Well, I practiced today. And I have TC class tonight (for an extra star :) )
This morning was slower paced than yesterday's and with more time between my arising and the waking of the rest of my family. Nice.
TC practice happened about noon. Felt distracted so I just worked a few moves in the middle, mostly. Looking forward to going to class later. The light on the drive out will be splendid.
Yesterday - Day 11
I woke early enough to start the coffee, feed the cats, ablutions, etc. and still have more than enough time to take time with the meditation. I read from 365 Tao, stretched a little, spent 20 nice minutes breathing and listening and watching my mind bounce around.
I could use a different POV on those thoughts/music. And I'm also (repeatedly) relaxing into the process of this 100 Days, rather than measuring changes I can't see.
But from the moment that Family awakened, the day just escaped from my control. One of the dogs (I know who) peed through the whole bedding down to the mattress pad. That's a big load of obstacle in the road on a Karaoke morning! Had planned on doing regular laundry anyway, so just took longer. Within all that, I kept letting the chores run the day. That, and my Ego which pushes for a different level of 'picking up the house' since people are coming over.
( I must say, that Karaoke Clean-up day is making normal maintenance easier.)
I thought of TC all day. I consciously put a shower first; taking out the trash first; walking the dog; making breakfast; laundry...everything ahead of the practice.
And by the time everyone left and we cleared up, it was already today...you know, the next day.
I'm choosing to take yesterday's repeatedly relaxing into the process as a sign of progress toward a greater connection.
And now, after writing this, I feel better about how yesterday went. Interesting...
