Okay, so my hip is only marginallly better. But that doesn’t mean I can’t be fit and strong. This was brought home to me during the recent blizzard, Nemo. All told, we got about 30 inches of snow. My dear husband’s snow blower wasn’t powerful enough to plow through this, so guess who was out […]

I personally have a love/hate relationship with technology. I love technology because: I’ve met some amazing people, who I wouldn’t have met otherwise. A special shout out to Bindu, Tony and Susan! I can workout where ever I want. Since I’ve been spending a lot of time over at my Mom’s, it’s wonderful that all […]

I have a new love. My dear husband doesn’t have to worry though, because it’s a store. I’m currently in love with Whole Foods. I still love Trader Joe’s, since they do tend to be cheaper. But, Whole Foods is a nicer store. Let’s be honest, Trader Joe’s has a funny smell. It’s not that […]
