please allow me to whore myself out for a moment --
Hey guys! I know I have been talking about this a lot lately, but if maybe I could talk you in to donating to my run, now would be the time. The first 10 people to raise 500 bucks in the next week will receive an additional 500 towards their race from a company! I so want to win this. If you are thinking about donating, and remember - it is tax deductible -- now would absolutely be the time. Check out my site : meaghansrun.net Thank you my little love bunnies!!!!

Had a nice time with Wyatt. I become very charmed when he wants to do butterfly kisses in the middle of a party. It can all get to be a bit overwhelming at times, but there is certainly lots of sweetness. Current Mood: sleepy | | Friday, August 28th, 2009 | | 4:55 pm |
I am trying to work on my page for the race and the text appears to be a big blob...trying to work on this, but it seems that anything I do while making the page does not change this. Anyway - hope you check(ed) it out --- Let me know what you think!!!! http://www.active.com/donate/lv09michigan/lasvegas09MDeGrav | | 2:23 pm |

This just in -
Spoke with the lady about the check and she said there is more than enough money in her account and her bank told her to tell me to tell my bank to run it again. Weird. And still not settled until I can go to the bank tomorrow and see how this plays out.....does this make sense to anyone? | | Monday, August 3rd, 2009 | | 10:38 am |

Writer's Block: Parental Involvement
Yes. Sometimes too close with my mom. Where all of a sudden I feel weird and say "no one my age talks to their mom this much!' but when we don't talk, I don't feel right. We have always been super close. My dad. He is my friend and I am as close as I could get to him, I guess. He is kinda a distant guy and shows affection in strange ways. Sending me strange emails or making me weird food when I am at their house. He is overall, a weird guy, but we are friends. | | Thursday, July 23rd, 2009 | | 8:01 am |
About to go teach my first water aerobics class. I wasn't supposed to start until next week, but my boss called me in a panic and here I go! Fake it until ya make it! Current Mood: excited | | Tuesday, July 21st, 2009 | | 7:44 am |
Sleepy. The alarm went off before 5. I am house sitting and had to teach a class at 6am. Wanted to feed the dogs and make sure I had enough time to drive there. Now I am home for a few minutes to let Nico out, return to the house sitting dogs to give them a good walk and I have to go to a water aerobics class to learn the format...can I just say how much I do not feel like being in a bathing suit right now and acting perky? I hardly slept b/c wake up felt so close that sleep was tough to come by. After the water class I have to zoom over to another LA Fitness to teach my Tuesday class. It takes so much to do the class with them. I rather talk them through and give massages, then dream up the next few poses with my shirt flipping over my head and attempting to control my breathing as I sweat and everyone stares. Not the most fun ever. But, also, incredibly rewarding. The lady I house sit for always puts the satin pillows on the bed. This is totally appreciated.

I am becoming so absorbed in all of this yoganess and it is pretty great. A little overwhelming how much is coming from it when I have only been at for such a short time! But, in a super positive way. I had a private this morning for a couple at 6:30am and it was absolutely amazing! Beautiful. They were super open and receptive and paid for a full month! Tonight I have a few more privates and another couple that was a bit awkward to teach last week, but hopefully this time things will go a lot smoother. It's pretty amazing how much one can get done when waking up at 5am! Ha! Already taught and then drove to take a class, took Nico on a long walk and put together a play list for a class tonight and now I have a huge cup of tea and am contemplating how to spend the next few hours. Somehow, on July 1st - the day my rent is due - I am making my rent money almost on the nose. Pretty excited about all of this. Current Mood: happy | | Friday, June 26th, 2009 | | 12:04 pm |

