:highfive: for yoga!

I have a goal of doing handstand pushups at some point, like gymnasts do, and once I get there I want to challenge you to an armwrestling match just for fun.

Loser has to dress like a Catholic schoolgirl for a day.
You're on. BTW, I'm sure I'll look great in a schoolgirl outfit! (I'm sure you will too! :D)

Hey - you might like this: the stormtrooper holding the towel (and one of the ones throwing the frisbee, but I'm not sure which) is a good friend of mine:

The armour's not his. He's a propmaker who's done some work for the production company that made the video. They needed someone at the last minute and they knew him, so they asked him to help them out. :D

I think it's hilarious that neighborhoods will cultivate this crazy attitude of who-has-the-most-pristine-yard as defined by Better Homes and Gardens. Ours looks odd most of the time, but that's because we actually grow real, edible, organic goodies all over it.

We have been slowly replacing the grass on our lawn with veggies, herbs, berry bushes, and fruit/nut trees over the years. I say....leaves are a good thing to leave (LOL, I'm such a dork).

My sister and I are two very different people who are, in reality, the best of friends but she's a perfectionist and I'm not. So, I get in "trouble" often, because I'm not motivated at all today to do certain things that I feel aren't priority because the trees aren't done letting go of these leaves. They keep falling and making more colorful messes to rake.

If one person goes out and rakes, everyone goes out the same day in my cul-de-sac and mows, weeds, rakes...it's so stupid. There isn't a home owner's association here or anything. And no one here is Martha Stewart. You feel this pressure to get out and catch up with everyone else. I say...whatever. She says, let's go!

There's nothing wrong with growing goodies in the yard. I admire your ability to do so. I wish I had the desire to do more natural things outdoors. I enjoy walking and admiring nature but I'm not good at a great many things...
