Walked this morning.  Saw two doe.  One failed her Jumping Fences roll.  Which is good, because the drop into the dry Canal on the other side of that fence would have snapped her front legs like kindling.  Luckily the car coming around the bend saw her and she made it across the road.  Her friend practically walked it because all danger was gone by ( Read more... )

I'm thinking about talking about some new things on LJ. They're kinda personal, but not too personal, so I probably won't friends-lock or filter anything. It's mostly about organization: organization of my finances, organization of my stuff, organization of my eating habits and exercise regimen, organization of my thoughts ( Read more... )

Well, we survived Irene and then Lee. No damage to our house. Some water in the basement but no more than a regular rainstorm. Traffic is light this morning because Rt 611 just North and just South of us is closed. Lots is messed up. We were lucky again ( Read more... )

Bob's been gone one full week as of this morning. And he'll get back sometime next Saturday. So I have one more week to get the house straighted out like I want it ( Read more... )

Got in about 60 seconds of meditation/depp breathing and one sun salutation before the whimpering from downstairs demotivated me. It's hard to focus when you're worried about what a 14-year-old greyhound will do to your rugs. But everyone was healthy and good and I brought two boxes of books in from the summer kitchen. That was exercise ( Read more... )

Well... it's not looking cleaned out at all. I have a pile of clothing in the hallway large enough to lose a medium-sized child in, and yet the dressing room looks just as full as it was before. Hmmm ( Read more... )

You know what's worse than realising there's no point keeping a lot of the stuff in your closet because you're not remotely that size anymore?

Realising that there's no point in keeping a lot of the stuff in your closet because you're not that age anymore ( Read more... )
