One Unbelievable Read
Tweet At work we’ve been listening to (not really reading. My bosses would frown on us reading instead of working) Born to Run: A Hidden Tribe, Super Athletes, and the Greatest Race the World has Never Seen by Christopher McDougall. This book is fascinating. Since I’m training for the Seattle Half Marathon it seemed appropriate [...]

I've been attacked by sudoku
Tweet It’s my latest addiction. It’s so frustrating but it’s actually a great stress reliever. I tend to do a few when I get home from work. And I’ve been doing a lot of reading. I’ve gone thru 3 books in a couple of weeks. I’m going to have to do thru all my books [...]
The best end to a day… maybe, ever
Tweet The work day today seemed exceptionally long. Maybe because I’m a bit overworked and it’s been rather warm around these parts. So I decided to leave at a normal time and go for a swim before our potluck dinner with the training group. The lake temperature was perfect. I wanted to swim a half [...]
Did someone say pie?

The plants are taking over!

A crap free day!
Tweet Today was a crap free day – both literally and figuratively. Not a whole lot went on today. One of the things that I like about my job is that I’m left alone most of the time. I suppose that could drive people crazy, not having anyone else around but I enjoy it. And [...]
What a weekend!
Tweet It’s been a beautiful weekend. The weather has been incredible and I’ve gotten a lot done. I started on friday with a trip to my favorite bookstore – Half Price Books. They were having a sale 20% off everything. So I grabbed 2 books (Yarn Harlot by Stephanie Pearl-McPhee and And Only to Deceive [...]
