A Giant Win
It was hard to resist the spirit and energy of San Francisco as the Giants played in the World Series this past week. Last night the entire city erupted with cheers and shouts of joy as the Giant's swept the series. This is the second time since I've lived here that the Giants have won …
A Meal of Oats
After an emotional Tuesday, Wednesday was much better. I went to PT and worked out with my trainer. It's not an easy workout even though many of the movements are quite simple and small. And after yesterday's reflection about my current limitations, it felt great to move around and witness my progress completing certain exercises. …
WIAW – Forever Changed
Life will continue to surprise you all of the time. New opportunities will come your way, friends will come and go and accidents will happen. My accident happened on the last day of June and now my life is forever changed. My recovery has been going very well and the check-in with my surgeon yesterday …

Sweet Potato Sunday
Sunday night I had a craving for sweet potato fries. So I made a version of my own. I thinly sliced one sweet potato, sprayed the tops with a bit of olive oil, sprinkled them with salt, pepper and some garlic powder and baked them at 400 degrees. Within 15 minutes I had sweet potato …
A Good Evening
Last night I had no desire to workout but I still found myself driving to the pool and I ended up actually having a really good swim! It was one of those things where you dread doing it and know that it would just be easier to avoid altogether, but I was really glad I …
WIAW – Time for a change
Yesterday morning started out well, like most mornings, with a meal of egg whites and one egg with veggies and salsa. But then as the day wears on and I am sitting at my desk I get antsy and start to snack before and after I eat my homemade lunch. When I do snack it's normally …
