It's okay, I don't know what I'm doing either.
I've started taking new routes to work in the mornings. As I am directionally challenged, I depend on my trusty phone with its magical mapping apps to show me the quickest, if not the shortest course while taking the horrendous rush hour traffic into account. My favorite route is almost double the mileage of the... Continue Reading →
Not feeling quite so lame for hitting the snooze button and missing my run this morning because I just did it. Day 1 complete. I'm a hot sweating stinky mess of a girl right now. My training program called for 4 min running/1 min walking for a total of 45 min, plus warm up and... Continue Reading →
Have you ever stared into the eyes of a barred owl for any length of time? Its all blackness and wisdom and creepiness up in those eyes. I did that today, as well as watched someone hand feed grub worms to tiny chirping baby birds, saw a raccoon carcass laying on a table, observed at... Continue Reading →
This weekend was pretty fabulous. Well, for kiddo and I anyway. The Accountant had a migraine most of the weekend so I'm only speaking for 3/4s of the household here I guess. I took kiddo to a local pumpkin patch/farm place on Saturday. We discovered it last year and it is so great! Only 15... Continue Reading →
I'm trying to wrap up and gear up at the same time. As one who loves change and loathes sameness, this means I'm a happy girl right now. But it also means I'm behind as usual. I always seem to either catch up or the thing I need to catch up on goes away altogether... Continue Reading →
What is up? Mass craziness, that's what. Lets see...Fisher is out, Egypt has completely lost its mind and I can't get past Level 12 of Angry Birds. Some of my friends are going through tough times and I feel helpless. This week at work has been the most maddening yet and my potential new career seems to be... Continue Reading →
I was reminded by a post over at Chez Bez's place how cute I think The Accountant is when he shaves his head and grows his goatee. I'd post a picture but he hates that so I'll just embarrass him with words only. And maybe "cute" isn't the right word. More like sexy haut. Ok,... Continue Reading →
Mom emailed me this picture the other day of an owl that lives in their yard. I saw this majestic bird a couple of weeks ago as it flew from some perch and into a tree where it just sat there staring at us in that intimidating way an owl has about it. I've always... Continue Reading →
Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower. -Albert Camus I think autumn is the most beautiful season. Today I took a few minutes and sat on the damp ground amidst the crispy brown, yellow and orange leaves in my backyard. I decompressed and let the remains of a bad day fall... Continue Reading →
Check out these monsters we caught on our deck the other night!
These little guys were feasting on some spilled bird seed on our deck this morning.
