Taking A Break

I clued into my own happiness this past week which meant a lot less time on news sites and more time doing the things I love. Or in one case, ahem, taxes, something that I’ve been procrastinating doing for quite some time. Something I discovered: Checking In with Susan David’s podcast. It gives you someContinue reading “Taking A Break”

Building Resiliency

It’s impossible not to feel some form of anxiety these days. Our world is upended: the way we interact, the way we travel, the way we do business, the way we exercise, the way we shop for food – all of it has changed. And the media is right there, documenting every step along theContinue reading “Building Resiliency”

That Achey Leg Feeling

Know what feels good? Going out for a long, hard ride on the bike and coming home completely wrecked. It makes you forget about the world we’re in these days, even with the constant reminders of people wearing face masks and towns looking deserted. If you push yourself hard enough, you feel completely present inContinue reading “That Achey Leg Feeling”

Saying Goodbye Is Never Easy

Ben and I said goodbye to our sweet, loyal and old pup Moonli at 4:30pm yesterday. He lived 14.5 full years and we’re so thankful for the time we got to share with him. Things were getting pretty bad at the end – his cleft pallet membrane had a puncture and he was obsessively eatingContinue reading “Saying Goodbye Is Never Easy”

I laid in bed for 90 minutes before finally getting up. When I finally sat down to sew the last couple ofContinue reading “Back in Business”

I’ve been up to my eyeballs in sewing masks. I thought they’d be quick but even the basic elastic ones take me 15 more minutes than I thought. And the ones with cloth ties? Those take basically an hour a piece! I’ve spent more time sitting in front of the sewing machine that things areContinue reading “Covid Catchup”

Quick Case Count Update

You’re getting two for one entries today. And news that it’s recommended all people wear masks. Shocking. Not really. Colorado COVID19 Case Load: 4,173 cases, 823 hospitalized, 53 counties, 22,071 people tested, 111 deaths, 27 outbreaks at residential and non-hospital health care facilities. Denver 716, 14 deaths Arapahoe 500, 10 deaths Jefferson 440, 13 deathsContinue reading “Quick Case Count Update”

Mask Maker

Finally! My random sewing skills can be put to use. I’ve been on a mask making spree. Some are with elastic, some are made with binding and some have wire nose pieces to keep the mask from fogging up your face. The White House is expected to urge Americans to wear face covering in public. Continue reading “Mask Maker”
