Move 2008 – week 29 update


I know, you are laughing thinking "what moving in Austin?" Let me tell you  - plenty! First of all I made sure to do my arm routine all three days I was at home and to walk each day at work twice a day. Then...oh the walking I have done here! Wed night I walked... Continue Reading →

Even more pictures – Al Gore in the house!


Apologies for being so picture heavy, but that is all I have the energy for at the moment. I suffered from some tummy upset last night (turns our rum is not my friend) so I am really wiped out at the moment. Thankfully the rumor went around that Nancy Pelosi was bringing a special guest..and... Continue Reading →

This Week In Politics – Netroots Nation Day 2!


Heh - had a pretty good built in topic this week huh? My pictures are fewer and a bit worse and we switched to a day full of panel discussions and I have not quite gotten the hang of this camera indoors. Especially under the lighting conditions presented in ball rooms and conference rooms and... Continue Reading →

Thursday photos


9:00am Street Prophets caucus run by Virgomusic (MissMusicNerd) and Brillig. Fabulous discussion about the role of the religious left, embracing all religions and atheists, how to counter the religious right movement and just how to be respectful of all. I was (as always) floored by the level of intelligent discussion and use of sophisticated vocabulary... Continue Reading →

It’s a Small World


See the couple at the head of the table? Sweet Prince and I met them in Nov '05 on our second Mexican cruise. I wore my DailyKos shirt to lunch one day and she spotted it and struck up a conversation. Turns out she's Bloomer101 on the site! And this year they made the trek... Continue Reading →

Ok, not really. I just set this to post when my plane takes off 🙂 Grilled Salmon - ok, broiled in my version. Some garlic dill butter with capers sprinkled on top at the very end. So this one took me all of 10 minutes. I added some peas and a crusty roll on which... Continue Reading →

One more time!


Of course this arrived in my in-box just after I finished that rambling nonsense below! HERE is the post for the day - THE picture of Admiral Von Schreiber which I just adored. It was his 'publicitiy' photo that they posted outside the auditorium the week of the play.I just love the look on his... Continue Reading →

Ack! I’m supposed to post!


Being in last day before travel mode, I did not prepare a post for today. I should have taken pictures and written about last night's dinner. No pictures, but it was Bahama Burgers. The ground beef and seasonings were provided - I had to mix them together and form 3 burger patties. Buns and pineapple... Continue Reading →

Happy Birthday!


You know what happens when your child is 23? You realize that you have taken very few pictures of them with your digital camera!! I need to scan some old ones in 😉 The one above is a few years old, but actually a pretty good representaiton of how he looks now anyway (hair is... Continue Reading →

Move 2008 – Week 28 and food for the baseball lover’s soul


A great week (finally!) when I met all my goals by Friday. Not only did I make it through an avg of 5-20 mins aerobic sessions, but I also increased my arm weight reps from 150 per routine to 180 during two of them. After 2 hours of yard work mostly trimming way overgrown shrubs... Continue Reading →
