There is always a way

December 2, 2015

Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. And no, it’s not because of the food, but because of the emphasis on being thankful and being around family and friends. I am always reflective now too, since I have such happy memories of spending Thanksgiving with my Dad’s side of the family. They lived in Plymouth, which is […]

Do-si-do and away we go!

September 30, 2015

Here we are ready to embark on our square dancing adventure: Oh dear, I see we have turned into one of those couples that dresses alike and looks alike. 🙂 We arrive at the hall and Mr. Ken goes straight towards the refreshments to check them out. He comes back with a big smile on […]

Thoughts on the end of summer

September 23, 2015

I’m torn about summer coming to an end. On one hand, I will miss all the hours of daylight. I love getting up early – can we say 4 am?. By the time I’m done with my healthy breakfast at 5 am, it’s already getting light outside. On the other hand, this has been a […]

Yee haw!

Before I begin this week’s post, I’d like to start with a little story. Way back in the days of high school, I didn’t like gym. Hard to believe that an exercise fanatic like me didn’t like gym, but there you are. I think it was because: 1. The dorky gym uniforms. Can someone say […]

Hangin’ out with Google

August 19, 2015

Do you hang out? I don’t think I ever just hung out, even when I was a teenager. Unless you count quietly reading a book all afternoon. I could never see the point of just sitting and doing nothing, even if I was in the company of good friends. Google, which will soon take over […]

Kermit the Kayaker

July 15, 2015

As most of you know, I love kayaking. I love it more than Peeps or even chipmunks. There is nothing like being outside in the sunshine and enjoying nature. Being on the water is so soothing. That being said, I have to be really, really careful in the sun. I spent my teenage years baking […]

Add a little color to your life

May 27, 2015

I live in New England. We New Englanders aren’t known for our sense of color or style. Most of my wardrobe is black, grey or beige, with an occasional bright shirt thrown in for kicks. As most of you know, my latest fitness obsession, er interest, is walking routines from Jessica Smith. She films the […]

Peep time!

Yes my friends it’s  my favorite time of year – Peep time!  It is hard to improve upon perfection, but the Peeps folks have done this very thing! Can you believe it?  A cute teddy bear dressed as a bunny Peep!!!!  How cute is that.  As much as I have a sweet tooth and love […]

Change your schedule and change your life

They say, whoever “they” are, that changing your environment can do wonders for your psyche and creativity.  While I wish I could be sitting on a nice sunny beach with Mr. Ken, this is not possible right now.  I have been staying over my mother’s house, helping her out since she fell. It was kind […]

Mystery solved for What is it

I know you all have been sitting at the edge of your seats, wanting to know the answer to last week’s post, What is it? One answer could be these cute little boxes make perfect resting spots for Peeps. M&Ms also fit perfectly into them as well. Alas, these containers are part of Beachbody’s 21 […]
