Yoga Selfies
I had always scorned “yoga selfies”… until I took some. And then I started a home practice and got inspired to take a few pics and was surprised to get a good look at my own alignment. I discovered that my hips were not as square as I’d thought and I needed to make some adjustments […]
Turkey: 2006
It’s been unusually hot for an unusually long time here in Seattle. I generally hate Summer to begin with so… don’t get me started. Last night I was just so wiped out from the hot day that I let my son watch a video and I laid in bed with my phone, scrolling through people’s […]
You can take the girl outta the tech world…
… but you can’t take the tech world (or geekiness) out of the girl, yeah? After a couple times of dipping my toe back into the web waters, it seems I’ve finally just plunged right back in. Well, into the shallow end, anyway. I’m officially back to doing websites though not “full time” or to […]
“rich coast”
Once upon a time, back when I first moved to Prague, there was this… let’s call it a “hiccup” of time at the very beginning. I flew to Prague to do a month long TEFL certification (to teach English) and when it was done I wound up flying home screaming (sobbing, really) to PA to lick […]
mindfulness & technology
I wrote a brief post about a 21 day Mindfulness & Technology challenge over at Manas, check it out!
Seattle Livin’
I am always hesitant to post pics like these because our gorgeous Seattle weather is such a well-kept secret. But there you go – it doesn’t actually rain that much and we have plenty of glorious, sunny days. West Seattle is quite possibly my favorite area of Seattle. There are two parts – there’s […]
Oregon Coast
Several months ago, we went on a road trip down the Oregon Coast – I wanted to take the Nugget to the Newport Beach Aquarium and see the crazy, giant rocks on Canon Beach. Canon Beach was gorgeous – but SO WINDY!! Bonus? Along the way we realized we were close enough to take a […]
Boise Bound
This may be a repeat for some (which I had posted on Manas) so feel free to pass on by. OR read on for more details on Boise! A couple of months ago, we took an impromptu road trip to Boise, ID. Everyone kept asking, “Why Boise?” to which I could only say, “Why not?” […]
Konnichiwa, Seattle!
Husband and I like to occasionally take an afternoon to romp around downtown Seattle – we really enjoy this city and our “favorite neighborhood” is constantly changing as we discover new things. Most recently, we (re)discovered Pioneer Square – particularly a couple of shops down there that I love. So when he said we were […]
places, memories: Prague
Rainy days with a sick kid at home mean cleaning and organizing! In going through & organizing all my photos, I came across several scanned images, including these scans – business cards from places I visited or frequented while living in Prague. Lehká Hlava (“clear head”) was a lovely vegetarian (actually, if I remember correctly, it […]
puppies!
Inaugural post should include a puppy, no? Meet our puppy, you’ll be seeing a lot of her. She’s a black/tan/silver German Shepherd from outside of Boise, ID. (Long story, but not really.) If you ever need to bring someone ’round to the love of dogs, this is the dog to do it.
