You Should Blog That!!

Me to Guido, Tuesday:Someday, I will walk to the trainer’s desk at the top of the hour, and you will standing their waiting like a shiny new penny. I will faint away in disbelief.
Guido to me:
Hey, Deb… ya know you should write that!
So I have.

It’s Official!

At a point this past January (February?) I realized that there are a number of choices I have made in the past several years that made me sad and unhappy.
I didn’t feel well physically, and I chose to cut back on participating in things.
I vowed to change.
The first step in making this change was to [...]

Tale of the Scale, 4/23

Well, darn it all! I’m not sure if I’ve gained any weight (I think I have), but I certainly didn’t lose anything.
Not surprising I guess given that I spent 5 days at the Claremont last week, eating food made with too much butter and cream. And not working out all that hard.
I got home [...]

Moons, New and Full

I regularly check out the predictions for the New and Full Moon at Lisa Miller’s website: astrowisdom.com. I think I found the link from Julie. I am forever thankful.
There was a New Moon this past Tuesday (4/17). I just read about this (hey, I was buried in my workshop) and find the [...]

Getting To Know You – Childhood Memories

The Getting to Know You “interview” this week is a (blessedly short one) about childhood memories. I don’t like to remember my childhood, having huge gaping holes in what it was like. I’m beginning to believe that those holes are normal; children’s lives are so repetitive, what would we remember except the exceptions?

There [...]

Wednesday’s A Winner

Color Saturated Sunset, April 10, 2007
Tuesday was fairly normal day until sometime between 2 and 3 pm.
I woke up (and for the first time in ages remembered I’d dreamed), found a cool story to write for BlogHer, fed the dogs, did some straightening up.
Late morning workout. I was so good. I admitted that [...]

Tale of the Scale: 4/09

Weight is staying the same. Yep, I’ve gotten complacent. I haven’t written down every meal, haven’t calculated % of fat, or counted calories in a few weeks. And have been letting myself get by with lighter workouts.
What do I think I’m going to accomplish? Am I wisely using my time and money?
Part [...]

Courtesy of Deb. Fifty questions, since I chose not to do the “Getting To Know You” thing this week.
1.Whats your name spelt backwards?

2. What did you do last night?
Baked banana nut bread and watched The Sound Of Music.
3. The last thing you downloaded onto your computer?
A ringtone of the stadium singing [...]

Found in the Newspaper..

There were several strange, charming stories in the paper today.
First… the charming story of the coyote who simply strolled into a Quiznos and sat down in the cooler. He has a better home.
Second, and I cannot find a link to this story anywhere… but my local newspaper (the Contra Costa Times) has photographs [...]

Twittering Away….

This wild turkey lives in the woods behind our house. Taken with major digital zooming.
I’ve been playing with Twitter for about a week now. I swear I don’t know why. It’s just folks writing what they are doing at that moment. You are limited to 140 characters (letters, punctuation or spaces).
So [...]
