Indulgences again
I'm not sure this list will be greatly different from last year but let's see.... My list of stuff to indulge in for 2008 to ensure my mood resembles the orange cat in this picture! 1. Live music and music generally 2. Pilates classes (I love them and therefore...
Indulging
For those paying attention, ooops. I wrote my last post on Christmas Eve but for some reason it didn't post, so I posted it last night but in my post turkey fest stupour, forgot to change the title. Hope you all had a fabulous celebration of whatever holiday you were...
‘Twas the night before Christmas
And all through the house The carpets were less soggy! : ) The jetblower thingy has been blowing and blowing. It is loud. Imagine being on a plane trip for over two days and not getting anywhere. But it seems to be helping dry things out. Not sure what happens next,...

Whoops

Biking on down the highway
So. The pants, they eez less cranky. Not completely uncranky but improved. Maybe the endorphins have helped after all. Exercise is weird. I enjoy it, I enjoy the feeling after doing it and yet, over and over again, I have the mental battle with myself to get started....
