Last week we adopted our new kitty from the wonderful people down at the SFSPCA. The animals in the shelter are so well taken care of physically and emotionally and the adoption process was a complete pleasure. The shelter is right next to my office so I went in to visit the adult cats awhile …

To the beach!
Yesterday was a much better day than the previous one. I felt rejuvenated after crying and I was ready to take on the day after a good sleep. I made breakfast all by myself in the morning - I cooked eggs and topped them with goodies AND somehow made it to the couch with my …
Saturday Treats
Saturday was an incredibly productive day, resulting in many treats. First, I am sure many of you are wondering if I made it through my 10 miles....well, i did. And with great success! I did get lost a little bit on my route but made it back to my apartment with plenty of energy and …
During and After

Fond Memories
Friday consisted of Almondjay staples: 9-grain cereal (with sprinkles of course) and a cottage cheese salad combo: And while these meals might have been part of the routine, Friday evening we hosted some people who we do not see on a regular basis. There were a few people from our alma mater, Brandeis University, who happened …
Night at the Museum

Garage driving 101
I am working all weekend at a training session for volunteers in Charlotte, NC so yesterday I only spent a few hours at the office and planned to enjoy a relaxing afternoon filled with a a long run. Well, a 7 mile run did occur but only after a driving detour to the Marin Headlands. …
