SPANISH TALES

“Rothio, make sure Leah gets up,” Tara says.  “Leah you better get up.” Leah gets defensive, “I’ll get up, stop!  I’m only late to things that don’t matter.” It’s late & we are momentarily silent. We hold on tightly to the end of the night that smells of both fresh air & mosquito repellant. TheContinue reading “SPANISH TALES”

LESSONS FROM A TATTOO

It’s been a tradition to get tattooed every year since I got sober right around my sobriety date. I had to take some time off when I was pregnant & after I gave birth. Getting tattooed kind of falls by the wayside when you have a small baby. I was ready to get back intoContinue reading “LESSONS FROM A TATTOO”

FIVE DOLLAR TREASURE

H & I were making the rounds last week, shopping & purchasing supplies for our mini glamping trip & my upcoming trip to California. He relentlessly pelted me with entreaties for treats & toys. Whew, he knows how to push my buttons & wait for the right opportunity. I obviously don’t want to get inContinue reading “FIVE DOLLAR TREASURE”

BEST COAST

Some pictures from our recent visit to the Oregon coast: Nehalem Ecola State Park Indian Beach If you have a chance to go, I recommend exploring this area which is pretty direct west of Portland. The Oregon coast is very different than what I was formally used to in California. It’s rare to spot aContinue reading “BEST COAST”

THE WEIGHT OF THINGS

Ever since I can remember I’ve struggled with my conceptions of my physical appearance. I’ve been curvy since those hormones smashed into me at age 12 & I swear if I just side glance a carbohydrate of any sort, my pants hug me a little tighter. I joke around with my mom that there’s someContinue reading “THE WEIGHT OF THINGS”

BONDAGE OF SELF

Someone may see a glossy picture of me on social media & think that whatever day I had, it was a good one. That I’m doing just fine. I have a solid higher power, a supportive family, my son, a supportive AA family, & duh, yoga. All this stuff is very true (& more) &Continue reading “BONDAGE OF SELF”

BUSY HAPPY

Whew, it’s been a while since I’ve posted. H & I traveled to Florida at the very beginning of March & I feel like right after we got on that plane at PDX I blinked & now it’s past Easter. My yoga teaching has ramped up, swerved, & morphed into something new. I’ve been subbingContinue reading “BUSY HAPPY”

CALL BACK

Most of the time I filter what I say. I pause & think before speaking. Let’s face it, there’s a level of annoyance with an over sharer in meetings or a teacher in a yoga class. Not to say that we shouldn’t overshare, save your ass not your face, & let it out if needsContinue reading “CALL BACK”

OLD & NEW

H & I had a really good set of holidays this past (past already, gasp) year.  Usually I want to go on big adventures to other states to see my family, which is always amazing too, but this time I really didn’t want to go anywhere.  I wanted to stay home.  My aunt and uncleContinue reading “OLD & NEW”

YOGA BIRD

This time two years ago I was showing up several times a week to a storefront out in Milwaukie (Oregon) filled with impressive looking Pilates equipment just hoping that someone would show up for yoga.  It was my first official gig as a yoga instructor, besides this I had offered some free outdoor yoga andContinue reading “YOGA BIRD”
