Healthy Eating
My writing time got eaten (pun intended) up by an impromptu music night in our alley. Therefore I don’t have the energy to write a full post. I’ll just say that I’m making efforts to eat lots of fresh fruits and vegetables and to minimize eating any processed foods or added sugar. I’m having fun…

Keys
Show me your old without telling me your old. See the photo below. I feel like carrying keys are starting to seem very old fashioned and can definitely date s person. Nowadays there are fewer and fewer reasons to carry them. Cars now have keyless entry and doors often have keypads and can be operated…

Back to School Night
Back to School Night brought the whole family to the school building tonight. Coincidentally,the HBO show The Wire was filmed in their school building in central Baltimore. Since we have three kids we often have to be in two places at once. I’m still feeling pretty zonked from all the information each teacher provided. I…

Too Tired
I tried to think about a topic to write about today but realized that I’m just too tired to write. I also realized that in and of itself is an adequate topic. It’s okay to be tired and have nothing to write about. Still, I intend to write a little everyday to exercise my writing…

Sleepyhead Mistake
I showed up to the gym this morning in my pajamas bottoms! I was half asleep (or maybe more than half) but when I showed up to meet my trainer and realized I was still wearing my rainbow boxer shorts I had slept in! The bottoms even had a slight ruffle trim and a light…

Hollywood at Home
I hit lots of traffic on the way to take the kids to school today but, I think the reason why is pretty cool. Traffic was all backed up at the Inner Harbor because there is a film crew filming the screen adaption of Lady on the Lake from creator Laura Lippmann. The kids and…

Flying Mom
I think today was the first time I’ve flown United Airlines. The majority of my work travel has been on Southwest since there is a hub at BWI, my home airport. I’ve also flown American, which I like. I like to compare the different airlines for things like newness of the aircraft, customer service and…

Fear of Flying and Doing it Anyway
It must sound crazy to say that I am afraid of flying and severely dislike it when I fly for work 3-4 times a month. How did I get myself into this situation? I knowingly took a job that required me to fly often and travel away from my family. Ugh. What was I thinking?…
