“I get out of the taxi and it’s probably the only city which in reality
looks better than on the postcards, New York.”
~ Milos Forman

It’s November in NYC, and it has never been better!  A little rain, cooler weather, sunny skies, cloudy skies, sidewalks strewn with the autumn colors of fallen leaves, the smell of fresh baked bread, coal oven pizzas and sidewalk delicacies – this is the time to be in the city! I have had a crazy week, lots of work and still needing to catch up on rest, but I kicked that nasty cold and have been taking in the streets of NYC for the last few days I am here.  I will be returning to my home office in the Dallas area this week and even though I am ready to be home and see my loved ones, I am a little sad to leave.  There is an energy here that is undeniably New York City – it’s addictive!

Today I plan to meander over to the Farmer’s Market at Union Square and then possibly to Central Park for a stroll by the lake.  Maybe I will hop over to Rockefeller Center and look for a Christmas Ornament for my mom – whatever the day brings, I promise to soak it up and be in the moment, the moment that is mine.  I hope you will do the same.

In case your week has been busy, here is a chance to get caught up on what has been happening here at Saturday Soul this week:

Don’t Despair, Another Train is Coming – This week’s Saturday Soul article on not giving up, this too shall pass and there is something better coming your way!
Watch the Dance, it is Everywhere – Yoko Ono inspiration on paying attention to the beauty in each moment we have been given.
Masks are not just for Halloween – What are masks and why do we wear them? A little info that helped me to take a deeper look to understand myself.
Love in the Works – Poetry from my heart to yours.
Love, Lace, and Fragile Things – Poetry on the sensual beauty and fragility between lovers.
I miss this little girls heart – Keeping that childlike heart sometimes needs a little help with the right body language!
Love and peace!  Enjoy your Sunday!

I have been in NYC all week for business and visiting my family, I must have forgotten to rest up because over the last two days I have come down with a nasty cold. Needless to say my body and soul need to rest, so I will be taking it easy on this beautiful Sunday. I plan to drink some hot tea and and snack on sliced ginger and maybe indulge in a decadent desert like the Earl Grey Caramel Chocolate Tart, or get deeper into my new book “Unleash the Power of the Female Brain” while catching a nap –  when the urge strikes!  Either way, the day will be restful and restorative.

Hopefully, you are healthy and gearing up for a fun and playful Sunday. Wherever the day takes you, I hope it’s wonderful. I can’t thank you enough for your time in choosing to stop by SaturdaySoul.
