how i've been spending the last few weeks

morning runs uptown along the Missisippi

lots & lots of yoga in my evenings!

Abby came to visit, which was wonderful. we made friends with the cutest dog in the planet. seriously, it was like we had somehow stepped inside of a puppy calendar. there are a lot more photos where this came from, but i'll limit myself to one. plus her name is Georgia!

gave myself a little hair trim; this swampy jungle air is making my hair grow like crazy (and turn really, really blonde). please excuse the dirty mirror...

there's jasmine everywhere right now! it smells like heaven.

i feel like i've been so MIA lately! i've been busy, but good. Abby came to visit, Lucy McKenzie is here now, and Sarah just moved out. lots of working during the day, long nights out, and leisurely long mornings / breakfasts. it's been great, but i'm really ready to get back into a normal routine-- i always feel better when i'm in a stable routine. i'm starting my practicum on Friday, and i think that this weekend / coming week will be the time to establish my new routine of working, practicum-ing and working out (inside). i've been keeping up with my runs outside, but it's really starting to heat up!
