Lazy Crazy Lucy Lu


Here's a recent pic of your fuzzy west coast neice! This is her new favoriate blanket, fuzzy green and yellow. 

Karen and I went walking on the Grahm Trail at Redwood with Lucy and Stella and she had a ball. I love seeing her so happy. It makes me feel like all is right in the world. I think walking with Lucy is my form of meditation, a walking meditation, if you will. I often find myself counting steps (yes, it's a little wierd) or listening to my huffing and puffing as a focus point. 

Maybe my part of the 28 day challenge could be to make 10 minutes of a walk with Lucy a conscious meditation. Or another challenge for me would be to actually attend a yoga class soon, something I've wanted to get back into and can't seem to get myself there. Who knows why.

Challenge: I will try to do a form of moving meditation 3x week, either with Lucy or at a yoga class for 2 weeks. I think I can commit to that, start small and work my way upwards. I'll start on Monday January 11, 2010.

  2. Slow and Steady Ali, that's my name!! So what do you think for you? Are you doing that 28 day challenge? I went to her web site and looks like it's already going strong.

    I really like the idea of trying something and then writing reflections about it. It's like our Daily Q's from way back when, eh?
