image: http://cdnimg.visualizeus.comInteresting isn't it, the way "letting go" and "holding on" are continually swapping positions on the difficulty scale of life? Some days I just can't decide which is harder to do - or the right thing thing to do, for that matter. While I used to imagine my having less brains and more butt in … Continue reading Thoughts from a rainy day run…

Are you my mother? And who’s my daddy?
image: http://blog.schoollibraryjournal.com It's been a weird weekend...I kind of hit the wall on a number of levels, or perhaps it would be more accurate to say, hit the wall with numerous body parts. Truth be told, I probably used my head the most. I had so many options available to me; concerts, and old friends, … Continue reading Are you my mother? And who’s my daddy?

The run today was a benefit for the Albany Rowing Center, ARC. This club promotes and supports rowing and I have … Continue reading Ice Breaker Challenge
Incredibly well adjusted
The first time I went to a chiropractor I was in a bad way. Although I can't recall the exact nature of my complaint, I'm sure it originated in my lower back because that was where things used to hurt. I remember being a bit hesitant about having my back "cracked" and feeling awkward about … Continue reading Incredibly well adjusted
