2014: Come an' Get It!

It is slowly beginning to take a life.

the race.

it is part of my everyday now.

and this is what i've got.
i move many logs

i have 9 remaining sun salutations to knock out before the day is done.

sweet...they are each like a little mini-massage

19 sun salutations

I'm recommitting.
To 19 sun salutations a day.
starting tomorrow. no...really.

The Only Ones on the Planet?!

Spaghetti Squash

We had spaghetti squash with ground elk meat tonight for dinner. Daddio believes we are the only one eating that for dinner tonight

the.only.ones. 

as in, on the planet.

"Mom-o, we use the fancy grater for the cheese?"

Whether we were or weren't...it was scrumptious. and the wee peeps dig it too.

 well, Critter does. Deb-ul basically likes to eat the bread alone.

A boy after my own heart really. Feel bad for him in advance. He most likely will be a beer lover I reckon.

Bread, Bikes, and Beers.

Gonna start adding some meals and recipes. I seem to like to read those on other blogs. I'll get better at the recipe part... For now there are photos:

Squash beats pasta almost any day.

Idaho Retreat

It's off and running.

Incredibly fabulous fresh start.

After a (holiday) week home alone with the wee peeps, I was due for some chillaxing. 

Cosmically, it all fell in to place, as it is cosmically wont to do.

My dear friend, Amrita, has a birthday coming up.

She said "Can you come over?"

I basically knocked on her door to reply "yes!"

I don't drink in January...not a resolution...just a break after the long holiday season.

She doesn't eat the first week in January - just drinks...juices and coffee.

We were primed for the perfect gathering.

I left my tribe on Saturday morning.

Had a lovely snowshoe hike up a fabulous mountain.

Drove over two mountain passes and arrived.

My car was packed with all sorts of winter adventure gear, a yoga mat, and my painting bag.

Afternoon Delight

Seriously?!? Who has one of these in their house??

Sure, let's have another

We made and drank juices.

We stretched.

We made the most delectable coffee drinks I can remember ever having.

We chatted.

We walked.

We painted.

We slept.

We snowboarded.

We drank more juice.

We drank more coffee.

We chatted more.

We stretched more.

I was rejuvenated.

There is a special spot on my right trapezius, where Devlin and Betty lurk.
 After 24 hours in Idaho, i cleared them outta there!

I wrung it all out.
I came home early - to the most endearing welcome ever registered.
It was enough.
