well i wish i could say something witty, but being that this is Bette Calman, who is in her 80s, doing an incredibly difficult yoga asana, called Mayurasana, or Peacock…. well i got nothing, because she is an inspiration to me.
this is a yoga asana that most people cant even begin to do with their bodies, it takes a ton of strength and concentration.
she is freaking amazing!

Glad to see the computer lab at grandma’s nursing home has photoshop.
“When I was growing up, this is how we went to school.”
I’m not witty enough to participate. The only things I can think of are ageist and it just doesn’t seem right considering she could kick my butt in any yoga stance. Did I mention that I’m the most inflexible person in the world? I use prenatal yoga DVDs to work out. Even when I’m not pregnant, because they’re I can’t handle ‘regular’ yoga.
One of two things is going on in this picture. It seems pretty clear that she has lost her contact but doesn’t want to mess us her freshly painted toenails while she looks for it. If that is not it, then she likely has mental issues and is trying to dry hump her shadow.

After a unattached man moved into the retirement home the ladies flocked to woo him… but Granny decided to take a different approach and woo him with her mad planking skills. “He won’t be able to resist this strength and flexibility” she thought as he drove by in his golf cart.

Mavis never did understand why “pant-suit” was a dirty word. When paired with pearls and gated pavement, her trainer Hank assured her, she looked every bit the Southern Comfort Cougar Tartlett her yoga pose was named for.

[...] #4. Get my heart rate up higher. The trainer is suppose to get back to me today on exactly where he thinks it should be, but he estimates 160. I did a quick google and came up with a 135 – 154 range. When I was hanging out with Elli this morning it had my average heart rate at 136 so I think I need to kick it up a bit in intensity. I think I need a heart rate monitor. Hook a girl up Hank. [...]
