Yogi Toes

Hi guys! Im currently taking advantage of the chair massage at the nail salon ;) 

That's right! Bloggin on the job. 

Rewinding a bit, I got the best of both worlds this morning with my Dad! We agreed to treat eachother. I went on a bike ride with him and came home and gave him a little Yoga one on one! It was especially nice to stretch out some muscles after a hard bike ride! OK, let's jsut clear this up a bit. He ain't no beach cruiser! He's one of those spandex clad super peddlers on those skinny minnies! Im talking, wakes up at 5am and rides ungodly distances! 

He is AWESOME! You see, Im more of a basket tottin' beach cruiser myself ;) So, I saddled up and we did a nice ride over the bridge (where I didn't bother to switch gears, mistake 1) and down A1A, the beach. It was a beautiful ride, and I really had to work to retain my breath- a great yoga practice indeed! It was much easier going with the wind on the way home, that's for sure! 

When we got home I did some Eagle Crunches and Stretched out a bit. My dad was in the other room, and all casual and what not, laid down and said he was "ready for that Yoga class!" SUCCESS!!

I whipped out the mats and straps, (is this sounding a bit inappropriate or what?!) and we did some hip-opening sequences from one of my favorite classes. I knew it would be a great way to follow that biking! We did internal and external hip stretches, 90/90, and Dancing shiva laying down. He really enjoyed the Dancing Shiva, and the spinal twisting, but told me not to do "that one where he couldn't walk the next day!" Woops! He really is quite good already! He's such a wimp! Well, my mom was all merry and bright decorating like a freaking mad woman while we twisted and got our OM on. We ended with a lovely Savasana and called it even!

We had a few housekeeping things on the agenda, so I headed to WF, and scored some free tomatoes from my buddy in produce, while they got a head start to my apartment. I came home and made a "TLT" sandwich on some fresh WW Sourdough my mom brought over. I kind of burnt the tempeh, but it was still tasty!

Here's an action shot, RAWR! 

They attempted to hang some drapery while I watched and laughed. 

And that is how I ended up at the Nail Salon ;)

Enjoying some serious R&R, and getting suckered in to the "Deluxe" Pedicure. Oh yes, Can I get an Up-Grade! Up-Grade! 

Not gonna lie, my toesies enjoyed every last penny I wasted! Lookin all soft and supple like a babies butt.

While being pampered I sipped on an Iced Coffee with some soy and munched on a kind of meh Peanut Butter Gnu Bar. I think It was just old, because I really like it's banana counterpart, and had high hopes for this one! I'll still give it another shot, I suppose. 

Alright peeps, thats all we got for ya, I've got nails to dry.

Caroline, OUT!
