It’s Officially Summer
We’ve been taking a beating with this heat! I’ll never complain about mud on the farm again . . . maybe. This break from the triple-digit weather feels like a traditional Colorado June and makes for much better sleeping. I hope you all are finding ways to beat the heat and enjoy the outdoors if that’s your thing. If you are all Netflix and chill, let me know and I’ll share what I’m watching! Thanks to all of you who are supporting me on Patreon. I love doing yoga with you in separate spaces. Next year, I hope we’ll be able to offer some in-person specials on the new foundation…
What Do You DO out there?!
originally posted June 10, 2021 Today was crazy. It was overcast and 75 degrees, so relief from this blazing heat, but it was SIXTY-FIVE percent humidity! We live in the high desert. It’s not supposed to be that bloody humid! Though after a walk with the Beard and the dogs, I hopped on the tractor to mow in the relative cool and start day one of what was a three-day chore . . . mowing. We mow around the house and I tackle a walking path that runs the perimeter of our acreage. It measures almost two miles, as Google tracks, of trail. Our landscape designer recommended a six-foot-wide swath…

This particular launch is only a twenty-minute drive, so OF COURSE, WE’RE GOING TO WATCH PEOPLE LIGHT STUFF ON FIRE. We went on Easter Sunday and, frankly, were surprised how much fun it is even when you are not a rocketeer. Saturday’s launch was jam-packed with some heavy-hitting rockets. Jack and his wife are some of our favorite people. So, I offered some recordings, and we booked out to the grasslands. Two things of note: the weather in April was cloudy and…
Happy June, People!
I’ve hit a wall. Yes, I’m trying to find joy in the little things. And I am. Coffee on the east porch. Watching the storms roll by. Taking the brush hog to the farm. How fucking good I feel after yoga! All of those things are satisfying, and yet I can’t shake the Blahs. An article in the New York Times calls it, “languishing. The sense of stagnation and emptiness.” A response to the last year our brains have been on high alert. Politics. Social change. Pandemic. We have basically been in fight or flight mode, I’ll argue since 2016, but definitely since last March. Languishing is the absence of…
Class Schedule
Want to be sure to hit a class LIVE? I’m still working on how to integrate a calendar into the Patreon site, but for now this will have to do! I know the posts here have basically eliminated the need for an extra website, but I have to move slowly on the tech side. My tech guy has a full-time job, sheesh!
