At Frederick 
It’s cold but Yuki is enjoying playing

[Drunk Monk]

Again at Frederick 
Yuki is being somewhat standoffish. Maybe he doesn’t want to get dirty after being groomed. 
Yeah, right…

Xmas shopping in chinatown

[Drunk Monk]

Star park. It’s a stick party for all the dogs. So many sticks.

[Drunk Monk]

Back home from a short dog walk around the block. Too wet for a park run. 

I’m bummed because our yardworkers cut back our aloe plant too aggressively removing all the blossoms. It was just starting to bloom and I always enjoy that.

[Drunk Monk]

Packed for the yoga intensive followed immediately by Iaido. Both are a short walk from our bungalow and each other. This will be 4 hours of continuous workout. 

And we're not young anymore...

[Drunk Monk]

Standing in front of the heater because the dog park was freakin cold. Getting ready to walk to day 3 of 5 for the yoga intensive.

[Drunk Monk]

Relishes my chill day in which I did very little beyond wrapping some presents (badly) and laundry. Then there was napping, watching the end of a silly Xmas movie, and cheese nibbling (Schoch now makes a Brie but it’s not stellar). Plus there was slurping. 

And counseling a friend who’s had a tough year.

Off to the 5th & final session of the yoga intensive. Then home for more nibbling & slurping.

[Drunk Monk]

Popped awake a few minutes ago. Balboa is quiet at this hour. Now I need to get up & pee. The cats will be amused.

[Drunk Monk]

Popped awake again just now after a festival campsite set up stress dream. It’s my alternative to the ol’ test anxiety dream - not sure why I had this one though. Not particularly stressed right now. Quite the opposite now that Xmas has passed. Maybe it’s that weird zone between Xmas & NYE. I should probably get up and pee…

[Drunk Monk]

Home from the dog park. Yuki has had dinner. Now I’m wondering what to do with my evening.

[Drunk Monk]

Star park, the fake dog park. It’s warm and bright today. Yukz is tired from a hike at Nisene with mom, and then he got in a fight over some dirt he was eating, but at least he’s out and some of his park are here.

[Drunk Monk]

And today Star is a mud park. Chilly. Damp.

[Drunk Monk]

At my work niche.

Stacy took Yuki to the dog park. They went out to meet a yoga friend and her dog, then went straight to the park. Gave me some extra time to work and get my YMAA ducks in a row for next week. That is now sorted thankfully because it has been stressing me out. Now to sort KFM but that's all just writing and with the YMAA monkey off my back, I'm free to write (barring anymore unexpected catastrophes).

That is so merc-n-ret!
