Island Living

Last couple of weekends I have gone to Campbell River with Rob. I love the Island, it so peaceful there in his home. I love waking up and feeling the sun and the ocean. It feels so wonderful to be away right now. Each breath feels like home. I feel like a regular on BC ferries and chronic to their chicken fingers. We left Saturday for the 10:30 am and stopped in Coombs to look at hand made wooden chairs. Every kept calling me Rob's wife lol. Oddly it didn't feel strange. After ice cream and the purchase of a end table we were back on the road to Campbell River. Rob's cabin was freezing when we arrived. 

I am avoiding my family right now. I have not gone home since Christmas. Their home does not feel like home, just feels odd.  

I am starting to cook again. More adventures, I bought Gwyneth Paltrow's cookbook and I actually like it. It is not difficult to follow at all. I made turkey meatballs last night, I think they need more savory spice but it was an excellent lunch choice today. Meatballs and yams. I am looking forward to yoga class tonight. I can't wait to get back on the mat. I want to feel my body move and stretch. Something truly deep happens to me when I go to class. 

Lately I have more energy and less naps in the afternoon and I think the change in diet was much needed to be a better person. I am less grumpy. 

My exam is coming up soon and I am starting to feel it and notice the change in me as I mentally start to get ready for it. These are my fighting words. The exam will not defeat me this time.
