So there was a bit of a rough patch last week, with someone, but it all worked out. I was chatting with someone else about what all went down and her comment was “she’s really a nice person, unless she’s crabby” and thus… I went and found this rhyme that i recalled from my child [...]

The pup’s gave me a card yesterday It was very sweet! I sure do love my pups!

Since, i think birth, i’ve been unlikely to do something someone commanded me to do. Recently a weird confluence of events lead me to want to pull a – “forget it, i’m taking my ball (or frying pan) and going home” moment. A girls weekend was set up – started by a friend of a [...]

Last year we obtained a set of groupon tickets from a friend for a Gourmet Food tour around Denver. Hello – walking around our city and eating – for free- yes please! We finally were able to get a date in February but wouldn’t know our “destinations” until we met up with our guide! She [...]

This year I again decided to “Run the Republic” – a 56 flight jaunt to the top of the tallest building in downtown Denver. I trained a little less hard this year, and used the same “soundtrack” as last year, so basically ended up with the same results – ok, my sorry butt was 20 [...]
