I finally did it. After months of consideration. Months of anticipation Endless dreaming and fantasizing. Getting so close, but never having enough. Well I finally did it. I made kale chips. It was easy. And not so scary. And way too salty. But when you’re cooking, your first attempt is never perfect. But eventually delicious. … More Day 182: Kale Chips
I am seriously dragging today. Which is bad because it’s almost vacation time! Yay!!! Carina is driving over from Orlando this afternoon and we’re going to have some fun in the sun with my extended family. I cannot wait! Just let me get a workout and nap in first… :-). Like I promised, here are … More Day 181: Sunset Moonrise
Is it already Monday?? Where has the time gone. It seems like so much happened this weekend. Until I actually review what I did and realize it was not much at all. What was I doing? Sleeping? Probably eating. And lots of reading. What was I reading? Don’t laugh… but I finished Fifty Shades of … More Day 180: Scenes at Dusk and Rock Hard Abs
Ugh. Blogging has been a challenge for me the last several days. Whenever Peter leaves I inevitably fall into a funk. I don’t want to see anybody. I don’t want to do anything. I just want to be alone. This is fine for a while. Eventually the world calls me back and I snap back … More Day 179: This Thing Called Life
The sun is out! The sky is blue! It is a welcome sight. I almost forgot what the sun looked like. Though I probably should get used to that. Shanghai is not the sunniest place in the world…. With the sunshine came dry streets and the ability to actually drive to work Wednesday. It was … More Day 178: Welcome Back Sunshine
The sun is out! The streets are (almost) dry!! Unfortunately this meant that I actually had to go in to work today ;-), but it is nice to get out of the house. Tuesday Yesterday was still very wet and tide still very high so we decided to stay close to home again. Cabin fever … More Day 177: Stuck at Home
Monday was just like Sunday. Which was just like today . Stuck at home. Teeth aching from too much sugar. Wearing the same Lulu yoga pants. Sitting in the same chair in the kitchen. Typing on the same computer. Eyes still blurring over too much screen time. Dock still submerged by water. Streets still flooded. … More Day 176: Rescue Mission Success and The Bachelorette
So if you pay attention to the news you probably know that Tropical Storm Debby has been battering Florida for several days now. In fact, my family has been stuck at home for 3 days on account of extreme flooding. We live on Snell Isle, a man-made island in St. Petersburg that usually fares well … More Day 175: Fording the River [and Failing]
Saturday was sadly Peter’s last day in town. This trip was much shorter than usual and we were both feeling it. Fortunately we had a lot of fun last weekend on the ocean and felt like we had done a lot together. After sleeping for a glorious 9-10 hours (yikes!) we had lunch at Museum … More Day 174: The Calm Before the Storm
Yesterday was absolutely insane. I can’t even understand what happened. If you follow me on twitter @kcaptures you know what’s going on. Before getting in to it, let’s go all the way back to Friday. Here’s a picture of Mingus the cat. Looking very perplexed. Friday I worked from home, anxious to spend time with … More Day 173: The Beginning of a Bizarre Weekend
