In which many exciting changes — a move, a job change, and not one but two opportunities for travel — are afoot! The lease is up here, and while this apartment has some incredible amenities — such as southern exposure, a gas range, amazing cross-ventilation, and a wonderful view of a park with a pond […]
In which I’ve been tracking what I eat. According to the BMR Calculator, to maintain my weight I should be eating 1,920 calories per day. To lose a pound a week, it should be 1,420. Out of curiosity, without doing any kind of dieting except avoiding white bread, I tracked what I ate this week. […]
In which there are instructions! Step 1: Don’t have mint tea for, like, a few years. Not because you’re against it or anything, but just because you don’t happen to. Step 2: Move to Minnesota and catch a cold. Step 3: Wait a week and buy a box of mint tea. Stick it in the […]
In which it was eerily quiet. We stepped out onto the back porch of our building for a smoke. “Wow,” he said. “You hear that? So quiet.” We listened. Absolutely no traffic, none. All the lights on the other side of the park were green. No traffic on the streets, no traffic on the interstate […]
In which it’s Friday for most, but Saturday for me. I slept until noon, because today is my day off. As I was slowly drifting awake, I planned my day. Here’s what happened. Intention: Get up, pee, do yoga. Make tea. Make the bed. Dress. Sit and meditate. Sort the laundry. Then have a spa […]
In which it fucking snowed. Fucking SNOW. And frozen ponds and sub-freezing temperatures. It’s not even Thanksgiving! WHAT HAVE I DONE.
In which there are pictures. On Friday I worked for 6 hours and got a flu shot. Then I ate this adorable lunch. On the way home, I stopped and bought these flowers to go along with the orange lights and pumpkin that my beloved had already brought home. Autumnal! When Scott got home after […]
In which I have rejoined the regular people. Once upon a time, I was married. My spouse, who said, “You don’t have to worry about money. We can always get more money,” and whom I believed, talked me into quitting my job. And then he quit working himself, so we lived on my credit cards […]
In which it really doesn’t matter where you go, because there you are. Recently, maybe within the past couple of years, the Inner Guru appeared. Or maybe, to put it another way, I became capable of delving into mySelf enough to hear what the seers tell us has always been there. Or by the Guru’s […]
In which there’s a snack orgy for Sunday dinner. I worked all weekend, of course, because nobody gives a shit that I MOVED TWO THOUSAND MILES TO HANG OUT WITH THE GUY I LIVE WITH AND NOT TO WORK AT THE FUCKING HOME DEPOT. Working evenings and weekends sucks. Yesterday evening my beloved came to […]
