I think I've been resisting writing about this subject because truthfully, I don't want to change up my current routine even though I'm often frustrated by it. That said, I'm just going to put it all out there. . .
I'm going to go to bed by 11:00 every night and going to wake up by 7:00 every morning. The ultimate goal is 10pm and 6am, but we'll start with some flexibility.
Secondly, Ayurveda has been on my mind a lot lately. I really want to live an ayurvedic lifestyle and I've been good about getting it going, just not so great at keeping it going. That's a pretty typical pattern for me, so alas, its something to transform. Weekend brunch is my biggest weakness, and this weekend was no exception. Tonight I did pretty good though. I finally broke out the bok choy and arugula (my favorite) + figs and peaches and heirloom tomatos. Tasty.
Mondays call for strength training and some hip hop class I haven't yet been to. I think dancing is extra good for me though. I'm going back to Wednesday night yoga, which means homework must get done on Tuesdays, after classes and before zumba. Then on weekends there's about four different yoga classes I want to go to. PLUS, I think I'm just going to tough it up and ride my bike to school everyday. That's a whole lot of physical activity, but things tend to be all or nothing with me. And its about time. I think if I don't kick my own ass right now, winter is going to be extra hard.
Finally, I hereby swear to the blog world that within the next week the following will be complete:
-Etsy store(s) will be up and running again. There's no good excuse for them not to be except photographing items, and I happen to like photography. I guess I forget this when its logiscial projects.
-Finish setting up my iStock account.
-Jami's logo/website
-The last three photos for Nate's wall
-Memorize my lines for Long Day's Journey Into Night
-Set up Facebook page
-Make a second committment board
-Paint my chairs
-Watch Dracula
-See at least one play a week. This week it will be The Caretaker.
-Brush up on my Shakespeare. I'm starting with Titus Andronicus.
In the next few weeks. . .
-Paint my kitchen
-Register for The Art Weekend
-Attempt my salt flats film project
-Photo shoot with Erica and Turquoise Lovely
-Update my entire Flickr presence
Whew! That's probably good for now. There is so much I want to do and yet I often get caught in these ruts where I don't feel inspired, just surviving it. I think the trick for me is to just keep recreating over and over again. I suppose its silly to think possibility will survive over time on its own. I know better than that.
And for the sake of this post not being ALL boring writing. . .
I heart Edith Piaf : )
Add La Môme to the list.
And now its 11:20. This is how it happens!
