http://susanruns.blogspot.com/2009/10/my-two-best-friends.html
Wednesday, October 7, 2009. My two best friends. My leg still hurts! 160; I will be making an appointment to see a doctor. Still pain when I try to run. I start my workout by running half a block to see if today is the day…and it’s usually not so I hope on the bike. I would like to introduce you to my two current best friends:. When we got back from Maryland. 160; I think I did pretty good for my first two hour plus ride! Sunday, October 4. 3008 miles in 2:13:07, avg pace of 4:26 (13.6 mph). I got cal...

the alfer life: Candy Man
http://alferlife.blogspot.com/2012/06/candy-man.html
Wednesday, June 13, 2012. A resident just popped in for a visit with a bag of candy, leaving four pieces on my desk. I thanked and said something about having a sweet tooth. You have a sweet tooth, huh? He asked, grinning. As I nooded, his grin turned into a full mouth gaping smile that reminded me of last year's jack-o-lantern after the knife slipped and I had to cut his teeth off. "Well I don't! I love your stories :). June 13, 2012 at 8:59 PM. Great to see you :). June 13, 2012 at 10:58 PM. Chi Runnin...

the alfer life: November 2010
http://alferlife.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, November 23, 2010. Just Like Old Times. At the New Place and just had the opportunity to meet a new resident who will be moving in after Thanksgiving. I greeted her and introduced myself, to which she responded: "My GOD you have big eyes! The honesty of old people. Friday, November 12, 2010. Life Changes Like the Weather. Change is hard. Feeling feelings is. I am tuned into such a damned. I've discovered, though, that. Can be a state of living.instead of a. Yeah, it was a tough summer. While my ...

the alfer life: My New Friend
http://alferlife.blogspot.com/2010/12/my-new-friend.html
Thursday, December 2, 2010. It appears the New Place might just have a similar cast of characters as my beloved Rock Ridge. I'm still meeting people every day and most the time I have forgotten the person's name within the hour. Not today, though. I'm Bob," this ancient person said to me as he extended a hand more gnarled than an old sea captain. "Bob! Well, I shouldn't forget that," I replied. You won't if you put an extra O in it," he deviously grinned. Indeed I won't. Ever. December 2, 2010 at 9:02 PM.

the alfer life: Sticks and Stones
http://alferlife.blogspot.com/2008/08/sticks-and-stones.html
Wednesday, August 6, 2008. Apparently a resident tried to sit in the wrong. Seat at Maude's table yesterday. Just to be clear, we still do not have assigned seats or tables. No, this makes no difference to Maude. Maude looked right at the perpetrator and told her she couldn't sit in that seat. And just for good measure she added "you bug-eyed old bag! Labels: i hate to say it but she really does kinda have bug eyes. Oh yeah and shes 15 years older than the woman she called an old bag. Run Race. Repeat.

the alfer life: Clever Karma
http://alferlife.blogspot.com/2011/01/clever-karma.html
Thursday, January 13, 2011. Lately I’ve had several thoughts of the day or messages regarding karma, which has given me reason to ponder its essence more fully and realize a definition identifiable in application to my life and where I am right now (and I don’t mean “where I am” as in sitting at the computer in Indiana, but rather where I am in my spiritual and personal growth.). Has put me in a state of consciousness in which I try to keep an attitude of gratitude while looking for opportunities to expr...

the alfer life: Fork You
http://alferlife.blogspot.com/2008/07/fork-you.html
Tuesday, July 8, 2008. Just like church, the dining room pretty much sees the same people sitting in the same places every day. There are no assigned seats here. Which I (perhaps mistakenly) tell each new Resident who moves in. So New Resident decides to sit at "Maude's Table." Let me reiterate.THERE ARE NO ASSIGNED SEATS. There are no assigned tables. First come, first served. Sit wherever the hell you want. That kind of thing. Labels: can anyone say unreasonable? I think I deserve hazard pay. Run Race&...

the alfer life: Wednesday Wisdom
http://alferlife.blogspot.com/2010/01/wednesday-wisdom.html
Wednesday, January 27, 2010. I visited a resident and began the conversation by breaking my own rule of never asking a resident "How are you? Well, I've been sick" 92-year-old Catherine replied with the all-too-standard answer (and the main reason you should never ask an old person this forbidden question). I asked, already too far gone to turn back now. Catherine leaned in toward me as if she wanted to share a secret and whispered loudly: "Let's put it this way. You should never trust a fart.". Septembe...

Raw Cool...Black is the new Blog....: Glee Ful
http://rawcool46.blogspot.com/2009/12/glee-ful.html
Saturday, December 5, 2009. Anybody watch this show? I am just starting to watch it and I am really digging it. Granted, it is a show about highskool kids and I am far removed from that scene, but the show is fun to watch. Lots of music and fun stuff. Plus, that teacher Will Schuester AKA Matthew Morrison is kinda hawt! It's not everyday you get to view a funny interesting highskool drama with the tag line A biting comedy for the underdog in all of us. Happiness isn’t good enough for me! From the lovely ...
