deciding perfect entrance into the waterI forgot how European radio stations go from Enya, to some spanish song, to britney, to enrique. it is either the best mix or the worst. im going for the latter.

i have now decided i will go camping... days.
every morning i lead three of the guys and soemtimes bo for an hour of yoga. the new guy steve, a builder from scotland with tattos all over his arms, going through a midlife reflection, is enthusiastic about trying everything. i thought we would sleep in today, but he woke me up at 8 ready for yoga.by the end of the hour all of them are huffing and sweaty, shocked by how hard it is. it has been great though to have them make me commitment to the practice.
i am still struggling to fully let myself relax here. i am having doubts about commmitting. trying ot sort out if i really want to be here versus also just letting it be. the junk, disorganization, and food here however, are getting in the way. my emotions keep swinging back and forth. yoga and painintg in the afternoons have been keeping me sane.
