10-28/10-29 Walk Outside

Hubby and I walked our usual route yesterday and we are about to go out for our regular walk again today.

10-25 Walk on Treadmill 10-26 Walk Outside, Yoga

10-25 I walked 20 min. on the treadmill since it was raining outside. It still feels harder to walk on the treadmill and I can feel it in my legs and rear today.

10-26 I walked outside for 45 min, then cooled down with Yoga. I felt good today and just kept walking when I was nearing the end of my usual route. It only takes a rainy day to make one appreciate the sunny ones!

10-24 Yoga

A light day of my full yoga routine. I may walk on the treadmill later...

10-20 Walk Outside

Walked outside with hubby to the far back area again. Ankles are swelling again. I might go to the doc, since hubby keeps nagging about it.

10-17, 18 Bike, Walk

10-17 I enjoyed a wonderful bike ride today. It was a seemingly effortless event with minimal wind and cool temps. I cooled off with a short and brisk walk around the block.

10-18 Ditto yesterday, but face got sunburnt cause I forgot my hat.

10-14 Walk Outside

Hubby and I walked a longer walk than the usual route today.

10-12 Walk Outside

Walked my usual route for 30 minutes. It's very cool today. I had to wear a jacket. Nice.

10-10 Walk, Yoga

Walked on the treadmill today and did my yoga routine since it was raining outside. The treadmill is so much harder than outside.

10-7 Hubby and I went for a bike ride again. We went further back into a new area being built in our subdivision.

10-8 Hubby and I walked the longer route way to the back area of the subdivision. There is a very beautiful, quiet place near the woods and we heard so many different bird songs; it was very enriching. I picked out the plot where I would like to build us a new house, overlooking a little pond and close to the wooded area with the multitudinous birds. Just a fantasy... Hey, but it could happen. It doesn't hurt to imagine.

10-6 Bike

Beautiful bike ride in the open air and music in my ears. No easier today, but lighter thoughts and strong diligence to continue on my path(s). I'm unstoppable.

10-5 Bike

Rode my bike again today with my mp3 player. It's nice to hear songs while I'm riding. I don't know if anything's happening with my body. I guess I just let it go. But there's a part of me that is bummed out. Maybe more bummed that I'm older, than having a big body. Anyway, just bummed. I need to get back to the floor and meditate more regularly. I see myself getting so tangled up in the passing phenomenon. It's just flow, passing by. And so is the bummed feeling, too. Sometimes I wonder if it matters that I'm on a journey to slimness, or on a journey in meditation, or on a journey in my music career. If it's passing flow, then does it really matter? I know I read something about that somewhere. Yes, it does matter. I forgot why.

I think it matters because these are the very moments I can observe and be mindful. I can watch right now, the feeling of disappointment that there is not something bigger than just the songs I've written and the gigs I've played. I can watch my lack of ambition when I exert energy, riding into the wind, knowing that there will not be even one ounce lost from this body. I can watch how turbulent and anxious I become with life events when I don't take the time to center myself and sit in meditation. I can watch how I do everything else, but that which benefits my feeling of well being. I can watch it without judgment. I'm not bad. I'm not good. I'm just here observing the flow...

10-4 Bike, Yoga

I rode my bike again today and did yoga.

Down Time

Saturday I had a music gig. After we finished, we walked around all day at the festival. I got sunburnt and may have come down with a cold - I haven't been feeling well since then. I missed my walk Sun. and Mon. I did ride my bike yesterday. Today, I'm feeling better. I'll ride bike again today.
