Some of my favorite summer things

June 14, 2017

The lazy days of summer are upon us. I got to thinking about the summer and how I love it. Here’s why I love summer: 1. Many hours of daylight. I am a morning person and I love to exercise in the morning. That being said, it sure is hard to get up at 4:30 […]

Nancy and Ken’s excellent New Jersey adventure

April 12, 2017

Yes, one can have a fun and excellent adventure in New Jersey. Mr. Ken and I were in the Garden State this past weekend for a family wedding. New Jersey holds a special place in my heart because a. I was born there and b. I first met Mr. Ken there. So the story of […]

Welcome to February

February 15, 2017

Here in New England, we have been lucky this winter. That is until last week, when a series of snowstorms started. Here’s how things looked on Thursday. These aren’t the clearest pictures, but there was no way I was going to stand outside and take pictures. These were all taken through the window. The frontyard. […]

Where there’s a will, there’s a way

December 14, 2016

Day by day my foot is getting better and healing. I am now able to hobble around without crutches and without much pain. I am still trying to be a model patient though and not overdo things. I am excited to report I have found a good setup in my exercise room. Note the cool […]

The aftermath

December 7, 2016

November 30, 2016

As my December 2 foot surgery looms, I am getting prepared for a long period of forced inactivity. As my doctor likes to say, “For the next several weeks, you will be living in a triangle consisting of the sofa, the bathroom and your bed.” For someone who loves to exercise for at least an […]

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

September 21, 2016

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 […]
