A very dear friend sent me a box of special Peeps. They brought a big smile to my face. Little Peeps in a snowbank! Little Peeps in mud. And last, but not least, classic chick Peeps in a puddle. Spring is coming! So what is your favorite Peep this year? Photos of Peeps courtesy of […]

These past few weeks have been tough since my dear Mother passed away. In spite of the sadness, I try to find brightness in every day. Here is the story of my visit to the hospital with her. 1. The Emergency Room. I thought I was over being amazed at the 12 year doctors running […]

What on earth does the Serengeti have to do with anything? Well, believe it or not, there is a point to this. I just got the Serengeti Badge from my Fitbit! That means that I walked 500 miles, which I guess is the length of the Serengeti Desert. Although I am not sure that anyone […]

My favorite Christmas present was a Fitbit. I got the simplest model, the Fitbit Zip, but it suits me just fine. Of course, who am I kidding, eventually I will be getting the fancier models that even track your sleep. Note the cute little smiley face on the display. If the Fitbit is happy, then […]

I decided to do something a bit different this year. I decided to view the week between Christmas and New Year’s a real vacation. I used to love this week off when I was in school; you had the time to enjoy the Christmas presents and time to look forward to the New Year. We […]

One of the many reasons that I love what I am doing right now is that I get to travel frequently to Cambridge, my favorite city in Massachusetts. I take the train into South Station, Boston and then I walk all the way to Harvard Square. It takes me about 90 minutes. I thought you […]
