bonsoir from little rock.
beau drove about 18 hours straight. we shut down the new studio for the night, dropped off beloved dibora, showered, packed the car, and hit the road. here we are!
i slept in the back most of the journey and my body is an achy mess. especially after the craziness of the past week - shipping, finals, moving, and setting up our new arlington studio hOMe. did some car yoga (simple seated positions) and lounges as soon as we got to our hotel. boy these hips are snug. amazing what a few days of chaos will do to the body!
considering it is early august, it's time to reflect on what's to cOMe. sadly, a few july dreams didn't happen, but, no worries, i'm moving them along to august. this month is SO out of the norm with the oodles of travel, a silent meditation retreat, and thumb surgery topped off with starting school on the 31st!
overall, i want to savor the experience. j'adore road trips (was walking louis and singing "dewey wears short shorts" to the tunes of the gas station music about 5am this morning), enjoy perusing new cities, and love seeing the country via car. follow along via twitter as i'll be posting photos as we go.
i'm so excited to meet sOMe of you next week in san antonio, austin, houston, and dallas!
please share your dreams/goals, too, or at least pen them in your journal as a reminder of what you hope to experience this sultry month.
