We went to see the last mimzy last night, and it was a really cool movie.
Cool effects, good, believable brother/sister relationship (both kids were great in this, the girl was adorable), and just a neat story that is different enough from other movies that have tackled similar topics.
Interestingly, the movie started off in the future [...]

So, I have booked a flight to NC in a few weeks, to check out what it is like there, see if it is a place we could comfortably live, check out what it’s like to drive around, trail access for running, all that sort of thing.
I will be there from Tuesday morning through Friday [...]

Use the 1st letter of your name to answer each of the following. They MUST be real places, names, things — NOTHING made up! If you can’t think of anything, skip it. Try to use different answers if the person in front of you had the same 1st initial. You CAN’T use your name for [...]

It’s no surprise that I’ve always been not much into drinking. It affects me really quickly, it makes my stomach bloat out, and it makes me really sleepy.
I started to wonder if I was allergic to alcohol.
And then this weekend when I confirmed that I don’t handle gluten or wheat well at all, well, I [...]

I think I have found my food culprits, and it looks like I am a celiac (gluten intolerant) who can’t handle processed sugar.
I had falafel on a white roll yesterday to begin introducing wheat. While my stomach didn’t bloat as quickly as it did after eating ice cream, it did eventually, and it lasted for [...]

I love trees, I feel a connection to them. I say hello to trees. I will stop and put my hand on them and say a silent greeting. I will hug trees. In some of the trees around here, I can see faces, especially in the forests, and I instantly make up stories about tree [...]

We have officially past the spring equinox and are now legally allowed to say it is spring, even though it has been spring here in Portland for well over a month.
Every time I walk Myra through the neighborhood, there are more flowers blooming, more cherry blossoms and magnolia trees. Daffodils, tulips, happy little purple flowers, [...]

Yesterday, I had a great wellness exercise class, we ran to the track and did a lot of sprints. We would sprint the straight away, then do an easy walk or jog on the corners. We would run a few laps at normal pace, then go back to the sprinting.
I felt like I was flying, [...]

I started adding food back on Saturday, adding dairy first. No problems with dairy at all. I even had a really little bit (less than 1/4 cup) of chocolate ice cream, and let me tell you, it tasted HEAVENLY. My stomach got a little bloaty, but that might have been from having sugar for [...]
