I went to the Grower's Market today. It's becoming the Friday ritual. I spend A LOT of money, but in return I get to shmooze with a lot of people I really love. It's become one of the highlights of my week, actually. The pic above is G, looking for goodies, and below is a … Continue reading Mansfield Grower’s Market

The Importance of Sleep
Once again, I write about sleep. That's because I don't get enough, so my whole day becomes an exercise in energy management. It's like when your gas tank is *this close* to empty and you are far from a gas station so you try to coast down hills, and drive waaaay under the speed limit … Continue reading The Importance of Sleep
The Numbers of My Life
I am not a number fan. I am a letter girl. And don't get me started on the mixing of numbers and letters like in algebra. That's just wrong. 2x + y = 12? No. The numbers need to stay where they belong (on the number line) and the letters need to stay in the … Continue reading The Numbers of My Life
Fun Ruts
The other day I posted on Facebook that I was compiling my summer reading list and asked all my FB friends for one "must read" recommendation. I asked because I've been in a book rut. I read the same kinds of books all the time: new age, spiritual classics, non-fiction, with the occasional novel thrown … Continue reading Fun Ruts
No More Yoga Talk Here
It's been almost a month since the end of the April Yoga Challenge and some of the people who got so used to talking about their practice in the Comment boxes on this blog are now jonesin' for that old connected feelin' again. So.... Today I built a new blog here on WordPress. It's called … Continue reading No More Yoga Talk Here
Electronica
In the last month I have aquired: a new digital camera a new cell phone a new Ipod and it seems like these pieces of electronica are taking over my entire life. I love this these toys, I really do, but damn! They all need to be learned, and the learning of them is eating … Continue reading Electronica
Emily’s Birthday
I've been sitting here trying to find a good picture of Emily, my daughter, but it turns out I don't have a good picture of her on this computer. But in my mind? In my mind, I have a whole museum of pictures. Gallery after gallery of framed tableaus: Pictures of her in her bassinette, … Continue reading Emily’s Birthday
Aim Really High
I found this link today on Brian Johnson's FB update. It's only a little over 4 minutes. It's about striving for a goal that seems impossible. It inspired me today! http://www.ted.com/talks/viktor_frankl_youth_in_search_of_meaning.html
Pale, Fat, but Wise
Today was one of those rainy spring days--you know the ones: drippy, not especially cold, but dreary. I went to the polls and voted around 11 and was voter number 12 at my precinct. Yeah, 12. Can you say "light turnout?" I wrote in my man John Kesich who is dedicated to seeing that the … Continue reading Pale, Fat, but Wise
Getting “Schlitzered”
Took a great hike on Saturday on the Black Forest Trail with Tim and Jackie. The weather could not have been better and the company more inspiring. Tim and Jackie are so fit and athletic and run on batteries, I swear. Jackie got up and ran 13 miles before we even started hiking, and we … Continue reading Getting “Schlitzered”
