Re post from Bottoms as LISer's rarely travel all the way there... usually one thread apart .

Need food!

Then rest my sore yoga body .

Teaching in the morning.Hopefully our contractor meets us around 1pm tomorrow afternoon and gives us some good numbers. The boss dude quit on us before even starting the job but Mexican Dude wants to take it anyway so he's supposed to give us 2 numbers... one all inclusive... one with labor only and we pay materials. I really want that upstairs space converted to usable living space. A place away from the kids but still here .We like MD's work anyway. Boss dude was somewhat blind and very messy with the grout and painting. MD is the craftsman. Crossing fingers that I can start planning another bathroom and picking out a bamboo floor. Update tomorrow.
Good night LISer's .

Listening to speaker tapes since I didn't get to a meeting tonight. Still feeling crappy but I do remember feeling crappy and messed up and grateful I'm not there today. Been on the phone with my sponsor and a friend in program, really reaching out because I am feeling so crummy. No thoughts of using, its really not even an option today, but really feeling out of sorts since I didn't make a meeting. Also reading from my little red book the first 164 pages of the BB.

Sorry I missed you Rusty, how's your throat feeling hon?

Good night Lis, Gyp and Dee.

Good night Believe. I hope you start feeling better soon. You're on antibiotics? They should start to kick in within a day or two I would think. Rest, fluids...reading your BB and calling a sponsor or friend seems like a good option to get you through while you're not feeling well.

Too tired to cook anything spectacular so just eating some McCann's oatmeal. Warm filling and somewhat healthy if you over look the pat of butter, 1/2 and 1/2 and ton of sugar I sprinkled on top. It is so comforting... I'm taking it to bed and watching some TV or perhaps reading a few quotes from . It's a very inspiring book and very handy for a quick burst of spirituality.Useful too for quoting during a yoga class .


Love is the cure



Love is the cure,
for your pain will keep giving birth to more pain
until your eyes constantly exhale love
as effortlessly as your body yields its scent.” ~ Rumi

Aw Bee, I'm sorry you're feeling so crap. I'm glad you are reaching out, though. Keep getting lots of rest, okay? Your body obviously needs it.

One more:


Are you looking for me?

Are you looking for me? I am in the next seat.
My shoulder is against yours.
you will not find me in the stupas, not in Indian shrine
rooms, nor in synagogues, nor in cathedrals:
not in masses, nor kirtans, not in legs winding
around your own neck, nor in eating nothing but
vegetables.

When you really look for me, you will see me
instantly --
you will find me in the tiniest house of time.

Kabir says: Student, tell me, what is God?
He is the breath inside the breath.

- Kabir

It is RoRo. It's a sweet book of collections of quotes by Rumi, Kabir, St. Francis of Assisi, St. Teresa,Hafiz, Meister Ekhart and 5 others. Eastern and Western. Not always about God but very comforting to read as you can pick it up and just read one or many. I like to just open the book and read what has fallen open choosing to believe it was meant for me to read at that particular time.I'm sure you can pick it up used off Amazon for a reasonable price. New was only $11.56... saw a used one for $6.25.

O Love, O pure deep Love, be here, be now,
Be all – worlds dissolve into your
stainless endless radiance,
Frail living leaves burn with your brighter
than cold stares –
Make me your servant, your breath, your core.

~Rumi

Aiming for making the 7:10 power at the gym... then heading to teach my own power at a small studio. Hopefully I wake early enough to shower and leave here by 6:30am. This instructor is a master Baron Baptiste teacher and kicks ass! I need a good class like that to kick start this upcoming holiday week of frenzied cooking along with teaching and kid stuff.

I should be moseying along now... fo shizzle!

Night all .
