I have been wanting a puppy. My beagle mix rescue needs a little sister, I need a wholesome project. And so I went to the shelter today and adopted the first one my daughter and I looked at, she was so sweet~ and I was surprised how easy it was, especially after this was a long time in the planning.  Well...Tiki isn't having any of her, she is not house trained, and seven hours later she finally passed out amid the rubble from her non-stop very bad manners. So far I'm just calling her Brat and I think I'm in love! ;)

 Yesterday, I taught a class on finding the quiet in the center of the storm. This is the main reason I do yoga, I simply want to live a peaceful life! But I need it for the injuries along my spine, too. I need it to help me open up my lungs to feed my body with more breath! I need it to tame the creative force that sometimes comes spiralling up and out of me! And to temper the frustration I feel at the injustices of the world. I'm so grateful for the practice that helps me in all of these things~ how does it help you?

 Today I woke up at 8:50. Waking up late always used to mess up my schedule. Precovid I'd like to rise early.  Getting a late start used to make me hit the floor running, like I had some minimum output to be met and I was already behind.  Current circumstances have shifted my default settings. This week, I had to leave the house only once, for an orthodonty appointment, and I don't mind much. So today I woke up at 8:50, moseyed my walk with my dog, came back in to the smell of fresh coffee. Ken has always been a  late sleeper. We are beginning to come into synch.

This next wave of pieces I am doing are influenced by...well let's say...the times. First, they project power in beaUty and grace, reminiscint of the mandala. So many new horizons are being crossed in so many directions!

But then, if necessary, you can wear them like a shield.

HAPPY SOLSTICE!
