Despite the threat of tornadoes, a couple of the (formerly) McGuire's girls and I dropped in for the weekly cookout at the DelSo's own Cheese Traveler. What?

Please allow me to share some information about what … Continue reading Friday night cookout at The Cheese Traveler

Zero tolerance for pain
I've come to realize that I don’t do well with pain, at least not pain of the emotional sort. As a matter of fact, when someone seriously hurts my feelings, I get angry. Really, really angry.

On a recent evening, in an effort to combine my desire for stretching with my need to be home, I attempted some vinyasas al fresco with mixed results. I found a yoga station … Continue reading Yoga on the deck
