Day 6 of captivity!  I continue to follow the daily regimen and have yet to leave the first and second floors of my home, and except for the early accident, I have not put my foot down with any weight.  Navigating through the snow and ice, I will venture out tomorrow for my 7-day post-op doctor visit.  I definitely have morphed into a routine of Internet shopping, junk mail, the golf channel and Christmas movies.  My recycling habits have been stellar and I am on my third grocery bag!

My daily active life style event is my floor yoga practice.  I am counting on it for  for circulation, flexibility and all things exercise (excluding the extremely unattractive daily ritual of pulling myself upstairs).  I have created my floor practice from a variety of topic sources such as healing yoga, foot surgery practices and listening to the many great teachers I have had the past couple of years at Corepower Yoga.  Of course, no one would confuse my current practice with all the toxins expelled at any of the Corepower yoga practices.  Whoever coined the term 'pacticing yogi' certainly was talking about me; I listen well, try really hard, but have limited balance from my half-century of life choices.  My plan is to make this up in the second half with practice, practice, practice.  Plan vs. reality hmmm.....

A happy birthday shout out to my buddy Al - sorry I will miss the birthday celebration, although my wine consumption (not to be confused with whine) is at an all time low so I would have been cheap!  More on this later.
