Sick and Tired….
Well, last week I was rather tired. While I do believe it was due to recovering from travel and yoga as I wrote about, I also think there was a lot going on. All that goings-on contributed to catching whatever bug M brought home from work. So, most of the weekend was spent feeling sick…

Historical Elections
Well, it has been announced officially – President Trump – will lead our country for the next four years. WTH???? When he announced his candidacy, I honestly thought it was a joke. It appeared that all throughout his campaign, he felt the same. No one that I know ever imagined that it would ever become…

Words
In light of the soon to be barrage of news reports on today’s election results, I thought I would write a little post about words. It is a title and topic that came to mind a while back, but I had not quite decided what to say. In considering the past 18 months of campaigning by…

Overly Competitive
As the weather is cooling down now in the UAE, more and more activities are happening outside. I have written before about my running group I joined filled mostly with moms, but they accept this non-child lady. 😉 Anyway, a while back one of them asked me why I do not sign up for a…

Scheduled or Spontaneous?

“Busy” vs busy
It has been a busy couple of days. So much so that I totally forgot about writing yesterday – also because my “screen time” routine has been unsynced due to my usual locale for such work being out of Internet commission. 🙁 Being the creature of habit and liking things to be “perfect” that I…

Business Update
I realized that I have never really explained properly here what I have chosen to do with my life since quitting. I think I said I would update later and then never did as our lives have been on a bit of a roller coaster since I quit working full-time. Therefore, let me explain. Although…

On the Verge
We are on the verge of insanity, of normalcy, of living, of dying…. This morning I went to have my medical done, which is one of the last major hurdles before my residence visa gets issued. I am not allowing myself to get excited just yet, but it does mean that we are nearing the…

Workout Goals
Ah, do not let the title mislead you. I am by no means setting ‘real’ workout goals. However, that does not mean that I do not think about challenges. Given that my car is in the shop and M needed the car for morning appointments, it was most convenient to have him drop me off…
