I'm about to embark on my yearly wellness adventure, but first I'm off to see TC in Miami at the end of March, lol. She's all about the decadence, not so much the healthy, but she does like to walk a mean mile, so that's good. It all started about four months ago. I was … Continue reading Adventures afoot

Paradise
Last month we spent nine days in Hawaii. Mostly I wanted to just relax, bask in the sunshine, walk along the beach, devour afternoon snacks by the pool. We didn't have a rental car and weren't near any actual town, just in a resort area, so we stayed put, all nine days. Paradise! Since we … Continue reading Paradise
It’s tomorrow
Yeah, per how I left yesterday's post, it's tomorrow and I'm dealing with it and I realized how off I am. Discovery day was January 11, 2014. Somehow I thought yesterday was the 11th? Well here in the United States of America TODAY is January 11th. I really only had one D-day. There was a … Continue reading It’s tomorrow
Six countries in 16 days
Enough about addiction recovery and clueless arsehole friends. Back in September I kept asking, begging, Blue Eyes to confirm, or not, whether we were going on a business trip to Europe in October. It was on, then off, then on, then off, finally on.... At the end of the month I ended up furiously booking … Continue reading Six countries in 16 days
Anxiety abroad
I am currently in Japan. Blue Eyes is super busy with work while I get to enjoy some leisure and family time. We're celebrating my Mom's 75th and my niece's (The Princess) 4th birthday here in Tokyo. My baby brother (GQ) has lived in Tokyo for 24+ years now and I'm glad we have business … Continue reading Anxiety abroad
A tourist in my own town, part 2
I was about to publish this post, and noticed WordPress has wished me a Happy Anniversary. Four years ago today I started this blog. Welcome to post #446. Wow. A lot has happened. I am happy to be writing about something happy. Now, back to our regularly scheduled programming. Technically Seattle is not my town, … Continue reading A tourist in my own town, part 2
A tourist in my own town, part 1
I'm about to embark on a whirlwind business trip to Europe. The trip was on, off, on again, off again, and now it is most definitely happening. I've spent the past week frantically scheduling last minute transportation and lodging for the 16 day journey. I leave for NYC Thursday morning. As much as I love … Continue reading A tourist in my own town, part 1
Guess what I do when I’m really pissed off
These days... I book expensive travel. Simple as that. I used to book travel so that our little family could spend time together. Blue Eyes often was either working away from home or traveled a lot for business when our children were little. For quite a while he was away from home 20-23 days of … Continue reading Guess what I do when I’m really pissed off
And now, for the good stuff
Earlier this year Blue Eyes received an email announcing Delta Airlines direct service from Portland to London. He mentioned it to me and I was like, cool! London being one of my favorite cities and all. He then said, "hey, you wanna go to Wimbledon..." OMG, I squealed with delight. Even the thought of it … Continue reading And now, for the good stuff
What’s different now
This is NOT a recap post about what is different in my life now versus prior to discovery of my husband's betrayal and secret life. That would be one bloody long post. Been there, done that. No, this is a post about my health. I haven't really posted about my health in a very long … Continue reading What’s different now
