Kind of hard to get back into it!

I've been feeling rather slow and foggy the past couple of days... I need a holiday to recover from my holiday!!! I'm so slow, I still haven't gone shopping for groceries. That's on the agenda for tomorrow, after yoga. Thankfully I've been eating out a bit... getting caught up with friends... and there's borscht in the freezer (and leftover pizza in the fridge now) for tomorrow's supper.

I filled my car with gas on Sunday, it was so low that the gas light was on. $39 for a fill... we'll see how long it lasts. Betcha gas in my new car will cost me half of what my truck cost... or even less, depending on how the mileage is. I think I spend over $80 for my last fill in the truck.

This might gross people out, but yoga is so hot and sweaty that my fingers get all wrinkly :) like I'm swimming or soaking in the tub. I love it. Speaking of, it's great to be back at yoga, I missed it but somehow that just makes it so much more enjoyable to go back. Today Janelle mentioned that today and yesterday are the two most emotional days of the year... funny becuase I've been feeling pretty anxious since I got back from holidays. It was good to have a reminder from her that no matter what is going on around us, we have the choice of how to react towards others... and she renewed my focus to react with love. Not to say I'm always successful... and it's certainly hard to open my heart at times... but it is my choice and I will strive towards that as much as possible.

Funny how that went from wrinkly fingers to deep thoughts. Ha!

Work has been busy but quiet, and the quiet is striking due to the resignation of my co-worker and close friend, and to a couple of other people being gone for work or vacation. The sting of Christie being gone is somewhat lessened by the beautiful gifts she and her family left for AK and I. AK now has a beautiful cross pendant that she wore for about an hour yesterday, and I have a lovely new bracelet which I wore today. It will compete for time on my wrist with the bracelet I bought earlier this year. Such sweet thoughtful gifts, and wonderful reminders of our friendship with the Mosers.

Off to bed!!! xo
