Another gorgeous day here in Connecticut.
I'm obsessed with this bird house. It's right outside our kitchen window. I like to watch the little birdies fly in and out.
By the end of the day I am so wiped lately! When I came back to work I went super full force, and every day I sort of feel like I'm hanging on for dear life.
The little one is in bed and I'm sitting here drinking a dark cup of coffee…in complete silence. It's beautiful. I'm actually thinking about doing some yoga tonight, which is a little uncharacteristic of me. I enjoy yoga, but I don't do it very often. Lately I feel a new appreciation for the combination of quiet, calm, strength that comes along with yoga.
That's probably because every day is a mad circus.
Yes, I'd prefer to pound out a few miles on the pavement, but I heard somewhere that 8 months old is too young to be left at home alone.
Figures.
My usual back up to running is riding my bike on the trainer…but life has been so hectic lately that I almost feel myself yearning for a slow challenge.
Yoga is SO HARD for me. First, it's hard for me to slow down. Second, I'm the least flexible human on the face of the earth. Ever. Running 15 miles is easier for me than doing 90 minutes of yoga. Sad huh?
That's another reason I like it. I learn something new about myself every time I do it.
Anyway. That was a lot of rambling about yoga.
Before my after school program today, Aria and I headed to the craft store. I'm working on making her a cute headband to wear with her dress on Sunday, for Mothers Day. I also needed some supplies for some Etsy shop items. I'm planning to open the shop in June. Work settles down for me A LOT in June, so I should be able to get everything listed!
The funny thing about the Etsy shop is that it isn't the making stuff part that takes me a long time. It's the picture posing and listing part that takes me forever.
A few people asked me where I bought the nail polish that I talked about in my last post Ginger and Liz. I bought it at Ulta, here in Milford. It looks like you can find it a bunch of places online. It is a little pricey. However, if you belong to the Ulta rewards program (I cannot for the life of me remember what it is called), they send you coupons every week for $3.50 off of a $10 purchase. With the coupon it runs the same price as other quality brands of polish.
Well, it's time for me to finish this coffee…then lay on couch licking my wounds.
I leave you guys with a very important questions tonight….
Which one of these did I eat first?
You'll never know.
Just kidding. The chocolate of coarse. What do you think I am? A barbarian?
