Yoga With A Baby

Have you seen those videos of people doing yoga and their pets are climbing on them? It's funny right? Well, while my kitty did supervise, it was my daughter who climbed all over me. Still adorable and funny. She gets so excited when people are on the ground with her. She even has her own version of downward dog.

 She does this all the time and it cracks us up. There is never a dull moment with this little girl. Please excuse the messy living room, or not. I have two small children and most of the time I just don't care. Cleaning with small children around is like trying to dry your car off with a towel while it's raining. I have better things to do than keep my house looking like a better homes and gardens magazine. It's called living, playing with my kids, or being lazy. It's great.

Anyway, I'm really proud of myself for accomplishing the yoga this morning. I've reached my goal weight post baby, but looking at my body, I certainly don't look it, and the size of my clothes are not changing. Weird, right?
I HATE EXERCISE. But, I found that I do enjoy yoga. So, yoga it is. If only I could manage to do it on a regular basis, which I still can't. I am the queen of procrastination when it comes to exercising or anything on a regular, scheduled basis. It's amazing I manage to get anything done. If I somehow got my act together and was organized and efficient I think I could rule the world.

Don't worry, World. That is unlikely to happen. But I am trying. I've reorganized my files, gotten a planner to keep track of things I need to do on a day by day basis. I'm taking things one day at a time. Small goals and small steps work for me.

Today's goals are:
  • Yoga 
  • Blog post
  • Edits on Mine, All Mine *
  • Stay off The Debil (aka Facebook) until after 6pm.
*Mine, All Mine is the first book I ever wrote and as I prepare it for print I'm doing a little rewriting. Nothing major, just basics like my overuse of the word nearly and junk like that. I cringe when I read it and I don't want to feel that way. Every author has a first book that is rough around the edges. I've learned so much since I wrote that book that I just need to fix some errors and clean it up. It represents me and I want it to shine like it should. The e-book version will be updated once I'm finished, too.

Wish me luck with my goal list and I hope you have a happy Friday. Youtube Yoga With Adriene if you are interested in trying some yoga. She is really fun and quirky.
