This is what I love about Pilates, what happens to me with a good massage, even what I get from relaxing into a facial . . . finally allowing myself deep breaths, realizing I've been stuck on shallow ones for days, maybe weeks . . . Life goes better with breathing! ;-)<br />IndiAl: Spring/Summer/Early fall are so much easier to dress for -- dressing for cold and wind and rain can be such a bother, even if we're eager in September to get the woolies out.<br />Your sister sounds wonderfully thoughtful, and you must have so appreciated her kindness even through your morphine fog.materfamiliashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16062766947897513369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-62242213878904274792010-01-14T02:13:09.826-08:002010-01-14T02:13:09.826-08:00I have been there to with the tires sucking up the...I have been there to with the tires sucking up the road. The whole sartorial compromise we make for the weather is a pain, I do sometimes envy those that drive to work wearing so much less than me, but they are also 2 sizes larger than me so I figure sucks to be them.<br />My unexpected gift was of course from my sister, whilst heavily dosed on morphine she arrived bringing me requested nightwear and deodorant, but then gave me a tube of Elemis day cream, I was so touched, by the thought and the generosity.indigo16https://www.blogger.com/profile/16982477144454205765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-30392104185324347472010-01-13T22:01:34.072-08:002010-01-13T22:01:34.072-08:00MOM!

I learned in yoga that small movements can make HUGE differences. I take that insight into my work and into my personal life. It helps a lot.<br /><br />My biggest holiday gift was having a dear friend come and visit. It was anything better than any gift that could be bought.La Belette Rougehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05686717070120116918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-79426910585004806022010-01-13T13:16:54.857-08:002010-01-13T13:16:54.857-08:00I love that he noticed and took care of it without...I love that he noticed and took care of it without pointing it out.
