to do, so if something else comes up I can have time to do that also.

GROUNDED, BALANCE!!!  I HAVE to be these two things!!!  Breathe!!  Yes! 

I talked with my sweet grand-daughter today!!  She is getting so grown up and she only 3!!  Love this sweetheart. I'm looking forward to having my two babies in a few weeks for the weekend.  Fun, fun, fun. 

We are still having some crazy HOT weather!!  Triple digits STILL!!!  I would really love to get out and do some fun yard work, also, do some outside painting (door) but its too HOT!!!  Our pond is leaking water, so we have to find where it is.  I miss the sound of the water.

Goodnight beautiful day

Labor Day Holiday

 

Three day holiday is always a good thing.  Having a extra day just to be.  We all need to take more

time in our lives to just be.  Take time to find our balance and be grounded.  Last night was the Blue

Moon. The second full moon of the month, and it was beautiful. 

Today on Saturday's my husband has Thai Chi and we always meet as a group for lunch after their

class.  It's the one time of the week that we get to gather and share our story's and the latest of what is

new with family, etc.. We have a lot of laughs and, just a great time by all and I always

look forward to our time together.

This evening we went out to dinner with our dear friends.  My husband and I are going to be in their wedding.  It will be her first marriage and his third. They make a great couple, and have been together for five years now.  So, this is a big deal!  I'm so happy for them and excited at the same time.

My husband and I are looking forward to our trip to Oregon in less than two weeks.  We are also going to Denver at the end of December and part of the first of the year.  We are really getting into

doing more traveling.  Hoping to do as much as we can while we can do it.

I received the 10 day green diet.  I just received it today, and I'm really excited to start it.  I'm hoping it will give me more energy and just the whole body feel good experience.  I'm also looking forward to see how my skin looks and feels.  I'm also thinking it is something that I'm going to lean toward more often.  Just eating more healthy.  Baby steps all the way right now.  Just getting into my rituals of my daily living, I know how well it makes me feel inside and out.  So eating healthy I know will also do the same. 

Good evening beautiful Day
