Slow Down, Girl: Giảm tốc độ trong năm 2011

Quá nhiều điều xảy ra tại một thời gian
In 2010 I had a relatively new (and very challenging) job, a new housing situation following 20+ years in my previous place, my mom got cancer and I got slammed with a giant unexpected bill from the IRS. I also got a couple of cute dogs, made some really cool new friends, had a few gratifying successes at work, and spent lots of time with people I love.


In October or so, I started to have some physical reactions to all the stress that was going on, but even that didn't stop me .






Tôi bị mất ghi chú của tôi nhiều lần năm ngoái
It wasn't until I started losing notes that I'd taken at various meetings that I finally cried uncle. Something I'm going to look into: it seems more than a little dysfunctional to me that my own heart palpitations don't bother me as much as screwing up on the job. 


Tôi sẽ thay đổi hành vi này
So I will do a couple of things to remedy all that.


First: I love yoga, so that tops the list. Teaching this year.




Second: I'm not even going to comment, it just makes me giggle and then I feel better. She's gonna be my new guru.








This week's vocabulary:


Giảm tốc độ            Reduce speed
trong năm 2011      in (year) 2011


 quá nhiều               Too much
 điều xảy ra             Things happen
tại một thời gian    at one time


Tôi                            I/my 
bị mất                      lost
ghi chú của             notes
nhiều lần                 several times/repeatedly
năm ngoái               last year       


hành vi này             this behavior
sẽ thay                    will change


(and this one I have yet to confirm with a real person: not sure but I think cười khúc khích means giggle)
