I know, I know. You’ve all been waiting with bated breath, wondering when I’d be hitting “publish” on my Annual Turkey Day Craft post. It’s been a week and still nothing. You thought I’d forgotten, didn’t you? Well, to you I say in no uncertain hyperbolic terms, what is life without a turkey craft?!? And [...]

Okay, so maybe I’m not the most athletic of persons (I may have misspelled athletic before spell checking this post). And okay, sure, neither is my dog, Wendy. But, what better way can she and I support the local animal shelter than to participate in their 8K run/ 4K walk later this month? Yes, you [...]

Thirty….as in 30!…did not shape up to be my parent’s “30.” Unsurprisingly, so far neither has 31. Not that I’m complaining. Because I’m not. I mean, just check out the majestic 30 Something life I lead… The other day, someone asked me what I did over the weekend. After thinking long and hard (TWSS), I [...]

Wendy, modeling the versatility of Samsonite’s comfy, padded interior. I’ve been commuting to my job for six years next month (umm, wow…really? Where have the years GONE?!), during which time I’ve put a number of bags to the test. I’ve tried the two-fer: the purse and work bag double whammy (too much to carry). I’ve [...]

Five years. Last week, though (like the bad little blogger I’ve been lately) I only just realized, marked five years for me as a blogger. Reflecting on that time, both upon blogging and the content on which I write, I’ve experienced quite a bit of Life over those years… I fell in love. And out [...]

This morning, I stood on the edge. I stood and looked up, gazing for a while at the pale pink and gray sky; wisps of cloud blocking the spreading sunlight as it filtered through the treetops lining the lake across the street, across the harbor and breakwater. There was a faint coolness in the air [...]

My new obsession is shopping for a bike. I asked for one for my birthday last month and have been scouring the city and the internets for the perfect new ride ever since. I’ve had the same bike- a pink Schwinn mountain bike that my parents got me when I was 12 or 13, for far [...]
