And just like that, it's Friday again!  It's been a lovely week.  Um, not necessarily a big step week or a low carb/sugar week, but a lovely week in lots of other ways.   I took myself to the chiropractor.  I took my time doing some tasks and did them with thought and care. I finished … Continue reading FFF- 11-9

I watched a really fun - webinar, I guess it was.  Or meeting.  Or something.  Whatever you call it, it was an on-line event, and lots of fun.  All about claiming your magic, or getting your magic back, or some such. I am all about getting my magic back now, and feeling really hopeful about … Continue reading Energy Clearing

Welcome to my health and fitness blog, only more like my non-health and non-fitness blog.  I'm averaging 5,200 steps/day, which is an improvement on last week - but that's a low bar.  My weight is back up a bit - I'm hitting between 155 and 157, which is heading in the wrong direction. So drat … Continue reading FFF – 11-2

So much loveliness. First, there was date night. A glass of wine and appetizers on a rooftop bar overlooking the river. Then dinner with some of my favorite actually low-carb food. We had such a good time, and were so late getting back to the house that everyone was in bed. It was the perfect … Continue reading The Weekend

Look at this loveliness!  Coffee and beignets in New Orleans!   With a little jazz on the side. Sometimes, life is just good!  

i almost didn't go to the ocean today. It looked like rain. I was tired. I had a lot to do. Thank goodness, i went anyhow. I got to see the many faces of the sky, the amazing variety of cloud formations. And the ocean today was fierce.  Waves roaring up...   Rushing in... Swirling … Continue reading Mother Ocean

Still warm, but definitely wet. With a hint of chill almost in the air. Of course I never believe it’s actually going to rain unless it actually is, so I came to the beach this morning anyhow. Looks like it might let up enough to go for a walk. Either way, I’m just glad that … Continue reading Fall at the Beach

I'm not sure what meaning to find in the beginning of fall here in the south.  Ok, not the deepest south, but still.  Pretty far south in the US. It's not getting cold.  A bit cooler, i suppose, but not cold, and unlike 'nilla from Vanillamom, i would not be thrilled to feel a chill … Continue reading Autumn Equinox & Letting Go

I’m taking a couple of days off to myself this week. Staying at a wonderful retreat center on the river. Here’s the sunrise. Last night, I had turned off all the lights and was lying in bed playing with my massager. Suddenly, the kitchen light came on. Yes, out of the blue, kitchen light was … Continue reading On Retreat
