Just got into a fight outside the post office…
I went up the road to mail a card–(Bendy, Sparky you know what this is all about…)–and in the compound just outside our little neighbourhood PO there was a dispatch bike down on the driveway & an SUV in front of it. Rider was dazed & defensive [...]

I thought I had my 2008 writing plans pretty well laid out–& made quite a good start with January (3 stories & a proposal letter sent out)… I was going to work ’seriously’ on the edit/rewrite of the mystery novel while laying down the first draft of the novella & ‘playing’ at writing ‘Burning Memories [...]

… much as I enjoy a break, I realise there are so many things I take for granted about home–till I miss them.
Did an almost full home practice today, didn’t push it (did garba pindasana without putting arms through, tried 3 times to ‘close’ in ubhaya padangusthasana & sort of managed on the 3rd [...]

Went back to Pure Yoga for mysore practice this morning. Quite a full class. It’s good to be back–everything is clean, safe & familiar… but more than ever I don’t know whether this is where I want to be long term.

Chiang Mai was a great experience… I had a really, truly wonderful week there, but–
Okay, my thoughts/experiences in no particular order:
I was sharing a room with Jean & Irene in the posh BP Hotel; Chris & Kelly being adventurous & setting off into the hills for trekking as soon as we landed. But sharing [...]

Did Ashtanga Primary at home this morning… most of it, but not all. Very scattered practice interrupted by thoughts of what I ought to be packing and finally to drive neighbours (they are new grandparents) to the nearest mrt station to look at 6 week old first grandchild…
But quite/very sweet, really. Heard all about how [...]

(If you clicked over from my yoga blog, don’t bother reading this–I did a copy & paste…)
Was feeling distracted–going to Thailand on Tuesday, email this morning can you send a story, around 2000 words, before end of Jan? Normally I’d be thrilled but … going to Thailand on Tuesday…
That was what was in my head [...]

… Story to ReadTheseLips!
Something wrong with my skills/priorities, given that trying to find them a photo (well, finding a photo that hasn’t already been used somewhere else) was tougher than writing the story? But when you consider I only get photographed when someone needs a pic–makes sense, right?
