Just A Puddle…
GS2 called me last night and asked if I’d pick him up from school today and take him to the skate park so he could ride his rip-stick there. He was bored, he said, of riding it around the cul-de-sac where his apartment is located. I said I would. The spring gods smiled on Pueblo [...]
Let’s All Go Watch the Christmas…Belly Dancing?
Saturday while I was working, I saw a post on FB from a friend of mine that she was going to be coming down from Denver on Sunday to perform in a belly dance show with her old troupe from down here. I met Bean 10 years ago right after I moved out from 2nd [...]
Making Drugs
So, I wonder how many hits I’ll get on the blog with that title? It’s not what you think, though. It’s not about making drugs like cooking up meth or other illegal things, but about the drugs your own body creates that really are good for you, totally legal and so easy to make you [...]
So Far, So Good
I’ve managed to get my yoga on every day since I posted about my self challenge, except for one day when I went for a walk instead. Doing the practice after work is good–it gets all those nasty kinks out after sitting and typing all day. I’m once again struggling with neck/shoulder issues, but right [...]
Back To Basics
Wednesday, another day off, I got up early, around 5 a.m. and did something I purely love to do. I made a pot of coffee, grabbed my fuzzy off the bed, got the book I’m reading at the moment and settled down on the couch in the living room to read until the sun came [...]
Of All the Photos…
…that either of us took while we were in San Francisco for the swim, this one: is my favorite. G took it, of course, I was too focused that morning to even think about a camera. I think it captures perfectly the sense of excitement, eagerness and anticipation that everyone felt that morning. I love [...]
Winner, Winner, Chicken Dinner!
Last night was GS1′s first middle school basketball game. He played and practiced all summer, begged his mom to go to the tryouts, pulled up a couple of lower grades (his grades have been really good this first semester), and made the cut after a week of tryouts. G and I got there about the [...]
Doing It
It began, as most important things in my life seem to, early in the morning. I didn’t sleep much the night before. I expected not to, so that was okay. I got a few hours. I was completely awake by 5 a.m., thinking. The day before, we took a ferry around Alcatraz and I got [...]
Buckling Down
It’s days now. Not months nor weeks, but days. Nervous, yes. Excited, even more. Trying not to worry, of course. There’s so much stuff going on in and around my life right now and I’m trying very hard to focus on keeping up with exercise. I have a 3-day weekend (today, tomorrow and Wednesday), then [...]
HNT – My Little Friend(s)
Oh, get your minds out of the gutter! This, or these, I guess, have become a couple of my best friends over the last months: I keep them upstairs, downstairs, in the meditation room, by my desk. I’m always lifting, hefting, raising and lowering them. Believe it or not, working with these things really [...]
