Only in Wisconsin…

…can it be 72 degrees on November 5, one degree short of the record, only to be expecting, based on the forecast, 40 degrees for a high and snow by November 8. It really sucks when you know that today is the last nice day we’ll probably see until April or May! But we’ve enjoyed […]

I say it’s my birthday

Happy birthday to me! The day is drawing to a close, and I have to say, it’s been a pretty good one.

I started my day with a run, which took a little motivation, but felt good in the long run. It was all part of my strategic plan (more later). The morning prep went […]

Running for a cause

This morning, my friend, Steph, and I ran the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure. We did the untimed 5K, so there wasn’t any pressure. We started on the Summerfest grounds and ran to Veterans Park along the lakefront. It was a cool morning, and overcast, but it was perfect for running. The time […]

Where’s Dylan?

I just got done watching the new “90210” on my DVR. Is it weird that I’m totally into it, and I can’t wait until next Tuesday?

But I miss Dylan and Steve and Janet and David…not so much Donna. It’s nice to be back in the old zip code!

I did it!

I made it through a whole month of NaBloPoMo! Some of my posts left a lot to be desired, but I wrote a post every day for the whole month. And it was a month with 31 days! Yeah me!

But now I think it’s time for a little break. I won’t be gone completely. […]

Photo class

I just got back from my first Intro to Photography class. I enrolled for this class through WCTC (Waukesha County Technical College), and then realized it’s a 3 credit class! Yep, I have tests. FOUR of them! And I have a portfolio that will be due at the end of the semester.

There were a […]

Too hungry!

Just got my spinach salad at Gordon Biersch, and my fingers are shaky as I type on my brother’s iPhone. I’ve gotta eat. More later!

We made it!

I’m here in San Jose, sitting on my brother and sister-in-law’s couch in their awesome house, blogging. I’ve had the chance to try Guitar Hero-I need a little practice, after getting booed off the stage my first time around. But the second time I tried, after a practice round, I got 4 stars on “Hit […]

Um, no thanks

“A 27-year-old Egyptian woman gave birth to septuplets early Saturday in the coastal city of Alexandria, family members and the hospital director said…The newborns, four boys and three girls, weigh between 3.2 pounds and 6.17 pounds and are in stable condition…[The doctor] said [the mother], who already has three daughters, took fertility drugs in an […]

Before and after

For about 2 years now, I’ve been growing my hair to donate to Locks of Love.*** I saw Ann Curry do it on the Today show (when Katie Couric was still on it!) and decided it looked easy enough. I thought it may take 6 months to a year, so how hard could it be? […]
