so, i am loving yoga. tonight is my third class, and its simply amazing. i feel such a connection with my body, which is something i have lost having my children. most of my moments through the day consist of living for someone other than me, that i enjoy the selfish moments of yoga. i am learning a lot about how important it is to pay attention to my breathing. how breathing deep and evenly is so healing. im looking forward to tonight to reconnect with myself, breathe deeply, and work my buns off. im still in awe of how i can be standing in one position, with all muscles engaged, and be working out so intesely, without moving. its amazing. if you have never tried yoga, i highly suggest it.
tonight is also night number 6 without my husband. im having a hard time with this... it is making my apprecitation for single mothers soar. he will be off work for two days, and then will be back to work for 6 more days. i prefer days, because sleeping alone in bed is something i dont think i will ever get used to. i lay there for hours, with this feeling of waiting....but nothing happens, no one comes home....and im up at 3am, trying to convince myself that sleep is so important, but its next to impossible.
i admire my husband so much. i am thankful for him. i am lucky that i get to share the rest of my life with him. i just wish he was here! but, even tho its cliche, absence does make the heart grow fonder. when he is home....my how much i celebrate him!
but, onto a few more loads of laundry, and then off to yoga. hopefully i will come home balanced and calm and connected so that i can sleep.
