Blue Moon
Thursday, May 31st, 2007Tonight will be our second full moon this month, a blue moon, though I read that this is a mistaken belief that has come about in modern times. The true meaning of blue moon is supposedly the occurrence of a fourth full moon over the course of a season. According to Wikipedia, the blue […]
Wednesday Already
Wednesday, May 30th, 2007Since this past Monday was a holiday, we’ve reached the mid-point of the work week after just one day. Next week, hubby and I are both off to celebrate our anniversary, and I’m looking forward to the long break together. We don’t normally take vacations and whenever I take time off I seem to be […]
Back in the Saddle
Tuesday, May 29th, 2007Yesterday, I went out for about a 45-minute walk and I was reminded of why I should never “take a break” from exercising. I felt pretty miserable when I got back: my hands and feet were swollen and I felt exhausted and overheated even though I didn’t go far.

Keith Richards played the father of Johnny Depp’s Captain Jack Sparrow - […]
Wacky Week
Saturday, May 26th, 2007Monday morning started with me finding a newspaper clipping on my desk and several messages in my work e-mail inbox. The article that was written about me for the local insert to our neighboring city’s bigger newspaper actually ran in the Sunday edition of that paper (the Reno Gazette-Journal) and this started what turned out […]
Time Marches On
Saturday, May 19th, 2007Nothing incredibly interesting has happened in the last couple weeks after all the excitement of the prior month. The newspaper article about me being included in the magazine article finally ran (three weeks after the interview) and the June issue of Redbook is now on the racks so the time has come to move […]
