Wasted Days and Wasted Nights

Wednesday, April 25th, 2007

After getting up at around 4am three days in a row now I’m pretty tired.  By the time I get home from work in the evening I have no real energy or mental ability left so I can’t do much more than stare off into space until bed time.  I’m trying to keep myself on […]

What a Day!

Tuesday, April 24th, 2007

Today was a long and varied one.  My day started at 4:10am when I finally gave up trying to sleep and hopped into the shower to get ready for my “big” TV appearance (4 whole minutes on one of our local morning news programs).  Since this was a new experience for me I had no […]

Monday, Monday

Monday, April 23rd, 2007

Another week has started already after a somewhat-busy weekend. Last Friday evening, two of my daughters and I went to see Blue Oyster Cult at Lake Tahoe (we had a great time - and the band was excellent!). Saturday, I met with a couple with some of of my fellow Reno Film Festival […]

What Track?

Sunday, April 22nd, 2007

As usual, I’ve gotten so far from my planned exercise “track” that I can no longer see where I was going.  I’m  doing well in a dietary sense by avoiding flour and sugar a majority of the time, which is always good, but I’ve been pretty busy with unexpected things popping up in my life […]

The World in Which We Live…

Friday, April 20th, 2007

…is no more or less violent than in the past, as my hubby is fond of saying. Life is going on for most people in pretty much the same manner as it did for their ancestors. Our ever-increasing population just raises the statistical probability of certain physical and emotional traits and our ever-increasing […]

Another Weekend

Saturday, April 14th, 2007

As we left work yesterday, my boss commented that the week had gone quickly and I said I thought they all went pretty quickly and that I didn’t know where the time went.  I remember back in the dark ages of my childhood when time seemed to drag on so long that I thought events […]

Happy Easter

Sunday, April 8th, 2007

Greetings to everyone who celebrates the holiday in either the religious or non-religious sense. To me, Easter brings to mind memories of attending mass adorned in a new spring dress, shiny Mary Janes and white lacy socks, white gloves, a hat, and a little purse. My family would visit my grandparents later in the […]

Walkies!

Saturday, April 7th, 2007

Yesterday I actually walked to work and took a fifteen-minute walk break.  Okay, so that was only about 35 minutes total walking (maybe 45 with the walk back and forth to lunch), but at least I got out and exercised.  The walk to work was absolutely gorgeous; the sun was shining, the temperature was mild […]

Good Friday

Friday, April 6th, 2007

Though I never really felt I belonged to the religion into which I was baptised, I did attend services and catechism on occasion so I take note when a day like today comes up.   Good Friday to me today is actually more of a reminder that I lost both and uncle and a grandmother during […]

It’s Been Awhile

Monday, April 2nd, 2007

Okay, so I’m not keeping up very well here. Somehow I just keep getting busy and don’t think about doing the things I enjoy until I’m tucked into bed for the night - and the next morning those thoughts are gone.I spent another weekend on a cleaning binge so that the house […]
