…through cheap wine. 

Yup.  That’s my new passion.  Not in that drunken skirt-pulled-up-over-my-head type of way.  I just like a glass of wine.  In a pretty glass.  With a piece of fruit or a piece of cheese.  It’s the perfect end to a full day, a perfect start to a relaxing evening.  It’s the “activity” that helps me compartmentalize…day to evening, yang to yin, work to rest.  If at home, I pour myself a glass of wine and sit on the couch.  Read mail.  Heart rate and blood pressure slowly slow.  I give myself a good 20-30 mins like this.  Then I can start dinner and get on with the evening (lack of ) activity. 

In an effort to be cognizant of my economic balance, I’ve been more aware of trying “cheap” wines.  Some have been good, some…not so much.  And I’m tempted to try a box.  Have you seen the juice-boy style wine at Target?  No, I’m not kidding.  I think I’ll start bringing them to work.  Which would make me giggle.  Which is all part of the balance of things. 

Keeping the main thing the main thing:  Heck, I’m too buzzed to remember what that is. 

18/40     I will see the balance in it all!  Save money, giggle, do some Yin homework, prepare a healthy dinner…and maybe do some balance exercises on shaky legs.
