My Yoga Space and Artisan Market

I thought I would take a photo of the beautiful terrazzo at Hotelito Dulce Mareas where I teach a Wednesday morning all levels class of yoga.  It's another gorgeous day in paradise.  We're waiting for you......please join me for a class!!!!!

This is the exciting portion......my property in Las Penitas, Leon, Nicaragua.  This is soon to be the home of On A Whim!.  I am looking forward to teaching yoga and doing Thai yoga massage in this space but more than that it is going to be an artisans market, where artisans can rent a space on Saturday and Sunday to sell leather products jewelry, wood carvings, pottery and other items that are hand crafted here in Nicaragua.  We will also be offering a few services.  I am in the midst of finding vendors so if you know someone looking to rent a space please give them my information.

How do I stop everyday life from stopping me.  By the time I get home from work, make dinner and do all the things I have to do which now also include a college course and a volunteer position I have no time for the things I set out to do at the beginning of the year.  I do not know where I could possibly squeeze in another hour or so....I am already exhausted.  I had mistakenly thought that when I sold my house and no longer had that maintenance to look after I would have more time...nope not so.  Okay so I got a job that I only work 35 hours a week and get off at 2:30 on Fridays and I could use that time....nope....now it just gets used for errands most times.... I keep asking myself this q...
