Too afraid to know.

There’s something I haven’t mentioned, because I’ve been too sad and afraid to even say the words.
My mum and my stepdad were away for the weekend. When they got home on Tuesday night I saw them and immediately knew something was wrong. My stepdad isn’t well. The symptoms appeared suddenly while they [...]

Sore body, calm mind

As much as I wanted to do nothing more than get in my car and drive home last night when I got into the train station aroung 6:30, I used every ounce of will power I have to kill some time and go to the 7:30 intermediate class at Katie’s shala.I stopped at the grocery [...]

Fallen

All of the sudden the “ifs” have become “whens.” The apartment that was his has become ours (if only in name). I say, “I don’t want to go,” and he replies, “I don’t want you to go either. That’s why I want you to move in.”

I’m so desperately frightened of those people who say, “University was the best time of my life.” I find the thought thoroughly depressing. Not because I didn’t have a [...]

The crazy yogi in the office next to me….

Oh boff! A few of my co-workers just asked me to come for cake (there’s a little in-office celebration) and the only way out of it was to tell them the truth: that I’m not eating sugar right now. Great. Now they know that I’m a crazy yogi through and through. [...]

When the cat’s away…

My boss is away and thus I have very little to do. And by very little, I mean very little.

Long weekends, good….Going back to work, bad

What a chillled out Canada Day long weekend that was. Spent it at the cottage with my family and The Guy. My parents finally caved and decided that The Guy and I are both allowed to sleep in my bedroom, and, *gasp*, we’re even allowed to close the door! This is something [...]
