Yoga and Eagles

Today was almost a wasted day. I spent way too much time on the couch. Slept in until 8:30, yes I know that is late. I basically sat on the couch with the Today show on, paying bills, balancing the checkbook, organizing paperwork and watching the eagles on the internet. I have two sites I watch. The first is the one I mentioned earlier about the nest of two eggs at the Washington Arboretum. Those babies won't hatch until the middle of March. The other site

is in Florida and it is two eaglets that are almost ready to fly from their nest. Today I saw both parents perched near the nest. It was quite spectacular. I've learned to take a screen shot of the live video I watch. The second one is the baby eaglet with the parents in the background.

Finally in the afternoon I got off my behind and went to the House of Jai. It is a yoga studio about 10 minutes from the apartment. I took a 75 minute restorative yoga class and it was wonderful. Restorative yoga uses props to create a soothing and supportive environment to help one reach a state of deep relaxation. It helps you release tension and encourages rest. It was exactly what I needed.

The rest of the evening we had dinner, Jim researched places to visit on Long Island, we watched Breaking Bad and then the coverage of the GOP Primary.
