Tired, but more relaxed.

Aug 06, 2007

I’m sitting in my office in a fall of sunlight. Just sitting here and typing and I can feel the stress letting go, my body relaxing. It’s good to be home.
I probably won’t work today. Jon and I are beat. It was lovely seeing everyone, and hopefully latter in the week I’ll talk about Nasfic and the people we met there, the things we did, but not today. Today I just wanted you guys to know we’re home, and safe. I’m not even going to try and write on the new book today. All work will be phone calls or e-mails that have accumulated through the last very busy two weeks. I’ll probably meditate and finally call that yoga instructor that my therapist recommended. I used what little yoga and stretching exercises I knew on Sunday in the hotel room and it helped, a lot. So, yoga it is.
If not today, then tomorrow I will call the martial arts studio for Jon and I. It’s time to find a way to exercise that doesn’t feel like boring punishment. I love the results of the weights, and frankly, I enjoy the repetition some days, but Jon does not. We may actually have to keep me on the weights and just add other stuff for him. Exercise is about finding what works for you.
I digress, stay on target, stay on target. Jon usually says that to me, but I’ve started actually saying it in my own head to help me focus. Ooh, shiny. Just kidding. Anyway, we’re home, I think later in the day we’re going to do something with our kiddo. We’ve missed her. Speaking of which I’m going over to the main part of the house to check and see if her father has dropped her off, yet. Talk to you guys tomorrow.
