Tea and Sunshine

A busy weekend with events and nature.  I volunteered at the Hoot and Howl event on Saturday night, where recordings of owl and coyote sounds were made in an effort to get them to respond.  No luck, but a wonderful presentation by TRCA teacher Alex, along with goodies and fellowship made the night a success!

Activity:  Yoga.  I've been practising yoga regularly for a few years now at the Balanced Life studio in Ajax.  I really like how strong and flexible I'm becoming and how my mind is calmer and more peaceful.

Everyday Things:  Sunshine.  It amazing how good a sunny day feels after a stretch of bitterly cold wintry weather.  To see the icy cover of our driveway slowly melt into puddles is such a lift!

Plant:  The Peace Lily.  It's one of my favourite indoor plants with its long, glossy dark green leaves and graceful steps with white flowers.  It's great at purifying the air, and one advantage to caring for a peace lily is that it gets a bit droopy when dry, thus sending out a notice when it needs water.

Food:  Tea.  I received a lovely collection of tea samples from my sweetheart and I've been making a cup of tea a day.  It's soothing and invigorating at the same time.

People:  Speaking of my S/O, I'm grateful every day that we are part of each other's lives.
