How have you been sleeping? Last night I could not settle down and really let myself sleep. I miss everyone so much. It’s the everyone about life that calms me down, that helps keep me grounded and I don’t have access to the everyone. I wish I was more of an introvert. I love connection so much. Connection is my thing, chicken wing. If you need connection, too, let me know! I’m teaching yoga on zoom. I’m having coffee chats on zoom. Let me know if you want to pop in, you are welcome.

Today was a fine day. Totally fine. And I will take fine. I wanted the kids to do less screens today, but how do you say no when one of their best friends wants to play video games with them. I can’t say no - they don’t get to be kids much during this weird fucking time. They don’t get to be with their friends in person, to be silly, to laugh, to play, to eat, to fart, to joke around. It’s breaking my heart. All the kids, all over the world. All of us. Period.

Stay in this present moment, people. Take a nice, deep belly breath. Fill up your belly. Fill up your lungs. Fill up all up and down your entire body and know that I love you. I am tired. I am all of the things that you are. We are all of the same things. And we do yoga because we need to, because it breathes life into all of our cells and neurons and muscles and tendons and heart and head. All of it. Every single bit of it.

I added ice cream (non-dairy) to my Fred Meyer order. And chocolate chips. And I would like to drink bourbon. And I would like to add marshmallows and graham crackers.