tired.
Yesterday was hazy and intense. I can't shake my cousin, of course. Can not stop thinking about her, the loss of her best friend, and I can't even imagine how she feels right now. I feel so thankful that she is physically ok. Time will tell with her mind/emotions...Justin and I had a big talk about if people could get past something like that. I can not believe what she went through. Also, we had the doctor's appt. for Justin yesterday. Finally! We have been holding our breath for weeks now. I guess his cells look alright and he does not recommend surgery. This is great news. It was almost too good of news and we were slow to react b/c we have been anticipating so much. They want to try some experimental stuff. We will see. Also, in the middle of the day. All of a sudden I realized what day it was. The anniversary of my little brother's death. How could this not be on my mind before? I miss him. Want to lay my head on his chest. You know, b/c he couldn't talk, I wouldn't often tell him my secrets. I put it out into the universe, but knew that no one else would be allowed to hold on to them besides us. I had a private yoga session for an older couple that I have never met before. Of course I remembered about my brother before I went to their home and it was making me feel kinda off and then it didn't help that these people seemed off as well. The woman seemed bored at times and they didn't like to hold poses or moving stuff seemed to hard. It was really stressful! Current Mood: listless | | Thursday, June 11th, 2009 | | 7:43 am |
Yesterday I taught three yoga classes. I was totally beat and kinda felt my classes got a little worse each time. Which makes sense b/c the first was with a guy who I am really comfortable with and had everything map'd out. The second was my feedback at Karma with 3 VERY seasoned teachers and a friend that comes to my classes. NERVOUS!! I didn't do my absolute best b/c of my nerves...actually, one of the teachers had to leave early so she emailed me her feedback last night : hi, you did a great job. thanks for the practice. i very much needed it. it's one of the best initial feedbacks i've participated in. i have a few suggestions/comments. 1. i'm wondering if it's a karma 1 flow. if so, i'd suggest a lunge w/knee on the floor before moving into crescent warrior, which is difficult for balance and for the hip flexor stretch. 2. having said that, i also felt that, in light of the somewhat strenuous nature of the standing sequence, the floor section was a little slow and the transition abrupt. i wasn't adequately prepared---either physically or psychologically---for crescent warrior or the transition from there to warrior 2, which is also tricky. 3. you set the stage nicely and your voice, overall, exhibited confidence. the class was nicely paced. every now and again though, your voice became tentative and a little flat. i'm not sure if you were nervous, but you seemed to fade away from owning your presence. this is pretty normal for beginning teachers and you did it far less than many. .. just a little but it was there. 4. you covered 5 of the 6 movements of the spine. . .i don't remember a backbend. . .which-for an overall practice--probably should be included. 5. you've got a calm and peaceful presence and i liked your music. 6. remember not to rely on the pose names because beginners won't know what you're talking about. cue body parts and tell your students where they should be/what they should be doing with the. 7. in eagle arms, especially the direction was unclear. simply crossing one arm over the other doesn't automatically bring a bend. i think that's all. congratulations!!!! SO happy it is behind me! It is so vulnerable being a yoga teacher. The third class was at LA Fitness of a teacher everyone LOVES. So, we all know how that goes. A bunch of strangers staring at you and wishing you were someone else. Anyway, it went alright and they liked my music and some people told the front desk they enjoyed the class. In the middle of teaching, I realized how bad I stunk!! All of the excitement from the day! Also - I made myself an appt. at this AMAZING spa that I was recently introduced to b/c I had a free massage/free facial coupon. Well, they have this SUPER deal going for 199.00 that includes : 90 minute Ultimate massage 90 minute Ultimate age defying facial eyebrow arch signature pedicure with parrifin dip signature manicure Brazilian or full bikini wax Pretty excited for all of this! I am trying to spread all the appts. out over a few weeks so I can feel like a fancy lady. I have the massage tonight! 90 minutes!!!! Oh my god! Ultimate bliss!!! Which I don't actually know is good or bad since my shoulder pull/pain has moved to my shoulder blade/back and is kinda a stinging nerve that is very, VERY present. I tried to have Justin work on it a little and it was serious pain. Maybe it is from all of the teaching and doing - but not doing the postures with the right intention or warm up, so I just throw my body into it.

Nico!
Poor dear! Last night Justin starts shaving her to the bone due to mats and the warmer weather. She had the longest, thickest hair and now she is naked save for feet, head and tail which are as bushy as ever .... so you can figure out how completely strange she looks. So, after this she was acting totally skittish and erratic and humiliated. Naturally this led to me accusing my well intending boyfriend of traumatizing her. Later in the night, I realized there was blood all over the pillow she was on and wondered if Justin nic'd her - but really, she would not be bleeding for hours from a small cut. After a bit of investigation, we came to the realization that she was in heat!!! For the first time! On a full moon none the less! I felt so emotional and then we covered our cream colored couches with towels. What an overwhelming puppy --- or is she now a dog?!!?!? ---- night! Current Mood: bouncy |
