Random Thoughts - AGAIN

Ah, just spotted the dogwood next to the Yogatorium. I'd forgotten it was there - and now it, too, is showing renewed life. What a show-off it is! The rain is to come today and welcome it is. We are turning yellow and need a good washing down. ---- Checked in with Dr. Hall yesterday and was told to be patient since the pleurisy is much improved - just wait. Reassuring. ---- Watched a fun TV show last evening - "The Shark Tank" - quite by accident. Absolutely amazing how much money gets thrown around in our country. Some really neat inventions - I particularly liked the technologically updated pogo stick. ----- Began taking L-Glutamine powder, an amino acid building block of protein, this morning. Dr. Biddle says it will reduce cravings - in particular my sugar one. What a find this will be if it works! Stay tuned. I'll let you know. ------ Just rambling this morning - waiting for 10:30 yoga class. Then, a nice long day of writing research - having fun retrieving facts about myself from my journals - things I had totally forgotten that seemed insignificant at the time but important now. For example, I began teaching yoga on Tuesdays here at the Lutheran Church in February of 2005 and didn't actually move here until October of 2006. So, I was making weekly trips (1-1/2 hours each way) to enjoy the teaching of yoga and the solitude of being at the Pond overnight or sometimes longer. So, for nearly two full years I was living in two places at once. Bob came with me a few times, but not often. We both enjoyed the separate times as well as the times together in Clemson. Time for pre-yoga meditation at the Yogatorium.
