Swell
Practice after work yesterday was, well, to be completely honest, it was incredible!
Not incredible like I suddenly busted out full second series without ever trying before, or anything. No, that would be more along the lines of miraculous.
Incredible. Yes. After three days off for the LH I needed to be back on my mat. I thought about it all day. Got home. Chilled out for a little while. Unrolled the mat. And off I went. A's, B's, standing, seated...whoa, I'm at supta kurmasana already? How did that happen?
It felt light and effortless. It was so straightforward. No frills. Just simple and strong.
Usually what happens is that at some point during the janu sirsanas I start thinking, "Ugh, so much more to do and not enough energy." Maybe it was the three days off, but yesterday there was none of that. Did all the poses, even the one I hate more than...anything. I stopped at supta kurmasana, but I'm not sure why...could have kept going and finished out primary.
It was the first time in awhile that I didn't have any time constraints. Usually I have to leave work, rush home, roll out mat and practise before The Guy gets home (otherwise major distractions come into play). But, last night he was prepping for a trial and was at the office until about 10, so I had all the time in the world. Lovely.

This is the first weekend in about six weeks that we have absolutely no plans! I'm not sure what to do with myself. I'm trying to decide whether early November is too early to start shopping for Christmas decorations. Ohhhh...maybe a trip to the Saturday morning farmer's market would be nice. Yes, I think that would be swell.
