I am an East Coast expatriate hiding out in the Midwest...

I am an urban gal living in the suburbs and occasionally hiding in the country

I am a yoga practitioner, fitness enthusiast, believer in the mind-body-spirit connection...

I am a mid-life "revert" to the Roman Catholic faith in which I was raised and which has become an enormous source of support, encouragement, inspiration, and joy in my life...

I am a mom, sister, daughter, and wife...

I am an explorer; adventurous and curious about the world and people around me...

I am educated in the formal sense but I gain insight through everyday living...

I created this blog at a time of great fear and apprehension in my life. I chose to sustain it because of the discoveries about myself and the world around me that it has revealed.



What you can expect to find here:
  • the documentation of a love-hate relationship with the greater Philadelphia area
  • reminiscing about the good-ole-days (the 80's!)
  • complaints about my various ailments and injuries, both real and imagined
  • pictures and stories of gardening, decorating, shopping, sewing
  • my love of irony
  • links to kooky news stories
  • way too much scatological musing for sane people

    Wow

    Hmm, that liquids-only (tea, water) "fast" yesterday really DID help my cold; just a bit of sinus congestion but it feels like its out of my chest and throat. Its a  small victory for my white blood cells! Hooray!

    That means...minimum 4 miles on the treadmill today!


    Post script: 4.51 miles, to be exact *wink*

    I have heard that fasting is a healthy thing to do occassionally, but I've never done it. I've also heard that it's good to indulge yourself once in a while too - as long as you don't go totally over the edge!

    Sounds like you managed to do both just fine. Why bother with "lite" ice cream? All or nothing, I say!

    Look out, treadmill!
