Day 15 - Meditated for the first time morning/evening

 


Today I started ( finally ) on the 8 week course of meditation. I am sure it will take me longer than 8 weeks but this is just me. This is my MO. I meditated for 8 minuets with my eyes closed. Grounding myself. Letting my thoughts come and go. Paying attention to the breath. I am proud of me. Go me I meditated first thing in the morning before coffee. This is incredible. Now I have to keep this up for 6 more days.

Day 9 - Candle making

I made a candle! The kit has been sitting around awhile. It wasn't that difficult and just involved rolling together sheets of wax, around a wick, to make a candle. I cut some shapes out of the last sheet. It went surprisingly well.

Day 11 - A different movie

Image
Watched a movie I wouldn't normally watch in a genre I wouldn't normally choose from. A racing movie called Rush. I was aware of it being on Netflix and aware that it was supposed to be very good but not my sort of movie, don't do sports movies in general but decided to give it a go for something different. It was good, actually. I enjoyed it. The rivalry between the two drivers and their contrasting personalities was made for a compelling watch and thr racing was exciting and well shot. In general the cinematography was pretty great. I would have liked more track action but otherwise a good movie. I don't love it - not being a sports fan. If I was into racing I would have probably enjoyed it much more but I'm glad I saw it. It will never be a fav, but it was good to... do... ( you guessed ) something different.

Day 8 - Malaysian food

Image
  Out geocaching today. A trip to Canary Wharf. No wolves and no canaries but sunshine and tall buildings. I was so hungry I got it a horse made of burgers. I didn't eat burgers or horses but ate a Malaysian curry on a banana leaf. I've eaten Malaysian food before but not this particular dish. Not THE most delicious thing I've eaten but very good. Special mention to the chillies - salty and hot.  What will I do for day 9?! It's another day off so plenty of opportunity for something, innit.
