I feel like this blog has been all kids all the time for the past few months. I really do things and think about things that aren’t child related. Really. I swear. So why then, when I want to write about something that’s not a monthly update (and holy shit the baby is five months old tomorrow) do I draw a blank?
What have I been doing?
I’ve made it back to the gym for real. The Fiendling and the baby have both been great in the babysitting room so I’ve been taking advantage of it three days a week. It’s like free babysitting for the low, low price of $56 a month. And I can take an uninterrupted shower.
I’ve also gone back to yoga. I’m stunned by how easily my body remembers how to do the asanas. It’s easier than riding a bike. I’ve been going to a yoga class on Thursday nights. I like the class but I hate that the instructor makes all share something at the beginning before the opening meditation. When Isaac first got diagnosed I wanted to keep it to myself but I ended up spilling it all over the place and sobbing. She did a lot of heart opening asanas that night and when I left I felt better. The following week I shared that Isaac had died and cried some more. During the opening meditation the instructor rubbed my back and shoulders. It was nice. Then during final relaxation she put her hands on my back. I felt warmth then a release. Tears streamed down my face but I wasn’t crying like I had been. I realized at some point that she was doing (is that the verb?) Reiki and holy shit that works. I’ve felt better about Isaac since then.
I’ve spent a decent amount of time on the Facebook. It’s fun catching up with old friends especially when you don’t know who the hell half of them are. My best friend from high school and I keep messaging each other trying to figure out who the fuck half of these people are and why they think we were ever friends with them. It sure does make me feel popular though.
There’s more. Perhaps one of these days I’ll get around to actually writing about instead of thinking about writing about it.
