Intention

Waiting for Sunday to arrive.  In the last days before January 29th's tower race, I continue to visualize successfully climbing to the 80th floor.  I feel the accomplishment already, but I must live in this moment at the same time.  Restless.

Simple workouts, nothing complex or new.  Nothing to tire my legs before Sunday, but continued light cardio workouts a must.  I can do that!

Highlights today:

-- bright, sunny, and almost warm
-- leftover Salmon en Papilotte for dinner
-- knowing a repairman will be here at 8 a.m. tomorrow to address
    nagging plumbing issues
-- the scale!  Total loss since Jan. 5th, 10 pounds
-- the way I always feel like I can stand up straighter, as if I'm
    suddenly taller, after Pilates class
-- discovering one more person who actually reads my blog
-- Pilates instructor's parting words

At the end of  Pilates today, we realized the next time I'll be there, the stair climb will be over.  As I put on my shoes by the door, Jackie says from across the studio, " I like the way you have prepared for this event...you've been diligent...and reflective...all making this a very full experience."

She described my intention.

It's very affirming 

when someone else sees you

the way you see yourself...

The satisfaction of carrying out your intention?

Priceless.
