Comments Off on Rocks under water

We are off to a good start with our kayaking this year. The weather has been great and the temperatures very comfortable.

So off I went to the dentist to get a filling fixed. The dentist is a talkative fellow. I guess he has to be so he can distract his patients from the torture, er discomfort of what he is doing. All of a sudden he stops talking and goes, “Mmmmm.” I have learned that when […]

We can’t control our lives. We can’t control what happens to us. What we CAN control is how we react to events. I am in the process of dealing with my health insurance company, my doctor’s office and the hospital. All I am trying to do is schedule a simple test. What should be a […]

One thing I have learned from living with a geek like Mr. Ken is that there is never an end to the new computer parts. I can’t complain though since I feel there is never an end to new exercise DVDs. 🙂 Mr. Ken’s latest “toy” is a backlit keyboard! One may ask why a […]
