I have to write this down immediately. It might be choppy, and I may flesh it out further later, but it’s one of the most moving things that’s ever happened to me in my whole life. This happen...
This Journey Continues in These Foolish Things
Restful-ish weekend, which was nice. CD and I tried to get together for a walk on Saturday morning, but it rained like a mutha, so we postponed it for a lunchtime walk. We walked over to the fa...
Twinges in These Foolish Things
Really busy day at office yesterday - lots of moving of product (I’m not supposed to lift anything over 10 lbs, so lots of lightweight back and forth), down to the factory that’s 15 minutes away ...
Not Myself in These Foolish Things
Went out with CD again on Thursday evening. He’s been so patient with me and my injury situation as we haven’t been having very exciting dates. He came down to my hood and we walked to get some d...
Sushi Dinner and The Doc Returns in These Foolish Things
Last night’s date with CD was just about everything I wanted it to be. I looked cute. I left work right on time so I could work on it, knowing I go home from work looking extra tired and downtro...
Bad vs. Good in These Foolish Things
The weekend was nice and relaxing and that’s what I needed. Lots of walking on the trail and taking things very, very slowly. Ended the weekend with my whole family coming to visit me at the last...
Sick in These Foolish Things
…of talking and thinking about it. I’m so tired of my injury and subsequent illness and everything that is surrounding it. But I must think about it and monitor myself and keep pushing through. ...
Slow Your Roll, Sister. in These Foolish Things
You know, all of this talk of winning the lottery and being the luckiest person alive may have been a little premature. Because after I wrote all that stuff, I had a little…experience at work. ...
On Winning the Lottery in These Foolish Things
I am back in the office today, settling in to what I hope is a “normal” routine for a while. I never thought I’d say this, but I’m really happy to be back here. Everyone’s been so welcoming and...
RAD: CD in These Foolish Things
It occurs to me that amidst this chaos, I never did my RAD of the date that I had while I was injured and in the unbelievably dangerous stroke zone and didn’t even know it!!! Remember, this was ...
Strangulation Dream in These Foolish Things
Clearly related to what’s going on with me, I just wanted to write down this very quick but vivid dream I had this morning…by the way, my dreams are so vivid since this happened - it’s really wil...
It's April Now. in These Foolish Things
A blissful weekend that was all too short! I could have used five more days of what I had over the weekend. And truthfully, it wasn’t all that much - working out, walking with the dog, cleaning ...
End of Workweek. in These Foolish Things
Happy Friday, all. Last of the workweek and got a LOT accomplished. Still much to do, as always, but I’m winding down towards five o’clock. I have zero plans for the weekend. No dinners at Dr....
Odd Jobs in These Foolish Things
Oh, here’s more stuff I’ve forgotten to write down in the last week or so. My dream job was posted at my former company a couple of weeks ago - did I tell you this? THIS is the job I have been w...
That's Why We Love You! in These Foolish Things
ODD/CRAZY things that have happened in the last day or so: Just finished a meeting with Boss. I be-bopped into his office full of happiness just because that’s how I roll. He noticed my attit...
Sparkless in These Foolish Things
Was in bed earlyish on Friday after taking myself to dinner at this new Mexican joint with the dog. I had ceviche and a whole bunch of chips and ONE big glass of bubbles. The weather was gorgeous...
Show's Over in These Foolish Things
Hello! I’m home from my trade show! It was a fast and furious week as this week tends to be every year, and I’m relieved and sad at the same time - and there’s always so much follow up afterwar...
Epic St. Pat's Weekend in These Foolish Things
Wow. What a weekend. It nearly wiped me out! Started Saturday with a St. Patrick’s Day 5K. As I wrote earlier, it was the first 5K race I’ve run in 30 years! I went into this with the idea that ...
This Entry Sounds SO Superficial - Bullets in These Foolish Things
Work’s gotten super busy - next week is the big trade show and luckily I feel 100% ready for that. The big deal is that I found out YESTERDAY that a very important customer will be here at our o...
Addendum: Stuff I Forgot to Write in These Foolish Things
So funny. I wrote yesterday’s RAD after three mimosas and a power nap! Today, after having a semi-night’s sleep (Daylight Savings + 4:30am workout) and some reflection, I realize I left a few s...
RAD: Chef K. in These Foolish Things
Name: Chef K. Introduction Platform: A mutual friend set us up - which is kind of funny in and of itself because it was actually kind of a joke that I even asked about Chef K. at the Oscars pa...
While the Cat's Away... in These Foolish Things
All execs are out of the office at an offsite strategy session today and so I didn’t arrive to any emergencies or anything - which was nice for a change. Boss’s side hustle appears to be moving ...

Something made me genuinely smile so hard yesterday. Let’s back up to the Oscar party a week from last Sunday. There were some people there I hadn’t seen in a long, long time. One person in par...
Early Sunday Evening in These Foolish Things
Sunday evening. Well, this weekend was my first weekend since mid-September without The Scot. How weird it was. I mean, we’ve seen each other via FaceTime at least every weekend for the last 6...
