On my way running: September 2011
http://onmywayrunning.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
On my way running. Trying to make the world puddle-wonderful. Tuesday, 20 September 2011. Eleven commandments of happiness (à la Gretchen Rubin). Apparently the writer of Genesis was slightly more concise than I am.). This time I want to share just one thing from one book I've found in my brain-travels: The Happiness Project. 8212;readable, personable and with enough real science and ancient wisdom behind it to make it more credible than the usual run-of-the-mill self-help dreck. Now, the idea behind the...

On my way running: February 2012

On my way running. Trying to make the world puddle-wonderful. Wednesday, 22 February 2012. A mental health reading list. Apologies for the wonky line breaks. Gotta say, WordPress is looking better and better. Hear that, Blogger? I'm convinced that in a past life I was a neuropsychologist. I like brains. I think they're cool. I like knowing how brains work (the little we know, anyway). And, even more fascinating, I like knowing what happens when they don't. You see, Descartes. Did us an enormous. Disservi...

On my way running: Maid, Mother, Magdalene, Crone
http://onmywayrunning.blogspot.com/2013/11/maid-mother-magdalene-crone.html
On my way running. Trying to make the world puddle-wonderful. Monday, 18 November 2013. Maid, Mother, Magdalene, Crone. I've found myself thinking about the annual spiritual retreat that St. James Anglican holds at Canterbury Hills —I've been fortunate over the years to attend several of these weekends, spent with a community of powerful, wise, supportive women who are equally happy to rub your feet, hold you while you sob, and high-five you when you master a difficult belly-dancing move. Where do I fit?

On my way running: January 2012
http://onmywayrunning.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
On my way running. Trying to make the world puddle-wonderful. Monday, 16 January 2012. New Year's resolutions. Hate them, hate them, hate them. For me, making resolutions is usually a straight and narrow road to Failure Town and that's a place I really, really don't like to even think about, let alone visit. But I just finished reading Brene Brown's brief book The Gifts of Imperfection,. That is, a life full of all the emotions available to our fragile human hearts. She argues, in an eloquent TED talk.

On my way running: The cheapskate's guide to exercising
http://onmywayrunning.blogspot.com/2012/03/cheapskates-guide-to-exercising.html
On my way running. Trying to make the world puddle-wonderful. Tuesday, 27 March 2012. The cheapskate's guide to exercising. I'm desperately trying to resist the birthday cake that's in the office kitchen right now, so I thought I'd distract myself by writing a post about exercising. Those of you who know me know I'm an occasional runner, hiker, biker, and roller skater. I've done one Warrior Dash. And one 5km race. This isn't just an economic decision, although that's part of it. Ideally, although it may...

On my way running: Three more found Facebook poems
http://onmywayrunning.blogspot.com/2012/08/three-more-found-facebook-poems.html
On my way running. Trying to make the world puddle-wonderful. Friday, 24 August 2012. Three more found Facebook poems. Oh, I can't resist. I've been writing these for a while, but they've been relegated to a far and distant corner of the Facebook galaxy through its many redesigns. I thought I'd show them the light of day again. How Can an Ice Cream Factory Have a Fire? I'm practicing my grimace, scowl, and unimpressed glower. Why are you laughing? Fickle Feline, What's in Your Makeup Bag? Subscribe to: P...
