It’s been – well, January was a month that kind of sucked, to be perfectly honest. However, the good news is that there’s no meniscus tear in my knee, I got my standing desk at work, and starting Monday, I have every Wednesday off. Yay! February is definitely looking up. I’ll post more later …

(personal/health) Pain
Posted on January 10, 2014
I’ve been quiet lately, and I’m sorry. I should have sent out at least one project to a friend (sorry, Sue!), and I really should have been writing. And editing. And formatting. I haven’t done anything this week except hunker down and try to ride the pain. Pain is something that I should …
(health/food) Slowly getting back to it
Posted on October 21, 2013
Cons screw me up – even when I go in trying to be healthy, I always seem to end up sick. Bleah. This last week has been super busy as well, so it’s no wonder I ended up with con-crud and all sorts of headaches. That’s why I went to bed early last night, with …
(food/personal) the smells of autumn and memory
Posted on September 30, 2013
My kitchen smelled like memories this past weekend. Apple kugel, cinnamon-raisin french toast drowning in maple syrup, roasted butternut squash, honey bbq chicken tenders. It’s amazing, how much smells can bring back memories of my parents’ and my grandparents’ kitchens, and it’s times like this that I wish I had kids to pass these smells …
(health/personal) Not letting the stress get the better of me
Posted on September 23, 2013
Part of the reason I write this page every week is to remind myself of what I’m trying to do. Yeah, I know, Yoda said to either do, or do not – there is no try, but honestly, I’m human, not a Jedi Master, and I have to try. Because more often than not lately, …
(writing) Not only an update, but musings
Posted on September 20, 2013
I’m still writing. As of today, I’ll have written for 138 days in a row. I haven’t missed a day, not even through Harper’s Retreat, or the ick that I was sick with, or anything else. I still wrote, even if it was only 250 words I still wrote. I showed up to the …
(health) Thoughts on stress
Posted on August 26, 2013
I’m under a lot of stress at the moment. I’ll be honest – it’s mostly self-inflicted. I’m autocratting (running, for those not familiar with SCA terms) a fairly large event Labor Day weekend called Harper’s Retreat, and the week before the event is always nerve-racking to me. There’s SO much that needs to be done, …
(health/personal) Dragging today.
Posted on August 19, 2013
Abused my system a little bit over the weekend (lots of gluten), and am feeling the effects today. Not really up for a post, but I’ll try later. Just letting you know I was alive.
(health/eating) Revelations
Posted on August 12, 2013
Not the book from the Bible, but my own personal revelations as I continue to work on my eating and exercise habits. I’m discovering that left to my own devices, I’ll eat pretty healthy, but there are some major roadblocks I still fall into: 1. Preplanning I suck at this. Actually, the part I suck …
