I've been writing for a long time: diaries when I was a girl, journals when I was in college and beyond, and now still the journals and this blog. Today I went back to my first blog, one I made for a college class assignment. I wrote all the code, inserted graphics and pictures and … Continue reading “Yoga Could Save Me, If I’d Let It.”
The 1st Anniversary of This Blog
This is my 167th post on this blog. I mention this only because I just passed my 1st anniversary here. I had a slow start, for sure. I knew I wanted to do something with this blog that would express my particular take on the world, as well as track my daily search for inspiration. … Continue reading The 1st Anniversary of This Blog

Tiger Woods
I made it a point to turn on the TV this morning and watch Tiger Woods' first statement since his, (ahem) indiscretions. I expected him to admit he had made mistakes. I expected him to say he was sorry for hurting his wife, disappointing all the kids who looked up to him, and making a … Continue reading Tiger Woods
The Girl In The Picture
A friend of mine who has known me for a LONG time sent me some pictures he found in an old box. Pictures of me. Pictures of me taken over 30 years ago, when I was 25. I am still reeling from the shock of them. I hardly recognized myself. I kept staring at these … Continue reading The Girl In The Picture

Not a bad hurt, but I had to keep reminding myself to "allow" the muscle … Continue reading Massage

Weird Food Person
We got out of Dodge this weekend. Went up to Ithaca to have dinner with Zee, do a little food shopping at Green Star, and just play. It was fun, but you know what? I think I have become "a difficult food person." Because nothing I ate sat right with me. The Moosewood lunch was … Continue reading Weird Food Person
Running Shoes
I finally figured out why I stopped running 20 years ago. It was because of the shoes. It used to be that running shoes were cool. Then the regular person, the person not into running at all, found out how comfortable running shoes were for just general, all-purpose shlepping around, so you found gramdmas and … Continue reading Running Shoes
A Colorado Blue Sky Day in Pennsyltuckey
