Sitting in the Marriott in Shelton, CT this morning getting ready to go to a Bar Mitzvah. There are no words to describe how much I hate these things. I just opened my Reverb10 prompt and the question is: How did I cultivate a sense of wonder in my life this year? And you know … Continue reading Reverb10–Wonder

Accentuating The Postive. Eliminating The Negative
Today's Reverb10 prompt is: what do you do each day that doesn't contribute to your writing --and can you eliminate it. Of course the answer is: All my internet addictions: facebook, twitter, email, blog reading. Sometimes I tell myself that the blog reading in particular gets my juices going, gets my mind thinking in bloggy … Continue reading Accentuating The Postive. Eliminating The Negative
Reverb10 – Day 1: One Word
I have decided to join a blog challenge for this month. It's called Reverb10 and everyday the organizers throw out a prompt and all the bloggers who join write on that subject. This is really good for me because it's hard to come up with content every day. Plus, I really love the challenge of … Continue reading Reverb10 – Day 1: One Word
The Tao of Weights
New equipment at the gym! They replaced all the old Precor stuff with Hoist! So exciting! And best of all, this Hoist stuff moves as you push it, and press it, and pull on it, which makes it almost, (but not entirely,) amusing. It was good to get back to it today, I must say. … Continue reading The Tao of Weights
Picking Up The Ball
The longer the ball stays on the ground, the heavier it gets. Ever noticed that? One day of not posting grows into 2, then a week, then the whole month skitters by annnnnd ...there you have it. Fumble. An object in motion stays in motion, but an object at rest will stay at rest until … Continue reading Picking Up The Ball
Kitchen Cabinet Project pics
So this won't be a "talky" kind of post, but rather a "picturey" kind of post. Pictures of cabinets. oooohhhh ahhhhh thrilling! It was my first do-it-yourselfy thing and it turned out all right. Nothing went wrong. Everyone involved is still on friendly terms. There were no trips to the ER--which is my definition of … Continue reading Kitchen Cabinet Project pics
Cats and Dogs
This is going to be a post about dogs. 1. Dogs are not cats. 2. What a dog needs and what a cat needs are as different as the dogs and cats themselves. Some people are strictly dog people and some people are strictly cat people and some people are both. Even if you do … Continue reading Cats and Dogs
D.I.Y.
Today I fell in love with a mouse sander. I hate mice, but this cool little sander fit both my hand and my love of detail work. I have never been a D.I.Y person (though I love watching those D.I.Y shows on HGTV.) It's just that it looks hard, and like something I don't have … Continue reading D.I.Y.
Homecoming ’10
It was a busy and beautiful weekend: Homecoming with a houseful of people, then on Sunday, the Ives Run Trail Challenge. Could not have asked for better weather. But it was the people who made it. So much fun! So much food and remembering of the "good ol' days." And soo00 much beer! HOLY MILLER … Continue reading Homecoming ’10
Friday Gratitude
Yet another installment of Friday Gratitude, and this week there is LOTS to be grateful for beginning with: Still being ambulatory after a week with Yoganand. Headstand and Scorpion and Side Crow...oh my! "What doesn't kill you, makes you strong" --and Karen Meyer calling "Bullshit" on that theory in class to tonight. Hilarious! Go Karen! … Continue reading Friday Gratitude
