I was so tired yesterday coming home on the train from DC. I did a lot of work at work, ran around all day helping people and looked a lot of stuff up. So I did absolutely nothing last night. I did no yoga, I called no one, I just ate dinner and talked to my son and read a book for a while. Then I had some peanut butter and honey crackers. I had craved chocolate all afternoon.

I went to sleep after reading for a brief time by the light of five candles, as I usually do. The candles and the incense feed my soul. When I woke up, I felt really good, really serene. I woke up before my alarm went off, which just never happens during the week. I felt refreshed and alive. How strange, to get enough sleep during the week.
