I am thankful for having some this blog, as it holds me to some sort of standard, and sometimes, having some sort of standard can help one form going completely off the rails.
Valentine’s day
A great day for activity. A couple hours of snow shovelling. An hour of snow -shoeing. Jambalaya for supper. Mousse for dessert. Cold vino blanco. Recorded it all on livestrong.
Valentine’s
It said 29 inches on the measuring tape. The snow was that deep on the table on my deck. I measured it at the edge of the table for convenience but it was maybe a little more deep in the middle. Two hours of shovelling cleared the sidewalk, the path to the woodshed, the … Continue reading Valentine’s
Hoy…
gracias por duolingo y mi lecciones de espagnol! I also started the duolingo Russian lessons today. Maybe someday we will go on the Trans-Siberian Railway. I am grateful for this blizzard and the incredibly dramatic snowfall.

Today isn't much better. No Plexus today for the first time since September. Hmm..I have … Continue reading Off the rails…

I am simply trying to assess my own happiness after a year of attempting to focus on gratitude, rather than my characteristic cynicism. I am not trying to be deep, or poetic. I am … Continue reading Snow day
Folly
Well it was good day until the wine after supper. And the mixed nuts. And the cheese and crackers. And the dark chocolate. It was a good day after these things, but perhaps not in the context of sustained weight loss, at least on a day to day level. Maybe, however, these 'releases' are necessary … Continue reading Folly
