Coming home after a long trip is always nice…except when you have to be at work in 10 hours, you forgot to take out the trash before leaving for 5 days, and there isn’t a crumb of food in the house.  Welcome to home sweet disaster zone! 😉 Looks like I’ve got quite a few […]

On the downside, my scheduled 4 mile run was rained out. On the upside, bad weather eases my end-of-vacation blues and makes spending the entire day traveling a little more tolerable. I had plenty of time to pack up, drink the last of the kombucha, and squeeze in a little Polarity Therapy pampering before leaving […]

My last day in Seattle can be summed up by two words: Food & Fun. The original plan was a day long hike, but after spending the past several days on the go we opted for a more leisurely approach to sight seeing. Judging by today, eating lots of food is included in that approach. […]

Isaac and I opted to stay on dry land this afternoon while his parents went sailing, but we found ways to entertain ourselves. Apple trees! The big apple. Adam’s apple Apple of my eye Caution: yogis at play. Side plank… Fail! But, two planks are better than one. A warrior… …and his dancer. ********************************** Dinner plans […]

Seeing the view from my window this morning, I wondered if I was still in Kansas. A 2.5-mile run and dose of This American Life helped to rid me of my morning grumpiness and before I knew it, the sun scared away the gray and I was over the rainbow! We walked the Burke-Gilman Trail […]

The morning and afternoon’s activities wore me out and I wasn’t alone. Isaac played Words With Friends ( this game!) then took a snooze while I blogged. This is Isaac’s mother, Diane. She is in school to become a Naturopathic Doctor….pretty cool, huh? Her knowledge of all things health related is amazing. The conversations we’ve had […]
