Wanderings and Musings

Continuing on with my 30 days of Meditation, Drawing and Workouts. I’ve gotten some decent meditation time in, and lots of workout time. Drawing probably needs more than 20 minutes to get into the flow and really produce though.

Day 6

Drawing - 20 more minutes of drawing on the Moth… worked on shading and texture.

Meditate - 20 minutes of Deep Meditation. Was drifting deep (deep sleep or deep stillness I can’t tell ) but the alarm startled me. I know people say you don’t need an alarm, but when I do it before heading into work, I don’t want to come up out of it 2 hours later than I should.

Workout - Odds and ends of the body, some stomach, calves, etc. Also tanned and burnt my butt So a little sore on the muscles and a little sore on the skin.

Day 7

Drawing - I spent my drawing time with my daughters today. I love it when they want to draw with me. Finished up the Moth… next is to start drawing Briana’s birthday picture.

Meditate - I did 20 minutes of meditation while my girls were here. It’s the first time I’ve ever meditated with other people in the room. I filtered out their activity very nicely and went pretty deep.

Workout - This will be tricky… I need to workout today, but I have my daughters over…. They ended up staying home while I ran to the gym next door for a few minutes. I rushed through my workout and got back quickly

Day 8

Drawing - Missed

Meditate - Missed

Workout - Went with Rickey and did a quick workout of back, shoulders and biceps.

Day 9

Drawing - Started Briana’s birthday drawing. She picked an abstract design and wants it on a 3d checkerboard… This will be a fun and interestingly different drawing than I’ve done before.

Meditate - 20 minutes of deep meditation. Felt some good moments of stillness.

Workout - Evening workout of chest and triceps with Rickey. We both weren’t really into it, so we went through it pretty fast.

Day 10

Drawing - Worked on Briana’s drawing for 20 minutes in colors of blue.

Briana's Birthday Drawing Part 1

Meditate - 20 minutes of deep meditation.

Workout - Two workouts today!! Yay! One was at lunch time where I did some quick but strenuous cardio. The second was legs in the evening… again pushing light reps and going until they hurt bad to prepare for skiing.
