I posted this in a previous email, but I thought it should have its own post instead of being part of a “litany” I did on the last day before surgery. 🙂 These are “selfies” or videos” that Moddie and I think we need to do for our 2nd video WHEN The Amazing Race folks […]

January 17 (Day 142) – I’m Baaaa-aaaack….
Yeah, I couldn’t help myself with that photo. LOL! I can’t believe it’s been 10 days since I last blogged. Okay – well, yes I can. I had the eye resurfacing done (I have some photos, will try to add when I have a bit more time on the computer). It went like this: Last […]
January 7 (Day 132) – Our “List” – PRK – et cetera
This is likely to be my last post for a while. I’m having PRK (it’s like LASIK for super duper bad eyes) on Thursday. The doctor told me at the “pre-op” that my eyes won’t be better “all at once” like LASIK. Rather, it happens gradually over about 10 days – and the pain is […]
Whoa – January 3nd (day 128), how’d THAT happen???
A few random things here: I went back to see what I wrote last year about “the new year” and all that “resolution” jazz, found these: Start 2013 fast, focused and fired up!!! Setting S.M.A.R.T. Goals Don’t Let People Who Don’t Matter, Matter, plus Steve Jobs’ 2005 Stanford Commencement video. There are some great things […]
Jason and Amy’s “journey” to The Amazing Race 2013
Yeah well this is frickin’ amazing . . . I was just noodling through YouTube, and came across this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5EEYgJYdkYc It’s made by Jason and Amy – who actually just WON The Amazing Race. It shows their journey – their initial 3 minute video (that they sent in the day before the deadline), and […]
So . . . did I talk about the “waterboarding” a/k/a Body Composition Analysis? And the Chippen-Fro-Ryan-Spice “How cookies are like men in your fridge” rant . . .
I think that I did. I think I already talked about this – but I’m back on it again. (Maybe because I was just telling my friend Francine about my experience, and it got me back thinking about it.) I was “waterboarded” in BodyFatTest.com’s Hydrostatic Body Fat Testing Apparatus (a/k/a “dunk tank truck”) on Saturday. […]
Day 112 (December 18) – Crossfit Rx – !!! – and more…
SO excited! Last night I did my first “Rx” in even a PART of a Crossfit WOD. The warmup included 3 minutes of jumping rope (really MUST start practicing that now that I have my super duper rope that’s of course still in the BAG), then pullups (did them with the black band – so […]
Day 110 (December 16 2013) – A new start…
I sooooo didn’t want to do this. Last night, I finally talked to my nutritionist about the blood tests I took a week or so ago. Any time that your nutritionist calls you again – and again – over the weekend, you know something is up. Sigh. I also did the “dunk tank” body composition […]
Day 106 – ‘Bucket List’
Today my best grrl Allison came over – she had to do some work, but I was folding laundry (OMG we are SO adults now huh?) – it was great to catch up at least a little. We both commented how when she lived in the CITY we saw each other more. It’s really really […]
Day 105 = 11 Dec 2013 (btw, 1kg = about 2.21 lbs.)
“so there” (laugh) As I’ve mentioned before, I keep messing up what “day” it is of my 365-TAR days. Not that that number or amount was something “sacrosanct,” but it is what got me started writing again, and so there you go. Now, I have a post “heading” that will help me “know where I […]
