I have managed to tear my poor abused Achilles away from my soleus yesterday during an absolutely lovely jog. I was about 40 minutes into my workout and quite warmed up, blissing on the turquoise seas and ready response of my body to the demands I was making. For some reason I am really . . . → Read More: pop goes the tendon Theresa made me do it…bold I’ve done, italics I want to do… 1. Started my own blog 2. Slept under the stars 3. Played in a band (I’m pretty sure I did, but it is also entirely possible I didn’t) 4. Visited Hawaii 5. Watched a meteor shower (I hope the aurora comes up . . . → Read More: Here we go… I think I had the kind of day that most moms dream of. And for me, I hated it. The kids were gone All Day Long over with their friends, stopping by occasionally to deliver chaos and destruction, and now, at 9:49pm they seem to have come home for the day. We had no . . . → Read More: a no good very bad day I just got back from Merida today.

Celsius would be good. Farheneit, not so good. We’ll head to Merida once we get . . . → Read More: fly like a birdie Or maybe we’re vacationing on Mexican time. For some weird reason we’ve got 2 days (counting today!) left and still have a LONG list of stuff to get done. Some stuff quite simply will Not get done. Never even got to the storage unit, let alone cleaning it out. I think we were too . . . → Read More: Life keeps getting in the way of our vacation This happens each year so I don’t know why I’m surprised. We are all wickedly sick. Chest cough stuff or head cold stuff or whatever the flavor of the month is, I honestly don’t know. Our immune systems are at a serious disadvantage after all our Mexican sun and never a flu season so . . . → Read More: the best laid plans I had a decidedly non-culture shock return to the US. We were greeted at the airport by family and friends; the same friends as last year, so that was comfortable and known. I managed to get a bottle of Havana Club smuggled through customs so that was sweet. And I now much prefer the . . . → Read More: quickie from the land of milk and hunney |
