Those are the top two reasons why this blog hasn’t been updated in a while. It’s like abandoned property – I’m sure if it were an actual property the grass would be five feet tall and the roof looks like it’s going cave in at any moment. That’s how I feel right now: a little [...]
You’ve probably noticed that this site has been fallow for the past few weeks. There have been lots of exciting things happening at Casa Canizales, I assure you, it’s just that writing about it has taken a back seat to things like sleeping and eating. It’s been nonstop for me ever since I started training [...]
I don’t know who in Russia or those who sell Viagra got my website, but man they are laying in on thick with their comments. I typically receive anywhere from five to ten comments a week from these guys. Generally it’s harmless, telling me that they like my site or asking me if I want [...]
My co-worker has been browsing the Tiffany site for a Mother’s Day gift for his wife. That’s when I stumbled across this little gem: Isn’t it pretty? The color is gorgeous! (I am obsessed with it, actually. I painted the walls in my house a similar shade. Oh, and my banner has the same shade [...]
Okay, there was no fight at the mobile vet. But I was really tempted to wrestle this one lady into the ground. I take my wild and crazy dogs (I just call them that – they’re not really wild and crazy. Okay, maybe Sadie.) to a mobile vet to get their shots. I’ve been going [...]
If my blog were a plot of land, it’d have dead grass and overgrown weeds. I have been very lax with the updates, partly due to having lots to do and little time to do it, and partly due to my own laziness. In fact, there are several half-baked post ideas in draft form, none [...]
Lately my thoughts have been scattered. Is it just me or have you been feeling distracted? I can’t seem to retain any information or do any work aside from what’s in front of me. As a result, I’ve been making lists – lots of lists – to keep myself sane. The only problem with making [...]
This week my company launched what may be an enormous time sucker: a networking site for employees within the company. A Facebook for Work. Sound like a bad idea? That’s what I think. Several days ago I got an email about the launch of an online tool called “People Connection.” Currently it’s in the testing [...]
My husband Rene has always had vivid dreams. Back when we were in high school (we have been together that long – over 10 years) he always had these wave dreams, especially during the summer. There was always a variation in his reaction to the wave – sometimes he would run from it and other [...]
I can’t imagine anyone liking Mondays. I usually tolerate them, gritting my teeth every time someone asks about my weekend. My weekends are usually wonderful – two glorious days of sleeping in, going out, or just hanging around – and having someone remind me of those lovely days irritates me. I want to live in permanent weekend [...]
