Cables and handstands!

It's only 2pm but what a day it's been so far!!!

Mike and Julie agreed to look after AK while I went to yoga this morning. I left my truck with them so that they could go over to Camana Bay. Guess when they got in the truck to go, it wouldn't go! It started but the gears wouldn't shift. Luckily I had the stroller in there so they just set that up and walked over. The tow truck came quickly and took the truck to the dealership, I am just waiting to hear from them what the problem is but the tow truck guys seems to think the gear shift cable (probably not the technical name!) came loose and needs to be replaced. Luckily Mike is kind enough to lend me his car for now... thank goodness for great friends.

Today's yoga class was led by a guest instructor. It was really neat - he started with a great meditation session with chanting, which we don't often have. So that was really powerful, and interesting. Later in the practice we did handstands, and I had a wonderful breakthrough with my handstands - I AM strong enough to do them! My last one was so joyful that I kept forgetting to breath but it was really awesome to realize that my upper body IS strong enough to support me and I CAN do it! The euphoria from the handstand meant that I wasn't even upset about the truck :)

AK has been a superstar today - she peed for me and for Julie, even though she has a pullup on when we go out, she still lets someone know when it's time to get on the toilet. I was actually on the phone with the dealership when she came to me and started tugging on my dress to pull me into the bathroom. She helped Julie make pizza and cookies for lunch. Yum. (I just got up to get one of the cookies that Julie sent home with me).

I might as well rest while AK is napping... this cold has nearly run its course. xo
