Thoughts on Living the Life Creative
Over the last couple years, I have had a great location to do my walking and running (when I've managed to pull that off). Just a few miles away is a great local park with a small lake in the center. Given the Scottish history of the name of the town where I live (Midlothian),... Continue Reading →
In my ongoing attempt to keep the creative side of me flowing (which was the original purpose of this blog), I've decided to take on a weekly photo challenge. It sounded like fun, so I'm giving it a try. Photos on the blog are reduced to ensure faster loading. So they actually look BETTER than... Continue Reading →
Won't even lie. This week I just gave up. Not permanently, but I just couldn't face the struggle this week. I got virtually no exercise and stuffed my face with leftover Easter candy. We didn't plan a menu and ate out several times. Complete catastrophe. And I just didn't care. The lack of any kind... Continue Reading →
One of the things we discovered very quickly when we arrived in RVA is that the list of places to eat appears to be infinite. This has caused a certain distress to our waistlines (an ongoing struggle described in these posts). With our second anniversary here approaching, I thought I could share some of our...

This week was what it was. I'm not going to obsess about it. A sabotage week followed by a "stuff yourself with candy" week. It was never going to be good. In the end, it could have been worse. But after several weeks of positive movement, I get a couple of negative. Time to... Continue Reading →
I'm writing this a day before the weigh in. So maybe it won't be as bad as I thought. Got a little out of control at the beginning of the week (which begins for me Saturday after the weigh in). Not sure I ever got back into control. Was also ready to break into the... Continue Reading →
