THIS WEEKEND I:
- closed my eyes and felt the warm yellow sun on my face.
- wrote a letter to a friend while Veda napped next to me outside.
- sat by a still-smoking bon fire.
- oversaw a tent being erected in the wind. (I was toting Veda so I wasn’t able to help in the construction. Instead, I fulfilled my role as “resident bossy person”. hee)
- celebrated my niece’s 1st birthday.
- experienced the present moment. and the present moment. and the present moment.
- soothed a crying baby.
- did zerberts on a happy baby.
- got my hair chopped. (much faster to dry this mop now.)
- got a knot in my neck. (to be worked out Wed at massage school.)
- prayed.
- noticed how intensely green the grass is where the sun meets the shadows.
- ate spicy mexican food.
- went kayaking for the first time since I was 4 months pregnant. (bliss!)
- rolled up my cuffs and waded in the lake.
- burned incense and drank chai.
- loved my cutie husband (who also got a much needed mop chop).
- Did a smidgeroo of yoga with Veda. (The cat says meow meow. The cow says moo moo. The dog says woof woof. The snake says ssss… sss…. — This gets big smiles from the wee one.)
- saw the bottoms of my feet were dirty. (A sure sign of a good weekend.)
What did ya’ll do?
i know, right?
whenever there’s dirt under the nails and at the bottom of our soles, it’s been a great weekend. our kind of weekend :)
my weekend:
creating away merrily.
also:
bookstores. waffles for breakfast. drinking tea for hours in the sunshine. more bookstores. being crazy-at-peace-in-love.

thank you for this post it was wonderful.
Last weekend. hmmm…Ate a yummy breakfast prepared by my lovely husband, shaved his head, went to dinner at our favorite pizza spot, cuddled, did Yoga…well that was the good stuff..
there was plenty of other things like spending hours in front of the computer wrestling with code for a website, taking photos of a house for a realtor, editing those photos, doing school work, being really tired and a bit crabby…but you know if i just focus on the good things it was a nice weekend…right?
We paddled this weekend, too. I LOVE Kayaking. We put our 5 year old (with PFD of course!)up front in my hubby’s and hit the local lakes, rivers and creeks. There are a ton here in VA. It’s what summer is all about! Glad you got your bliss on!
