Counting Sheep





Let’s admit it, life isn’t all sunshine and roses especially if you are having difficulty sleeping.  Last night was one of those nights for me.  I am never sure what causes my inability to sleep but it can be elusive at times.

A while ago I was looking for some self-help and stumbled upon a free website called Do Yoga with Me.com.  While there I found an amazing gift to my sleep, Yoga Nidra by Jennifer Piercy.  The Yoga Nidra is a short 22-minute practice for sleep meditation.  Her calming voice guides the listener to a place where sleep can be induced naturally.

If you find yourself struggling with sleep, try Yoga Nidra or enjoy any other offerings this fabulous website has to offer.

SkeeBall Anyone?

Last night Bill and I had a great time watching the Auburn Tigers move to Elite 8 status in the March Madness contest.  While watching the Auburn players effortlessly shoot  3 pointers I was reminded of years of playing SkeeBall at Rehoboth Beach, DE.  As a child, during my college days, in our dating life and as a Mom, I have always been the family reigning SkeeBall champion.  I would stand at the SkeeBall throw line and effortlessly sink one winner in after another.  Like the Tigers, the joy and elation were obvious.  Each 50 point shot gave me more inspiration and more confidence. Winning at sports games and routinely beating my brothers, Bill and my sons helped to define who I am.  I have always been an athletic person who loves a good challenge both on and off the court. Last night, the Tar Heels were outplayed by the Tigers but in the defining moment when the high scoring Auburn player Okeke was severely injured the Tar Heels remind...

Second Saturday

Ten years ago, over coffee, my dearest friend Sande and I began discussing how our monthly Bunko game with girlfriends had seemed to have run its course.  Don’t get me wrong, I loved getting together and getting away from my family routine on a Friday.  However, I felt that my life had taken a turn and I was looking for ways to go out with my husband and all our friends. Over coffee, we crafted an idea of what would become the Second Saturday Social Club.  The original idea included 9 couples, one couple has since moved away.  The idea was that once a month you and your husband planned an outing and shared the idea with the social club.  At best you would have 8 other couples join you and at worst you and your husband would have a date.  It seemed like a win/win scenario. We were careful to explain that the social event could be easy as going to a restaurant or as complicated as hosting a dinner party or cocktail hour. Over the years the Second S...

Gloria

Hoy quiero escribir sobre Gloria Anzaldúa.   Un poeta, una feminista y un erudito. Hoy leí una cita de ella que nunca antes había notado escrita en una pared en mi trabajo. Esta noche encontré una poema que toca mi alma. Gloria escribió que el lenguaje es una frontera para todos. Una frontera que todos debemos cruzar para definir quiénes somos. Los libros salvaron mi cordura, el conocimiento me abrió lugares que había cerrado y me enseñó primero a sobrevivir y luego a cómo volar.
