Yesterday I took a long walk around the neighborhood with my husband before he and my daughter took me out for a Mother’s Day brunch. Then I went to the gym. Walked a half mile around the track. Endured the CSWORX core conditioning class. Then stayed for 50 minutes of Zumba — a first for [...]

The hill that kills
March 23rd, 2013

See this hill? I have a complicated relationship with this damn hill. Oh sure, the rolling hills of the former orchard where my neighborhood is located looks pretty in pictures. We bought the house for the great views. But when it comes to getting my walk on, these little bluffs about do me in. This [...]
Desktop lunch review: In the raw
October 11th, 2011
No Comments
As you can see, today’s lunch selection is sparse. That’s because I have a raging headache and the only food that appealed to me when I left for work (more than an hour late) was fruit. Today’s fare is a feast compared to yesterday’s lunch, which was non-existent. You know those stupid people who say [...]

I just went to the free hotel breakfast that usually means a pig-out on bland waffles, oily sausage and whatever muffin-bricks the hotel staff has found in the freezer. And even though I am usually very pleased with my fat, full tummy after such an indulgence, I usually want to go back to the hotel [...]
The 2010 breakthrough

Today, I was determined to make it to the gym. And, despite all kinds of deterrents, I did it. By deterrents, I really mean stupid excuses. If stupid excuses were currency, I could pay our mortgage with them and have enough left over to get that yacht I always dreamed of. And I’d be sailing [...]
So close and yet I managed to fuck it up

I tried to do the NaBloPoMoFo challenge. I lasted until the 23rd. Aaaaand then I just forgot. I brought work home last night, so I was on the flippin’ computer, working until I had bony fingers, all evening long. But it didn’t hit me until I was in bed, past 11 p.m., that I didn’t [...]
