Blog aversion...

I've been experiencing it lately. Averse to my own blog that is, not yours. :) I've been feeling all kinds of other things too, mainly restless and tired of not just saying how I feel or doing what I feel like doing. And I'm having trouble expressing my thoughts and feelings through the written word. I've always had trouble getting what's in my head into words, but it's been worse lately. My balance is off. My full schedule has something to do with this. I haven't been practicing yoga regularly; my chakras are all foggy and smoggy and off-kilter.

I'm making my spiritual health and getting myself back on track a priority.

My sister-in-law has not had the baby yet. She'll have her any day now. Her doctor won't induce because there is no medical reason to do so. I totally agree. Becca (sister-in-law) does not. She's young and tired of being pregnant. I can certainly relate: been there, done that. Abigail will be born soon and in the blink of an eye she'll be 21 years old just like my son. Le sigh.

My grandmother is doing well. We talk on the phone for a few minutes every night and I go visit her twice a week. Mentally, she's getting stronger every day. Physically, she still has limitations but she has learned to cope.

My son has decided that he wants to be a physics teacher! I'm so happy for him!!! He loves animals and did want to be a veterinarian for some time, but his love of physics has been apparent since he was four years old and he loves to teach. It makes perfect sense. Whatever he does, I'm proud of him. He's a good person.

Not much else to talk about really. School is going well, work is...well, work, Zeke is losing weight (still can't believe I had to put my dog on a weight loss plan) and Earl is just as lazy as ever.

I made the most delicious banana nut bread over the weekend. Sorry for not posting the six on Sunday. I'll do it this weekend. If I'm still feeling blah, I'll post an excerpt from Thich Nhat Hanh's You are Here. It's a wonderful book that I'm re-reading.

Hope y'all are having a great week. I'm thinking of you often. Love you all a bunch! xoxoxo
