Elennare Posted June 25, 2017 Report Share Posted June 25, 2017 Here's my first entry. The cat decided not to look at the camera, and I'm pointedly ignoring the giant pile of laundry on the couch that needs to be put away. It's been there for over a week. I'd say that qualifies as miserable. 9 Quote Wood Elf Waywatcher Mandalorian (Assassin/Ranger hybrid) Link to comment

When one landed on my gardening glove, I decided that the weeds could stay right where they were. Storms are brewing, too. Angry bees, angry sky! Love the bonus shot! That could count as miserable and death-defying yoga (p.s. stay safe out there everyone!!) 14 hours ago, Elennare said: Here's my first entry.

Elennare Posted June 26, 2017 Report Share Posted June 26, 2017 I can't figure out how to color cells on the spreadsheet from the phone app. Does someone mind turning cat green for me and marking garland yellow for me? 1 Quote Wood Elf Waywatcher Mandalorian (Assassin/Ranger hybrid) Link to comment

JustCallMeAmber Posted July 1, 2017 Report Share Posted July 1, 2017 Sugar cane pose in front of an unmade bed and a pile of clean laundry that still hasn't been put away.

Xena Posted July 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2017 Haven't done this pose in many years. Procrastinated so much that it became miserable even without doing anything. Wow, tripod not too flattering on the abs: If I could just stay stuck in this middle pose the whole time, everyone would think I was ripped: Actual headstand. Kind of looks like I'm wearing some kind of dark nylons under the shorts. That would be extra miserable! This pose was actually pretty fun once I did it. I usually did headstand where we had to lift from a pike (hard with my tight hammies). This way is MUCH gentler. Uses the core in kind of a fun way. Think I might even try this on the paddleboard (on warm days when I don't mind falling in). 7 Quote Xena, Level 14+ Valkyrie Ranger January 2017 December 2016 Oct/Nov 2016 Link to comment

Coco P Loco Posted July 11, 2017 Report Share Posted July 11, 2017 Ok, after a couple of weeks of procrastination, I finally got round to doing this pose! It's actually a really simple one, but I was icky and sweaty from my run and rings workout. Oh, and I have a mild hangover from going out to celebrate the hubster's birthday last night, so that hammering I mention in the caption, is going right through my skull! And my next one is #47, the Little Thunderbolt. Sounds interesting, off to look it up... 5 Quote Current Challenge Backstory | Challenge 1 | Challenge 2 | Challenge 3 | Challenge 4 | Challenge 5 "We are what we believe we are." - CS Lewis Link to comment

But that help made me smile till she tried to nibble on my inner elbow! @Xena Thank you!

suzyQlou Posted July 12, 2017 Report Share Posted July 12, 2017 Ironic Misery. Sphynx pose looks like I'm just lying around. Which is what I've been doing for the past few days Lying around, reading a book, watching the flowers grow. It was heaven for the first couple days, but I miss my family. Everyone else is at camp or Grandma's house, and I finally get to catch up with them tonight. 5 Quote suzyQlou * Ranger Old Challenges: #1(2015) * #2 * #3(push ups) * #4 * #5(food) * #6 * #7(2016)* #8(nerdiversary) * #9 * 10(animal) * Battle Log * 11(2017) * 12(garden) * 13 * 14(biking) * 15 * 16 * 17 * 18 * 19(2018) * 20(2019) * 21 Link to comment

I couldn't find a good yoga riddle, but here's this for a smile: What do you get when you combine Starbucks and yoga class? Spoiler I don't know but there's probably a hipster nearby.

I'm back to posting my pics on Instagram, so work peeps have been asking what on earth I'm doing... I guess this one will raise more questions So here goes... Next one is #64 - revolved head to knee...
