A bit of daily life - books, running, mountains, some attempts of art and occasional IT rant

What happens if a person tries at the same time to do yoga, pilates, cycling, running and occasional hike - the results are predictably useless. Like the proverbial two (or in my case four) chairs.

Keeping hands busy and head free - painted one more Christmas card. I usually copy some vintage ones or use them for inspiration.

Something for #BlueSkyMonday

A nice and cozy place to seat on the train - also known as floor- and even those are in high demand. But at least bathrooms are functioning and semi clean and delay is only 20 minutes. Small mercies, I guess.

Time to swap pretentious big city indoor sport courses for an authentic rainy, muddy and cold run in countryside. Can’t wait to finally get access to a washing machine- after one week of rinsing my leggings in the sink. #running #trailrunning #runsky

First #christmas market of the season, which was cute and all, but plus 10C? Really? Is it me, or is it really wrong not to be deeply frozen and still be able to feel the toes? After two hours on Christmas market?

Treadmill running. My garmin hates treadmills or I am too stupid to set it up properly, but the numbers are all over the place. But I guess at least 45 minutes are accurate #running #treadmill #runsky

Replaced #running with indoor cycling. This big city flavour with techno soundtrack and dumbbells. Feeling like a terrible cliche, but at least very relaxed one.

Everyone needs a friend who will drag one’s sleep deprived, deeply frozen and mildly depressed body to a photo exhibition without asking any questions.

One (mostly sleepless) night on the train - and I am in the office, equipped with running shoes, laptop and minimal amount of clothing items. The view is so very fitting!

The light was gorgeous! And it was kind of perfect compared to yesterday’s yoga fiasco.

I started to paint post cards couple of years ago out of desperation - I never had store bought on hand when I needed them. I guess 10-12 more to go.

The art and the artist. Way to level up the very mediocre sketch. Miss him so much.

Taken maybe a year ago when I was still playing with #olympustrip film camera. Weather wise could have been today

My beloved top secret equipment. If I remember correctly- this coffee grinder is supposed to be older than me. And I have learned the hard way, that one shall not put Bialetti in a dish washer.

Went for a run instead of sitting around and waiting for a hospital to call. They called all right, now I want to go run again. But I guess I will settle for a brief moment of self pity and a nice and productive day of work.

Next time they tell me to avoid physical activity for at least 24 hours, I shall probably listen. But one more day of taking it really easy - and I would start climbing the walls.

Yesterday was apparently an official self pity day. Desperate times call for hard core yoga session. It is difficult to pity oneself if you are twisted in unnatural position, trying not to puke on a mat and teacher advises you to relax and breathe.
Sketch was a byproduct.

After two full sketchbooks dedicated to food, more food and occasional flower I am at least trying something different

Do you call your plants by name? Is it awfully rude if I don’t?…..

Today I have decided to give myself a break. I might go to the gym later, or do yoga, but no #running . And of cause the weather picked this day to be perfect! 19 degrees in November! This is just wrong

Rushed and semi conscious run on very tired legs. Result - very predictable, but at least I am awake and now caffeinated. Desperate search for lip balm revealed my treasure box with pics shot with Olympus Trip 35 mm - and I was sure I got rid of them. #running #runsky #5krun

I really shall stop complaining about home office- I can go for a run before work, shower, have breakfast and still be on time! Downside- I don’t remember the last time I wore jeans.
