If it's Friday, that can only mean one thing.....TGIF, as is my new custom.
I am trusting myself to walk into some uncomfortable-ish physical and emotional places right now. I'm pushing my boundaries in my yoga practice, something that is both scary and fun (please ignore my bruises from falling over from crow pose last night). I'm gradually opening my heart up to someone who I really do care about, trying to lean with (instead of fighting) the connection that we seem to have. He makes my world a richer, more amazing place; my hope is to revel in that.
I am grateful for the time and space I've had this week to work creatively. I know, calling my research "creative work" seems a little goofy, but it helps to alleviate the tedium that can come with analyzing data. Being able to just walk away at any point during the day to clear my head has been the truly wonderful part and is what has helped me to keep moving forward.
I am also grateful that this business with my right knee/ leg is "just" a bone bruise or stress fracture of my tibial plateau. Either way, the injury doesn't stand in the way of cycling in Bordeaux.
I am inspired by the crazy monsoons we've had all week. Granted, I've been crabby because I've been wanting to get out on my bike and the rainstorms have precluded that until today. But the rain.....I do love the rain. There's something healing about it, and I'm enjoying the lush green jungle-ness of my yard that isn't requiring irrigation.
Happy Friday!
