Move to Thailand and SNOW!!

Yesterday was quite the day! Sadly, I missed yoga because I slept through my alarm and for 11.5 hours. When I woke up and realized what I had done, I was a little upset. Well…I knew I couldn’t get to the studio and walk in late so I waited until the class was scheduled to end and still made it down for a visit. For those of you who aren’t really up to date, I kinda have a thing for one of the instructors. For the time being, we’ll call her B. She’s one of the younger instructors although she’s 6 years older than me. She’s lived in Colorado Springs for 3 months now and just got back from spending 2.5 years in Asia teaching Yoga. We connected on our traveling experiences and are growing closer as we discover more that we have in common. Unfortunately, our work schedules are completely the opposite of each other with me working evenings. We’re trying to find time when we can connect outside of the yoga studio and outside of work. She’s a really great woman and I’m finding myself coming up with reasons to see her. Hmm… anyways, while this “thing” is exciting the bad news is, she just signed a 6 month contract to return to Thailand to teach yoga and she’ll be leaving the first week in January. I knew she was planning on relocating for a little it but I didn’t imagine it would be outside of the country again, not that I can really blame her. She told me after the last yoga students of the day’s class left. She was also very quick to invite me to go visit and promised we’d have a blast. I’m not really sure if I’ve got the cash to splurge on a trip to Thailand but we’ll see how I feel by January.

On a different note, work last night was tiresome. I had to mediate a conflict resolution between two patients. One patient allegedly physically assaulted another younger patient and left some fairly intensive bruises. I had to explain to the parents of both parties what had been reported and explain their legal rights. I also had to monitor the police examination and help with the report. It was the first day, I found myself not wanting to be at the hospital. Let’s hope this evening goes much smoother!

Finally, last night was the first snow storm of the season! It snowed 2 inches at my house in Monument. While driving home from work, it was basically white out conditions which were both a shock and a bitch to drive through. The wind was fierce too; trying desperately to push my car off the highway. I love the snow though! The days are so much brighter and exude an energy that just makes you feel happy and uplifted.
