One Brown Shoe: Goldie's Demise
http://onebrownshoe.blogspot.com/2009/12/goldies-demise.html
Thursday, December 31, 2009. So i decided to finish my Christmas shopping last Tuesday after having dinner with the Duchess and Athena. I was trying to go to Layton when this happened:. I hit a patch of ice, a snowbank, a railroad bridge, did a couple of 360s, and ended up in the outside lane of oncoming traffic. (This shot is face-on from the front of the car.). See the bump right below the black hose? Yep, I bent the frame. And what happened to my hood you may ask? So grateful you are ok! I've lived in...

One Brown Shoe: May 2011
http://onebrownshoe.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Friday, May 27, 2011. A Week of Epiphanies. As the months progressed, the times and distances increased dramatically. I remember when we moved from walking on the indoor track to walking the lanes surrounding the football field. Lane 1 was still snow covered, and lane 2 wasn't much better. The weather finally started to warm up, and my resistance to early Saturday mornings thawed along with the ground. We decided that we came up 1 mile short of the goal after driving our course. Rather than conceding...

http://warandorder.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Thursday, January 28, 2010. I have worked since I was 16. With the exception of one month I haven't been without a job for over 20 years. I take pride in any job or task given to me. I respect others when their work depends on something that I must do, no matter how small or mundane. This is a HUGE pet peeve of mine. My "quickly" has a completely different definition than theirs. I still don't have what I need / want. The guy to no avail. Wednesday, January 27, 2010. The last little while I've decided th...

numismatically speaking...: Summers past and present
http://numismaticallyspeaking.blogspot.com/2008/07/i-love-summer.html
Adding it all up. Monday, July 14, 2008. Summers past and present. I love summer. Bring on the heat, it doesn't bother me. While growing up I spent summers in the water, usually at Rainbow Gardens. No way. Oil, and lots of it was used to get those deep, dark tans. Without a doubt those long days soaking up the rays contributed to the lovely patterns of spots that now adorn my arms, legs and chest. Ever tried mustard on your popcorn? Summer is half over and already I am sad to know it will end in six weeks.

numismatically speaking...: "I'll turn you into a hat!"
http://numismaticallyspeaking.blogspot.com/2008/06/reading-is-fundamental.html
Adding it all up. Saturday, June 28, 2008. I'll turn you into a hat! Earlier this year Eris and Mr. Eris Jr. invited me to read. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. A few weeks ago we started another adventure series,. The Chronicles of Narnia. By C S. Lewis. These books are easier and move much faster than. Already we have completed. The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. On Friday we started. The Horse and His Boy. So instead we all watched the movie version of. The Lion, etc. We're working on it!

numismatically speaking...: The creation of a dimple
http://numismaticallyspeaking.blogspot.com/2011/01/creation-of-dimple.html
Adding it all up. Friday, January 14, 2011. The creation of a dimple. Here goes. Lots happening in the last three weeks and it's time that I write about it. I have spent my life in the sun, especially summers at the pool. From the time I was young I relished playing in the water and being with friends and family. Sunburns were not unusual, especially on the ski slopes where the white snow reflected all those rays right back at my unprotected face. I wore my deep, dark tans proudly. Sunscreen? Dad lost hi...

numismatically speaking...: Burros
http://numismaticallyspeaking.blogspot.com/2011/03/burros.html
Adding it all up. Wednesday, March 2, 2011. This is not what I had intended to post today but the other one is not quite ready. Hopefully tomorrow. In the meantime I'll share this photo. Zeus and I just returned from a five day trip to our old stomping grounds in southern Arizona. The town of Ajo was once home to a thriving copper mine. It is now a winter home to northern snowbirds and an ever increasing population of Border Patrol and Homeland Security. It is good to be home. Re: your query on my blog, ...

numismatically speaking...: May 2011
http://numismaticallyspeaking.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Adding it all up. Wednesday, May 4, 2011. The dimple has been created, although it is currently in the healing stages. Sorry, no photos. We had been warned that the day of surgery would be long even though it was to be done under a local anesthetic. The procedure is basically cut, pathology, cut, pathology, close. It took two cuts to have clear margins which leaves me with nearly a 100% cure rate! 123 (collected on our DC trip). PS Wear your sunscreen! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Worth a thousand words.
