I'm easily entertained. Easily delighted. And often get overly excited about the smallest things. This, as my loved ones I'm sure would attest, is both a good and bad thing. This evening as we were messing around with our phones and some new devices I picked up I had health on my mind. In a … Continue reading the more you know, iPhone health edition…
always listen to your fortune cookie…
I had a long day of travel on Friday, and at the end of it I was back home in Portland. But being gone for a week means there's still too much to do once you get back to home base. Once my parents picked me up from the airport and we picked up my … Continue reading always listen to your fortune cookie…
a picture is worth a thousand posts…
I went to Hawaii last week to meet my team and managed to wedge in a couple days of fun at the beginning. I don't have the words yet, so here's 39,000 words worth of pictures...
a time to yell at those damn kids, or not to…
I find that when I'm traveling for work, no matter how amazing the destination, I get a bit grumpy in the evening. And maybe a little withdrawn. And antisocial. And homesick for my people. When that happens I tend to wander off to my room, close the door, get ready for bed no matter the time, … Continue reading a time to yell at those damn kids, or not to…
a mother’s tale…
My life for the past few years has been a tale of the carefully redacted. There are those who share all and damn anyone who doesn't want to be written about - and I get that. It's your life too, get it out there. But something I said years ago has really stuck with me. The … Continue reading a mother’s tale…
once upon a time – or – dear santa…
Once upon a time (4 years ago) while at a giant chain store looking for something super important (I have no recollection of what that item may have been) we stumbled upon the sunglass section. There were hundreds of frames. Big. Small. Medium. Dull. Bright. Blue. Black. Yellow. Silver. Gold. Red. Purple. Rainbow. I'm sure … Continue reading once upon a time – or – dear santa…
35 minutes…
I'm not a new year's resolution kind of girl. I don't want to be a new year's resolution kind of girl. I like to think that if you know you should make a change in your life you should change it. Then and there. But as a time of reflection the new year makes sense. … Continue reading 35 minutes…
sorry, not sorry…
Instagram binge posting. It's a real thing. It's a real problem. It's something I've unfollowed people for. You know when you follow hundreds or thousands of folks and suddenly 10 images in a row are all from the same person? Amazing architecture. Awe inspiring nature. Blue skies and puffy clouds. Snowy mountains. Tropical beaches. Cute … Continue reading sorry, not sorry…
the long lost art of the coffee break…
Remember your first job? Way back in the days when you were younger. Perhaps more resilient. Maybe had less responsibility? My first job ever was as an "Appointment Setter" for a home security sales company. Yes, it's just as glamorous as you might imagine. I sat in a room with 5 to 20 other folks … Continue reading the long lost art of the coffee break…
once upon a healthy diet…
A healthy diet means different things to different people. For some it means a careful balance of food groups. For others it means keeping caloric intake in check. For some it's keeping their sodium intake down. Or sugars. For some it means cutting back on fat. Or cutting out animal based proteins. For me it means … Continue reading once upon a healthy diet…
