||WEEKEND OVER, TWO DAYS TO GO ||

The idea that I'll be sleeping in my own bed tomorrow night hasn't quite registered. That along with seeing my baby dog, Dellie, and her fuzzy best friend, Amore. Can't wait. Finals today and tomorrow will surely put me in my place, but I'm ready. Like a monkey with his banana, I'm ready for anything.

How was your weekend? Anything exciting? What are you looking forward to this week?

||GRATITUDE||

I am grateful for a friend who never passes judgement.

I am grateful for snacking until dinner and ruining my appetite.

I am grateful for studying, for it serves as a reminder to all that I have learned.

I am grateful for forgiving myself sleeping in; my body was tired and knew I needed rest.

I am grateful for laughter when stress and exhaustion set in for the long haul.

I am grateful for new television shows that keep things in perspective.

I am grateful for love.

I am grateful for light.

I am grateful for life.

What are you grateful for?

I only have a moment here --

trying not to stress, just sending love and good vibes to the universe.

I love each and everyone one of you.

|| 5 Things I am Grateful for Today ||

The immense love of my Kula -- how blessed I am to have them surrounding me. Officially a Registered Yoga Teacher! Wow!

Free flowing water -- I will never take water so freely given for granted.

Friends who care and make bumping into them all the more fun.

A mom who even when exhausted sends more love and hope than any other person on the planet.

Manifestation -- because I was just wishing for something and a link popped up on my sidebar for my exact wish.

Monday Already ||

Did anyone else's weekend go by at the speed of light? I swear, it needs to be a mandatory thing that we add another day, or five, to the weekend. Who's with me? Do we really think this four day work week will actually take root? What am I saying, I have perfectly comfortable plans to be surrounded by work but have it feel like love all the time... though only having to work four days out of the week would be awesome. Those European countries know what's up.

If you haven't tried the coconut circles, get moving! Nah, do what you want, but really they are delicious : -). If you want to learn an intense amount of knowledge about coconut, feel free to check this amazing food out.  I'm about to add it to the mainbar if you're not wanting to expend energy on clicking... hey, we conserve where we can, am I right?

Okay, now I'm just being ridiculous ; -) . Oops almost spilled my water on the computer... time to be grateful and then get off the computer. Have a beautiful, wonderful, very good Monday.

How was everyone's weekend? Any news to share?

GRATITUDE||

I am grateful to be alive. I am grateful to have all of my limbs in working order. I am grateful to be surrounded by all those I love. I am grateful for the inspirations those loved ones extend. I am grateful for water, for I know it is a limited resource yet is so readily available for my use. I am grateful for my brain, a far more important muscle than my ego allows. I am grateful for hope and wonder and the stars above that make me feel safe.

Clearly it's a sappy Monday. Really, I'm grateful for all of the above, yes, but mostly my pillow and Once Upon a Time, without which I don't believe I would have survived the weekend.

What are you grateful for?
