Hectic Week

With last week's conference craziness over, and Kris, Robert and Boris off in Torino, I figured I'd get to relax this week. But it hasn't worked out that way so much, as I seem to have taken on rather a lot of work and it all needs to get done right about... NOW. Ahhh!

(Speaking of work... one of the things I'm doing is coordinating a Branding Workshop for Not-for-Profits and social mission businesses. If you work in either of those sectors, and think you could use a little high-end help getting yourself and your org started on a path of clearer messaging about your work... then you should register yourself quick.

On the plus side, Vancouver has been unendingly sunny for days now, which is awesome. On the down side, I have spent basically NO time out playing in it. Just me and my laptop, together forever, indoors.  

Also on the down side... I lost my digital camera a few weeks ago, which is why the photostream to the left there has been so stagnant. Sad story!!! I miss being able to snap pictures of life as it goes by.

But back to the plus side... as the days get longer, and especially with the sun, I've been getting up much earlier again. It feels good to be getting an early start on the day. Makes it possible to start putting some yoga back into my mornings....

A hodge-podge of random thoughts, musings, and links – sometimes about social change, sometimes about technology and the web, sometimes about yoga, and occasionally about knitting. Sometimes (because I'm a Canadian girl with deep roots in the British Isles) I even write about the weather.

I'm a yoga teacher, founder of Yoga for Geeks, and a freelance web writer, strategist, and project manager. I also help to co-create the amazing Web of Change Conference, every September in beautiful British Columbia.
