Happy March

It's my March break and I'm suppose to be marking essays right now. I have about 60 compositions to correct. I started at 10 am this morning and I have done three so far (it's 10:30 am)
Needless to say, I'd rather do something else: enjoying this sunny morning, knitting , reading Out of Africa, organizing my yoga dvds.
I did my yoga practice this morning, which was lovely! Yoga Today rocks! If I don't do my yoga practice early in the morning, I lose all interest. Before a shower, a cuppa tea and checking my emails, I need to do yoga. If I don't, the day just unwinds and before I know it it's the afternoon and other things take priority.

A new month. I can't believe we're in March already! It just kindda crept up.

Random things (because I love randomness):

Margot loves looking at videos of herself on the computer. This is how we survive the "witching hour":




"It's an odd thing, but anyone who disappears is said to be seen in San Francisco. It must be a delightful city and possess all the attractions of the next world," - Oscar Wilde





When you need to refresh a room, sometimes just moving the furniture around does the job. This is what we did to our bedroom and now it's so inviting: there's a little reading nook, the bare wall isn't so overbearing and there's a little trinket bookcase that use to be our console table.


But now our entrance looks like this. It's a bit empty, but that's alright as Margot excels in reorganizing the baskets full of tuques, mitts, sweaters.

  1. I love how universal the 'witching hour' seems to be!

  2. When exactly is your witching hour?

    I know what you mean about being energetic first thing. I'm just the same with my silly home exercise routine. Either it gets done before anything else, or the momentum goes and it doesn't get done.

    Your house always look so neat and tidy and calm. Every now and again I glimpse the backdrop to my photos, and feel a hot flush of shame... Maybe I should move some furniture!

  3. Bex: don't feel too bad. The resident man slave does all the heavy lifting.

    1. A resident man slave you say? I would like one that could also do the hoovering, the cooking and a bit of light dusting. Perhaps I could just get my current "Ironing" model upgraded.
