This morning I made a little video of the making my morning juice. The sound isn't great because the juicer is really loud, but if you're into watching veggies get pulverized, you're gonna love this. If not, not so much. Oh, and it's over 8 minutes long. Fun. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_jqfH9QjSE
100 Questions
I was in a kind of slump today, so I went casting around for inspiration among the bloggers I read regularly. I am way behind on my Philosophers Notes, so I picked one at random. It was the one on How to Think Like Leonardo DaVinci. Brian Johnson reads books and summarizes the big ideas … Continue reading 100 Questions
The Stupor Bowl
Okay, right off the bat, I don't watch football. It's not that I hate football or anything, I just can't sit down and watch a whole game of it. But in this house, Boomer is addicted to football, which is why we got her in the first place. When we were looking for a breed … Continue reading The Stupor Bowl
Wine
There is a glass of wine sitting here on the coffee table, waiting for me to finish this post. It's Jargon Pinot Noir, if you must know. It's Friday night and I just had a super Happy Hour Yoga class with all my right people. I just love it when my right people show up. … Continue reading Wine
Americano (with room for cream) or Latte?
In between all the other stuff I have going, I've been flipping through this book, Marathoning for Mortals, the book that Tim picked for us as a guide to marathon-prep. I had no intention of running anything (except maybe a hot bath) when I walked into that meeting last night, but after flipping through this … Continue reading Americano (with room for cream) or Latte?
Marathoning For Mortals
I don't like to run. I used to run, back in the 70s when it was all the rage. I started in graduate school. I ran to blow off steam. I lived on Codfish Falls Rd in Storrs, CT and ran in between bouts of reading The Life of Johnson. I think I was in … Continue reading Marathoning For Mortals
A Groundhog Day Meditation
(this was first published in Mountain Home Magazine) Every year when I flip the calendar from January to February and see “Groundhog Day” written in that little box under February 2nd, I crack up. I wonder what a space alien, coming upon our calendar, might think about this Groundhog Day holiday. What is commemorated on … Continue reading A Groundhog Day Meditation
The End Of The Cleanse
It's officially over. The Cleanse, that is. And I made it all the way through. 21 whole days. Here's how it ended. On Saturday night, after a liquid (Serious Green Juice) breakfast, and a liquid (Cream of Cauliflower soup) lunch, G and I decided to eat a (chewy) dinner out, and maybe have (gasp!) a … Continue reading The End Of The Cleanse
5 Things I Am Grateful For Today
Here are 5 things I am grateful for today. 1. My warm, cozy house, and especially my warm bedroom with it's soft mattress and heated mattress pad, and my Space Chair. 2. Tranquility Bubble Bath from Aura Cacia. 3. Gym Tim for making my weight workout so much fun and so inspiring. 4. My incredible … Continue reading 5 Things I Am Grateful For Today
Windowsill Goddesses
So today was a really low energy day. I think the Cleanse is getting to me. I got up and did Ashtanga with Christine and Cheryl at 6:30, came home and drank my Serious Green Juice and then fell asleep during Holosync (holo-snoozed it today). I really wanted coffee. I did 2 loads of wash, … Continue reading Windowsill Goddesses
