An emotional rollercoaster, very full day. In the mid afternoon, as my energy was waning- my husband gently put his (good) hand on my shoulder and asked- "Did you do that thing you challenged yourself to do yet today? Why don't you go outside now while the baby is napping and enjoy the sunshine?"
Sun salutation #1 felt a little stiff. I totally lost my way through #2 and even almost fell over once. So for #3 I slowed the heck down, focused on my breathing and used the noises around me (the droning of a plane, the discussion of 2 crows, a far off siren) to help myself hold poses a little longer. Then I sank into shavasana and allowed the world to continue spinning without my mindful thoughts of it. Bliss.

Exploring the Universe
Today on Day 2 I went for a hike up to Griffith Observatory with my cousin - about an hour, total. We stopped halfway and actually went inside and looked at exhibits and watched the free show in the Leonard Nimoy Event Horizon Amphitheater. Then we went over to the farmer's market at the Gene Autry Museum and ate cucumbers and pita bread on the grass. Excellent Day.
Exercise, check. Water, halfway there and will definitely make it, and sparkcoach, check!
