Glad you popped over to Lisa’s blog! I am a lover of Yoga as well, and currently in the struggle stage of trying to overcome the poking, prodding and pinching of the areas I feel need improvement~ it is a frustrating thing because I am 32, a mother of 2 boys, a smart woman and really should know better without trying so hard to know better! It is all a journey and one day at a time will get me further than not trying at all
Love the Beatles and always had the best time when listening to them with my students in Korea. Ironically the kiddies favorite song was “Lucy in the Sjy with Diamonds”…I never told them what it was about 
…it was supposed to say “Lucy in the SKY with Diamonds”…DOH!!
found you from I’m an okie & let me just say : you’re so pretty! seriously gorgeous!
Love the blog and the message!
