Yoga yesterday was very hard on my elderly body. Yoga was cancelled this morning – which might have saved my life. Went to the old airport for a little whale watching with my friend, Billy and then had breakfast. Billy went off to work at “Carlton’s Palace” and I logged 6 miles on the FitBit. (Hey, Carlton – you are the only one who would care about this – according to FitBit I walked 1,237 miles since mid-April when I got the gizmo.)

REAL Food. Yogurt for lunch – after eating a big breakfast. (couple of eggs, toast with butter and jelly, rice, bacon, fruit) Salad is on tap for dinner.

I think I have managed to get back into yoga after a 20 year yoga lapse. Decided this afternoon that I’ll try to put Zen meditation back in my life.  10 minutes was a long time to sit fixedly, thinking of not thinking. Why you might ask. Well, last year – the only time that I wasn’t worrying about Carlton was those few seconds when I was looking through the view finder of my camera. (Looking at the LCD screen don’t work – it had to be through the view finder.) I realized that those few seconds were a few seconds of pure “mindfulness”. Mindfulness is sort of meditation lite, I think.
