Not only did I teeter on the verge of a cold all day, but my period started, and I had fiery back cramps and mild queasiness with it. I'm so ready to be over with the fertile phase of my life and into the amazing postmenopausal athlete phase. Gack. I didn't run today; I didn't even walk to the vet to pick up Raziel's stuff. I drove. A mile and ( Read more... ) -

Niki arrived on schedule around 9:30 tonight. We took her to the Hawthorne food carts and had crepes and fries. She is interested in going to OMSI After Dark tomorrow, so we might do that. Thursday there's an art exhibit that might be worth a look. If anything, there are more things to do than we will have time for. There's so much more going ( Read more... ) -

Well, the insomnia's better, but now I have a headache again. Had a productive day today anyway, but, ugh.
Here I am ready to go trick-or-treating:

Well, this week has been a mix. I got a (probably dehydration-related) headache a couple of days ago after another insomniac night . . . or maybe it was after the one I posted about, I don't remember. So the headache leads to not enough exercise, and that's no good. So tricky to stay in balance ( Read more... ) -

Well, after the big walk/photo shoot yesterday it was all domestic stuff. We went to Lowe's to buy stair mats for the front steps so I won't make another dent in my tuchus this winter. Then today more domestic hijinks ensued, including the purchase of more mats, assembly of cheap shelfery, purchase of more cheap shelfery, cleaning, laundry, ( Read more... ) -

I think tomorrow I'll be able to start working out again; it'll probably be yoga class, and painful, but not painful to my head, I hope. My headache was borderline tonight but I almost went to the gym anyway. I was all ready to go and then my stomach decided that it needed filling, so I finished the tasty eggplant I cooked last week. Then ( Read more... ) -
Garden notes
This is mostly for my personal reference, but read on if you like( vegetables! ) -

Haven't been posting, haven't been sending emails, oh, so many things have I not been doing. Between work, houseguests, and getting ready to leave town it was hard to decide whether to type a blow-by-blow of events or to reflect on and process them. I'm too tired to do either right now but that's an easy out, isn't it ( Read more... ) -

Apparently the high outside was around 103 today. I didn't go outside much. The basement was the only livable place in the house. It's not so livable with the washing machine on, but I guess I could move my chair and put a couple of walls of miscrap between me and the hideous noise. I am suffering from an ambition deficit at the moment, however ( Read more... ) -
This makes me sound really boring, but, well, OK. I'm boring.
Things I am excited about:
I got a new helmet for $10 on Saturday at the Multnomah County Bike Fair. It looks pretty much like this one except that it's now got a reflective Eye to Eye sticker (I believe annesi's firm was involved with the graphic design for that campaign) and a Heart in Oregon sticker, and is going to collect more (and more ( Read more... )
