Cold & Blustery

Wow, our wonderfully mild weather turned into winter weather

yesterday afternoon. The wind howled all night coming in from

the north bringing cold air with it. It's beautiful and sunny

outside, but it's cold.

This morning I went to my first ever yoga class! I am hopeful

that strengthening my core, as they say yoga will do, will

help with the back pain I've been having. The doctor said

it would. I e-mailed my friend Christi earlier this week to

ask her where I should take some classes since I knew

Christi was very into yoga. As it turns out, Christi and

some others have opened a yoga studio called The Yoga

Room and she said she was starting a beginner's class

this very Saturday!

It was a very neat experience and I'm excited to see how

it develops.

Later Hannah and I went to a craft fair at a local high

school. I got a couple of things for Christmas gifts.

We returned a shirt to a store and then went to the

Yankee Candle store. Woo hoo! Love going in there.

I just got a lovely Fall scented Yankee candle from

my friend Ann for my birthday. Today I had a

coupon for a buy-one-get-one so I thought I'd

get a Christmas scent. I let Hannah choose

one of them.

I got Red Berry and Cedar and Hannah chose

Vanilla Lime.

Tonight Mike is making chili and I'm about to throw a

Duraflame in the fireplace. Mmmm, cozy!
