A Musing Jules: October 2013
http://amusingjules.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, October 17, 2013. Social media Jehovah's Witnesses. Hey, remember when Facebook was fun and reading your News Feed would update you on the lives of your friends? Facebook has become a constant steam of demands that you "watch this video," "like this sick child's photo to magically cure her disease," "check out this company," or "play Farmville with me now! These people are social media Jehovah's witnesses and I am ducking for cover behind my couch. There's no filter on Facebook because YOU.

A Musing Jules: October 2012
http://amusingjules.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 1, 2012. Fat Girl vs. Yoga Goddess. Today I did yoga! I'm 3 months into triathlon training. In the last 3 weeks, I've added in HIIT training, twice daily workouts and ab work. NOTE: "Ab work," (for the time being) consists of approximately 30 repetitions of an ab exercise, a 30-second break to bitch about how much it hurts, feel a bit nauseous and then probably get a charlie horse in my abs. Repeat. So, with a very sore body, today, I walked into yoga class. I am NOT a yoga goddess. A...

http://amusingjules.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, November 20, 2013. Every Wednesday, I try to break out of my own midweek hump by discovering new and exciting things, cool sites or revisiting old favorites. Why not share those with my readers? Here is this week's "oooh" and "ahhh" worthy, hump-busting lust list:. 1 I am completely obsessed with 6pm.com. They have shoes, accessories, clothes and FREE shipping on all orders! And I picked up these moto boots from Madden Girl for just $79. 2 Navy and Gold. Swoon alert! Via Glitter and Goat Cheese.

Tuesday, August 6, 2013. Wow my last blog was 3 months ago. May and June were two of the busiest months of my life. I have been putting off updating the blog because I want to tell these long stories for each item. So, 3 months has gone by. Let me 'splain. No, there is too much. Let me sum up. Buttercup is marry Hum. wait, that's not right. Oh, here we go. My new tenant, Amanda, moved in successfully. In early June, I reached a massive goal. I became a triathlete!

A Musing Jules: Prague, Art Deco, the Golden Lane and tiny homes
http://amusingjules.blogspot.com/2014/03/prague-art-deco-golden-lane-and-tiny.html
Wednesday, March 12, 2014. Prague, Art Deco, the Golden Lane and tiny homes. March 10 and 11. The drive Vienna, Austria north to Prague, Czech Republic is quite pretty. The drive took me through small towns, villages and vineyards that dotted the otherwise quiet landscape There were long stretches where I saw no other cars. I loved that. As I crossed into Czech Republic, the afternoon was turning to evening. I watched as the sky turned from blue to gorgeous orange and red. I was super excited to find I'd...

A Musing Jules: April 2013
http://amusingjules.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 21, 2013. I'm exhausted just typing that. As stressful as this current situation is, like most renovations, the end result will be wonderful. The send upstairs area will really be the "tenant area" (plus the laundry room and my office) and I'll have a lot of privacy in the (huge) master suite at the back of the house. I've made good progress so far. Step 1 - renovate the master suite downstairs so that I can move into it and begin renovations upstairs. I also LOVE that the fan has a remote ...

A Musing Jules: January 2014
http://amusingjules.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 31, 2014. San Luca.and Sara. After eating my way through Bologna, I decided to explore the city and burn some calories. And oh baby, did I ever! The sidewalks throughout the city are covered by beautiful, arched porticos. In many places, the undersides of the porticos have gorgeous frescoes painted on them. I spent hours walking while staring up at the gorgeous ceilings. I *may* have crashed into a few people, but can you blame me? Look at these ceilings! But after a few kilometers, the p...
