Yoga is supposed to be relaxful ...

Yoga is a great thing to do. Relaxes the mind, stretches the muscles, etc. I found out I like practicing yoga when I visited my parents in July and attended one of my mom's classes (she's a certified yoga instructor). I can manage a 20-minute video these days and so I invested in a Rodney Yee A.M. 20-minute workout video. I like his style, I like the shortness of it.

But it's SO not relaxing.

The Orclette loves to do yoga as well. This means she dances around me on the yoga mat, helps me with the poses, and thinks it's great fun to lie under me as I'm doing the downward dog pose. And during the relaxation part of the segment she figures it's the PERFECT time to climb all over me.

I think I'm going to designate yoga time as coloring time and confine her in her highchair. That'll make both of us happy.

That leaves the Miniorc. I usually turn on the DVD right after he eats but that doesn't mean 5 minutes into it he won't start crying. So sometimes it takes up to an hour to finish the 20-minute segment.

But it does get done.

And though it's not particularly relaxful, my muscles reap the benefits. And my mind is content in the knowledge that I managed to complete a workout.

Even when it's the only thing that gets done all day.

Our youngest 2 kids are about the same as yours (well, maybe a bit older). My wife works out when the youngest one goes down for his morning nap. And the 3-year old generally watches a DVD.

But... Yeah! At least you get in the workout.

The Cat is Out of the Bag

I wonder where that expression comes from? There is this fabulous book that can tell you, only I forgot the name of it. Next time I come across it I think I'm going to have to buy it. Anyway. I was going to wait. A long time. Maybe forever. I don't like people coming up and hugging me, smiling and saying congratulations, or asking me questions. But Damm was talking to his recruiter about insurance. And he mentioned something that he should've told the recruiter was non-repeatable, because 5 minutes later the recruiter told Damm's mother (I have no earthly idea why he's talking to her-I keep forgetting to ask). After that I had to tell my mother. We haven't told any extended family members because there are quite a few here celebrating Damm's mother's graduation and that would be the worst form of torture I can imagine. So yeah, I'm knocked up again :P And this time I'm getting the t-shirt. "It" is due August 11. I have not been to a doc...

Guildless.

Me and Wulfa are now guildless. This came as kinda a shock and with no communication from the deciding party. I'm currently looking for a guild for us. We are not "raiders" and will never be. We do research our gear and fights and in general our classes. We are looking for a guild that we can be a part of, chat with, and not be expected to raid or be on specific times. I think that means we're looking for a "social" guild. We are primarily alliance but once finances get squared away(aka my bonus arrives) we could possibly convert to horde. If anyone knows of any guilds that they would recommend please let us know.

Gearing up the wulfa.

Okay so Wulfa needs a little bit of help. And as I'm officially her 'researcher' like she is my 'banker' here is what I've got: I am suggesting she get Mongoose on her spear for + a bunch of agility . Her spear is a really good one and it should be okay at this point to get enchants. I'm an idiot and didn't read the enchant. Sorry I thought that was a static + agi and a chance for weapon speed increase. The normal + agi enchant it is then. Thanks Crashandburn for noticing. And her bow I'm suggesting she get a plus hit scope . I am suggesting she gem anything and everything with Rigid Golden Draenites because right now her hit rating is below 142 which is what I've seen as the magic number for hunters to stop missing. Missing right now is a huge drag on her dps so lets get that stopped right away. I noticed her ring was a bit old and suggested: http://www.wowhead.com/?item=31527 http://www.wowhead.com/?item=27733 http://www.wowhead.com/?item=303...
