Following what may have been the best June ever and a July that was fantastic, August has started with a bang! Last night I had a primo Albany evening - drinks with friends, a concert that was beyond all expectations and a late night walk around the Empire State Plaza. Plus, there was the bonus … Continue reading Catching a Lyft to see the Shakes

Tidal time
Just back from a quick trip to the Cape and feeling a bit overwhelmed by the speed of life. It was a three-day trip and we packed in a lot of time outdoors, a couple of beaches and bike rides and a few margaritas. There were friends in Provincetown to drink with and the weather … Continue reading Tidal time
Seeing the whole of the moon – U2 at MetLife
I've seen U2 a half dozen times, but I don't think I've ever been as excited for a show as I was last Wednesday.

A couple of weeks before my trip I splurged on a pair of pricey slippers. When I say "pricey," I'm talking like more expensive than most of the shoes in my closet, not including Frye's and running shoes. Yes, they were a bit of an indulgence for sure. When they first came in the mail … Continue reading Packing – 2 hits and a miss
Sweat, sauna, suds
I know there's some kind of Jersey saying about gym, tan and something else, but I'm a New York girl, not a New Jersey one, so my trio of activities is a bit different. First, I took a run. In all honesty, I wasn't too excited about getting outside again not knowing what the weather … Continue reading Sweat, sauna, suds
