If only I lived somewhere else…

Submitted entry: The time has come - I’ve put off packing up the Albuquerque apartment long enough as if not doing it will make the need to do it go away. No, I’m not changing my mind and wishing I could stay in Albuquerque. At the same time, though, there’s a part […]

Packing

Submitted entry: I’m definitely getting in to the swing of packing now. You can tell by the fact that I’m sitting in front of the computer drinking coffee and writing an entry.

Yesterday, though, I was really good I spent the better part of the day packing and cleaning the Albuquerque apartment. […]

O Canada

Submitted entry: Well, for those of you who have missed the obvious hints [Sage adds and for those of you who have been patient in a saintlike way with my all-consuming crush on Canada] it’s official. Sage, Paul, the cats and I are pulling up stakes and in about four weeks (Shit. […]

Submitted entry: Wouldn’t you know it. I joined a health club and had my first visit there yesterday evening. The visit started with a complimentary visit with a personal trainer who assessed my goals and what I needed to do to manage them.

The Transition Monster

Submitted entry: Because of an allergy treatment Sage got yesterday afternoon, my coffee, laptop, and I have been banished to Starbucks. For a moment I entertained the thought of just going in early and having my coffee on the way but I’m not allowed to have coffee at my desk (horrors!).

Dr. Fabulous strikes again

Submitted entry: This time I get some dental work done…
All my adult life my teeth have been crowded. Right behind my my two front teeth were the two teeth that were supposed to be right next to them. The crowding made eating difficult and cleaning next to impossible which played a […]

What’s new with me…

Submitted entry: Seems like it has been forever since I’ve written an entry and rather than catch everyone up on everything that has happened for the past several months, I’ll just tell about a few major things and jump right back to the present.
First off the biggest change, if you hadn’t already […]
