Continuing the Dream

Today I drove through one of my favorite areas.  its an area around black mountain and bat cave off Highway 9.  this is one of my favorite drives.  Ive always loved that area.  Especially around Broad River.  A couple weeks ago I took this drive and finally drove up this road Shumont Rd that I have been meaning to drive up for years and never have.  There are a couple properties up there that I had been meaning to check out and I finally did.  Amazing.  I found a beautiful cascade along the way and an abandoned house right beyond it.  I am going to look up county records to see what comes up.  It is a perfect little spot.  Aside from my house in Gerton that I didnt jump on 3 years ago when it was for sale, all because of a man telling me he wasnt living way the fuck up there....I am thoroughly enjoying nobody telling me what I can and cant do anymore. Never again will I allow someone to dictate what I want to do, especially if I am the one paying the mortgage! Live and learn...   I always drive by that one too just to check if it is back on the market. I am creating a vision board to set the focus and intention back to a physical goal and not just a dream.  I have been starting alot of things (again) lately.  I have started making time for meditation again.  This is something that I have missed terribly.  I am discovering being a single mom is not as hard as I was making it.  I just had to be more organized.  I have been making alot more time for me and have been learning that its ok to be a mom and take my daughter places when I meet people out.  I am lucky because she is such a good baby and never cries or gets out of control.  She is actually quite enjoyable and happy all the time.  Happy baby, happy mama :) So I might as well take advantage.  My daughter is my life.  I will be doing yoga again soon.  Its been many years since I did yoga and Im really nervous about my limitations now.  I was really good at it years ago.  A good friend of mine is an amazing yoga teacher and she is such a good soul.  We are going to do private sessions.  She offered it to me a couple months ago, but then with all the junk of being unemployed I wasnt able to do it.  Now Im able to again and I am ready! Im looking forward to yoga and girl time with Jessica :) I have also been treating myself to my favorite coffee house World Coffee alot lately.  Its something I use to do.  Another one of my me time things.  I use to go there and write.  Its a great coffee house.  They have awesome brew and play great music.  I always liked it because its off the main drag.  Not as many hipsters which makes it alot more enjoyable.  So the past week for me has really been about just enjoying life again, making new friends, reconnecting with all my old ones, taking in all the beautiful weather and staying true to me~
