An Ordinary Day

Twelve people at the Y class yesterday - and again 3 new ones. How rewarding it is to see new ones showing up each week! -----My physical was great! All the blood work is good and nothing to say except get a TAPD vaccination (tetanus and whooping cough) which I did - by the way, the last two doctor visits I've had to pay out of my pocket for the first time in many years! Not much, thank goodness, but still, times are changing. $19 to the dentist and $52 yesterday for the vaccination. Anyway, I'm good to go for another year. ----Waiting for the plumber now to fix the leak in the commode at the cabin and check my hot water heater. I had been tentatively planning to go to Yogaville in March for an Ayurveda Yoga Therapy training with Mukunda Stiles. BUT, finally I checked and discovered it just won't work , It's at least a 7-hour drive and I can't go early and split the driving - so I'll look for something else more feasible - perhaps another trip to Santa Fe in late summer----I turned in my employment papers yesterday to the Y which commits me now to a Monday morning class there. Kind of nice to have the structure of yoga classes to build my retirement life around. I learned early on that at least some structure is very important to my wellbeing. As you can see, no earthshaking thoughts this morning - just ordinary life. Some of these days are welcome!
