Supper Party

Preparations for a Mexican supper: chicken enchiladas, sauteed corn, peppers and zucchini and garlic baked rice. Pip was my special onion chef. She wore the shades to protect her eyes from the onions.
Mist's friend Sara and Miranda and John's family were our guests. Miranda made dessert: pumpkin, ginger tart. Everything was delicious.
A quiet weekend at home. I have to write most of weekend. Last night I spent hours and hours setting up the girls Playmobile. They have dozens of little scenes. I quite enjoyed it. It was a very Zen activity. I was so engrossed in the activity, I lost all track of time and didn't even want to break for supper. It was so satisfying building all the little worlds. What does this say about my brain? I'd be perfectly happy setting up Playmobile scenes all day long and getting paid for it--a dream job. I will post a pic of our Playmobile worlds soon.
Bikram on Friday at 6am. My tummy was off and I actually had to leave class for a moment to lie on a bench until I felt less nauseous.
An absolutely gorgeous day on the mountain today. The lake is a brilliant blue and the sky cloudless. It was so gorgeous hiking that I really should have taken a few pics--maybe tomorrow during a wee break.
My knees are acting up. I have very long legs for my frame and so I have a high centre of gravity. This puts a lot of stress on my knees, hips, feet , etc. I have discovered that to engage in high impact sports such as running, I have to keep myself too thin in order to be free of leg pain. It's either be super thin verging on too thin and work out happily, or be 5 pounds heavier and suffer knee and leg and foot problems from running. Or at least this is my latest theory. So I choose to do high impact sports and keep myself super thin--it kind of sucks in that I really can't eat much at all to maintain this weight. But at least I can live pain free.
