Yoga happened!

What kind of Yoga do you practice?

It's a mix, between Ashtanga and restorative and one other type that I can never get the name right.  I have at least three different teachers at the studio that I go to and their styles are all unique.  Which I kind of like, since certain other teachers are all "clones" of their trainer who happens to be the owner.   And as a friend said, she also teaches yoga and works with the body chakra's....the owner doesn't "do a thing for me".  His style is quite repetitive and never varies in his classes.  I like a mix of styles and after my hernia surgery, my body responds to certain styles like restorative, than others.  That's probably more info than you needed, but, I hope it explains well.

It does, thanks.

I'm told I should try Yoga Nidra to bring down my stress levels.

Ah, Yoga Nidra, as well as Kripalu are the other ones that my teachers bring to my classes.

Father's Day in Australia. My daughter made me my first play list. (I keep thinking of more songs LOL) and I have just come back from a nice meal at an Indian Restaurant with her.
Happy Father's Day.

Finished my first oil change.

I actually started it yesterday but I came to removing the oil filter and found it was in there extremely tight. Naturally this stumbling block didn't present itself till late afternoon when the auto parts stores were closed, so I had to wait until this morning to buy a proper oil filter socket wrench attachment.
Silly me for presuming the dealer wouldn't have near soldered the damn thing in there.

Can't you just get a standard oil filter wrench in there??

That's what I've used on all my vehicles including my motorcycles.

  My toilet seat has been loose for several weeks.  Tonight I examined where it attaches to the bowl,
  and I discovered plastic screws that had gotten really loose.  I found where they were screwed in below
  the rim of the seat and tightened them, and now the seat is back to its proper condition.  Easy peasy.  :2thumbsup:

MYLAR COMC BOOK BAGS WORK!!!

Only six trade paperbacks were damaged out of about 700 comics and trade paperbacks. Two copies of the same one were never bagged :facepalm2: and a three-pack set that came in its own hard paperboard collector case that couldn't be bagged with any normal comic book bag were exposed to water. The three comic book boxes were utterly soaked, so I am amazed and grateful.

Been dealing with that and clearing out the carpet fragments that were under the comics and a bunch of plastic containers with all of my college memorabilia, pro sports collectibles from games I attended, and my band swag (including audio and video recordings, set lists, signed albums, etc.), which were thankfully unaffected as that stuff can't be replaced.

explored something a bit different and out of the usual fields for me (just starting to get into opioid chem)

The 3,6-dibenzoyl ester of morphine. Not as potent as dipropionylmorphine, and significantly slower onset via IV route, seems longer lasting though than morphine or heroin. But not a great rush on injection of the product.

Next up: desomorphine and tetrahydrodesomorphine.
Beyond the pale. Way, way beyond the pale.

Following both neck surgueries I stayed overnight and the next day in the hospital and was on a Morphine drip. It was very disappointing. Didn't help pain (surgical or chronic pre-existing) and didn't even get loopy.

Boo!
