Actually her questions are very nice, I just had to come up with a relatively witty title and I’m kinda sleepy this morning. Here’s my answers to Natalie’s reciprocal questions. Kirsten: 1. So update us on your New Year’s resolutions that you posted in January. How are you doing with them so far?n What? I…

Well, I did take the weekend off, but I’ve been to martial arts every day this week. Haven’t done much running… I did run a mile on Monday before class… but I feel like I’m doing a good job of working out. I wish the kids didn’t have tomorrow off, I’d like to go down…

OK, here’s the questions for the brave souls who volunteered to be interviewed. Remember, post the questions and answers on your own blog and then, you know, you’ll get other people to interview. It’s harder than it looks! I hope you all like your questions 🙂 Terby n n What kind of science do you…

I found this over at Three Olive Martini and figured it was a good way to avoid talking about the Sockapalooza sock. Below is the description of what is going on along with the questions and answers. First let’s get the description out of the way. Here are the rules for this Blog-a-thon. I’ll offer…

And now for something completely different… I know you’re all waiting on pins and needles to see the finished sockapalooza sock but it’s not done yet, so I thought I’d do a commercial break for my mom. She’s a fabulous artist who has a piece in the Healdsburg “Sitting Pretty” fundraiser/auction tomorrow night, so if…

My darned blog template only looks lovely when I actually, you know, *post* every now and then. How rude! Well, that’s ok. I have stuff to show. I wanted to finish my first sockapalooza sock before I posted and I’m getting close. Look! It looked even better on my daughter’s foot, her foot is much…

Wow, I am a super-flaky fitness blogger. It looks like I haven’t done anything, and yet I have! Last week, I went to martial arts Tuesday and Wednesday, and then had belt testing on Thursday which was pretty intense. Then I sat around like a big old slug for F/S/S (was going to run with…

I would hope that with a long weekend I’d get lots of time to knit. Hah! I seem to have contracted an annoying cold so I had lots of time to sleep, instead. Oh well. I did get my hair straightened on Thursday, it’s pretty darned cute now. You can see my previous funky hair…

Short run yesterday – ran 2 miles on the treadmill and discovered that at 4.5 mph my legs get tired before my heart rate goes above 165. This is very cool, because that’s what I’ve been looking for. No, 4.5 mph is not very fast. But now I can start really training my *legs* instead…

Odds and Ends #1: I fear I have been a horribly ungrateful Secret Pal recipient. When I detailed the niftiness that was my Secret Pal Package I neglected possibly the coolest thing – some adorable stitch markers made, I believe, from earrings. She even mentioned them in her helpful note but being the airhead I…
