currently | v3.


Reading // Light on Life by B.K.S. Iyengar.  I am absolutely in love with this book.  One of my mini goals for the month was to read a yoga-related book, and this one really fit the bill.  It's full of wisdom and is giving me a deeper understanding of the impact of yoga practice.  Iyengar has really sparked my need to want to know more about yoga and how it can change you.  I checked it out from the library, but I've already dog-earred so many pages I know I'm going to have to buy it!
Watching // The Killing.  Thanks to one of my besties, I'm obsessed with this show as well as Joel Kinnaman.  I keep telling D that it's a more fast-paced version of True Detective (although it came out before it) which I'm also into after four episodes.
Thinking //  About my leg.  Constantly.  Between the snow days and some "growing pains" (extreme tightness) in my bad leg, I haven't been running much within the past couple of weeks.  I experimented with some trigger point dry needling on Monday and am constantly trying to gauge whether my leg is ready to run again.
Eating/Drinking // Trying to refocus on an 80/20 balance.  With Valentines presents from school and girl scout cookie season, it's been tough for me to get back on track.  I'm working hard to cook and prep as much as possible.
Working //  Getting back into the routine.  Seven snow days within three weeks has completely thrown me for a loop.  I'm really slowly trying to work back up to my daily week day 5am wake-up calls!
Obsessing // Prepping for our Spain trip in May!  There's a few items I think I'll "need" before we head over, and I'm on the hunt to find them!  
Hating // This super slow week.  I thought all day Tuesday that it was Wednesday.  My kids at school have been a little hyped up.  And to be honest, I'm just antsy for the weekend in hopes that I'll be able to complete a long run (fingers crossed)!
Loving // Time slowly changing.  This time of the year I get to see the most gorgeous skies with the Raleigh skyline on my way home.  Pink, purple, and blue skies.  It makes me savor the red lights, instead of rushing through them, just to have extra time with the sky.

I love this time of year when the time slowly changes forward too. The sunsets have been unreal lately!

This week has been extremely long. Ugh. And I'm sorry about your leg girl! Take it slow; you got this!

Ahhhh, the light changing is making my heart happy, too. A little more daylight always helps.
I haven't read Light on Life, but I would love to. I really like Ram Dass. If you haven't read his work, he has a new book out called Polishing the Mirror that is on my Amazon wish list.

The daylight change has been so amazing! Coming home when it's still relatively light out is such a mood booster! I LOVE True Detective. EEK so interested to see how it ends!
