Inhale, Exhale, Inhale, Exhale and repeat........



The countdown to Paradise is on......19 days and every day goes faster and faster. 


I am slowly checking things off my list one by one.  My flight is confirmed, travel insurance purchased, house rented and yesterday I completed the last major item of selling my car. 

I am 8 days from my final day at work and even things here are winding down as the properties I manage slowly transition to their new managers.

All this is giving me a lot of time to think and plan and obsess but it is so much more difficult because I am not sure what to expect.  The anxiety and fear of the unknown is setting in and as it does I focus on breathing and being present.......om

I went to my last aerial yoga class on Monday and I hope to find a class in Nicaragua I can take as well.  Today I will go to Maha Pura Yoga for one last class and some goodbyes. 

I hope once I get settled everyone can come visit and take in some classes on the beach in my new paradise.

Week 2: Monday-Thursday

Day 5:  NO spending day.  It was a quiet Monday. Day 6:  I spent approx $6.00 to fill a prescription. I should probably update you on another goal I had for this year.  I have been trying to make it to the gym twice a week since January.  It doesn't seem like a big goal but some weeks it is tough. Truthfully I haven't made it even once in the last  two weeks but I got back on track today with a bootcamp class at the YMCA I go to.  Although I am not noticing much difference in my weight or how I look I have noticed a substantial difference in how I feel......GREAT!  I am also hoping it will translate into an improved softball season. I may never be in the shape I was at 20 again but I can certainly try and be closer than I am now. Today was also lunch date day.....my coworker brought pulled pork sandwiches with carrot stick and cherry tomatoes.  She also made chocolate peanut butter squares....ummm delicious.  I will have to get that ...

My Cup O Tea

Over the years I have become a fan of tea.  My favourites are non-caffeine.  Green Teas, herbal teas and rooibus.  Almost any loose leaf tea will do.  I once got chamomile tea from a friends parents and it was really just a whole baggie of chamomile flowers.....it was from a place in Sarnia, Ontario but I am not sure exactly where.  It just seems so much fresher when you can recognize it by sight.... In June while on vacation I found a tea store selling hand tied leaves.  What a fantastic aroma of jasmine.  It is the Madame Butterfly tea by Capital Teas (www.capitalteas.com).  It was very expensive and I just couldn't afford it but they certainly had lots of great teas. My most recent vacation in Florida found me in the Spice and Tea Exchange (www.spiceandtea.com) where I purchased a small bag of loose leaf hazelnut cookie tea.  Ceylon black base so not my usual herbal but wonderful smell and tastes very rich.  An enjoyable tea....
