Cool weather is upon us

November 16, 2016

Sadly, it was time to put our kayaks away. We had a bit of a conundrum this year, since we now have to store four kayaks where we used to store only two. The other two had been kept over at my Mom’s house in her garage. But leave it to Mr. Ken to come […]

Reflections on an early morning walk

October 12, 2016

As most of you know, I am a morning person. There is nothing I love better than to get up early and do my exercise before the my day gets started. As I look ahead to foot surgery in December, I want to get the most I can out of moving and walking while I […]

Mystery object revealed

My first attempt at taking a picture of the “real” object. Can we say, “oops?” I guess I will never make a living as a photographer. Here it is. You may still not know what it is, so I shall tell you. It’s a little barre ball. A what???? It’s a small ball that can […]

What do you think?  A word to some of my friends  (and you know who you are) – you will know immediately what this is.

Healthy herb adventures

I suffer from periodic bouts of gastritis. And as much as I like natural stuff, I’m all for taking a pill to make things better. Except, as with most medicines, the cure can kill you as much as the ailment. So I have been on a quest to find a more natural way to heal. […]

So here’s a picture diary of how I spent my weekend. Enjoy! 🙂 1. Gift time. Mr. Ken was in Charleston, South Carolina visiting family. He returned bearing gifts. This is just what everyone wants and needs – a bandana with cows and sport balls. Who says that Mr. Ken isn’t a romantic? FYI – […]

What gnats can teach us about life

August 3, 2016

Yes, you read that correctly – gnats. As my energy has slowly returned, I am on a mission to mix up my exercise routine. I decided to use my MP3 player and walk to music. I have several aerobic routines that were recorded by Sean O’Malley. (RIP – dear Sean, he has since left this […]

Vacation can be a state of mind

July 27, 2016

We all have choices on how we view a situation. Since this spring was a super busy one for me, we didn’t get a chance to plan a summer vacation. There are several ways I could see this: 1. I could be really depressed and upset that I didn’t get away for the summer. 2. […]

It’s all about the kayaking

July 13, 2016

I can finally breathe a sigh of relief. I thought I would be more emotional about it, but I feel as though a great weight has been lifted. Now, I can focus on enjoying the summer. And that means kayaking! No big insights this week – I’m more tired than I thought I would be […]

April 20, 2016

Earlier this month, it was my dear husband’s birthday. Since he has recently been on a walking kick (what better way to work off all those donuts!), I thought I would encourage this healthy new habit by getting him a fitbit as a present. Here’s the story of Mr. Ken and his latest toy. 1. […]
