Bought one of these hair comb/clip things tonight, and David bought me some pretty new hair sticks. Check out the webpage for the combs at Maui Daisy Wear
After yesterday’s comic misadventures in travel, today was an easy, perfect day in paradise. We’re not a big couple for grand gestures and super-elaborate plans; we’re more in the “play it by ear” mode of operations. But David had tucked a Valentine’s Day card in his bag and this morning he made coffee and brought [...]
Can’t believe I actually LOST 3 pounds over the Thanksgiving holiday, but I was being careful about portions on the big-ticket calorie items. Also may have missed a couple of meals working on my online creative project this week…

Clear and cool this afternoon, went to Morton Arboretum to walk in the trees, avoid the nuts, and have a squirrel encounter. We didn’t have a plan, just wanted to hike in the woodlands.
As I didn’t work out on Thursday or Friday last week, I needed some catch-up as I’ve been pretty consistent [...]
