I have a really good idea for a post (in my head), but no time to put it all together right now…. So let me share some things from this week’s classes and this week. Other Stuff: Yoga Teacher Training all weekend. Next weekend (Sept 24th): Finger Lakes Wellness Fair in Canandaigua – it’s free! …
Happy Wine Friday plus Garden Tomatoes, Runny Egg yolks, and Wellness Fair Coming Soon! Read More »
I’ve spent the last year or so reframing and redefining my definition of being Productive. It used to involve quantitative measurement of outcomes. But now? My goal is to work less (and make that smaller amount of work fun), and along with working less, I want to breathe more deeply more often and do things …
Productive Weekend. {Depending on How You Look At It} Read More »
Last evening, my friend Kyle stopped by to see my new place, and I knew we’d drink wine. And talk a lot. I am supposed to be heading to Boston this weekend for a baby shower (college roommate)…but the baby decided to come early yesterday morning (very early in all senses). Mama and baby are …
Since Matthew got his cell phone last Friday, I have been the lucky recipient of hundreds of text messages that say… Hi I usually text him back, and ask questions (and secretly think I am helping him read better). He called me several times for a few days, and then I didn’t hear from him …

Happy Holiday Weekend! Do you have to labor on Labor Day? For an online teacher, holidays are usually irrelevant (some schools give a week off at Christmas). But since I’m teaching f2f (face to face) on Monday nights, I actually get “a day off” from that! I’m planning to use the time to work on …
I’ve been searching for a way to “get healthier” for the past few years. Honestly, once my sister died, my health really began going downhill—I could probably associate it with also having been entering my late 20’s at the time, but I think that stress may have been a catalyst. Regardless of the reason, it …
I used to know this old Ukranian lady who moved to Rochester from Elmira after her husband died…her “new” house was built in the ’90s, and she just kept saying over and over, “I always say, New is New.” I think of that now when things change for me. I’ve always been dead set against …
Thanks to everyone who tweeted and commented and celebrated Wine Friday today! I celebrated with Joe. Except he doesn’t really drink a lot, so he ate sandwiches and I drank a very nice un-oaked Chardonnay. Here’s what I learned (by asking my wine expert friend Kyle): Acidity in wine makes your mouth water and …
How is/was Wine Friday? Plus, I’m FINALLY Moving (How’s your patience? Mine stinks!) Read More »
Last Friday, I went to a friend’s house to visit, and she told me I could get there anytime after 5pm, but that I should note that there would be some other people there from 5-6pm for Wine Friday. Truthfully, I spent half of Wine Friday outside with the kids running up and down the …
It is easy for me to get caught up in the feeling that I always need to be doing something productive. Don’t interpret that as implying that I am always productive…I’m not. But when I feel like I should be getting things done, I tend not to plan anything into my life that would just …
