Fish Don't Eat Marbles: August 2012
http://fishdonteatmarbles.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Wednesday, August 29, 2012. My dad would have been 75 today. Eight years ago, just a week after his birthday, he passed away from complications following surgery for an aneurysm. Hard to believe it's been that long already. I don't remember my dad being around when I was a kid. I have flashes of memories, like the bottles of Gilbey's gin under the bar in the kitchen and Dad sitting in the bright yellow chair at the dining room table. But these memories are few. Is still one of my favorites. And then he g...

Fish Don't Eat Marbles: April 2011
http://fishdonteatmarbles.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Friday, April 29, 2011. April is the month of birthdays for our family. Mom, my three brothers, and I all have our birthdays in April (plus countless friends) - it's a great month. Mom's birthday starts the month, and every year it makes me re-evaluate what a person's age means. She is still working full-time, on her feet most of the day. Will I be able to do that when I'm her age? Will I still be as strong as she is? Will I look younger than I am, like she does? Kicked down by Sue. One More Down. On...

Fish Don't Eat Marbles: January 2012
http://fishdonteatmarbles.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, January 3, 2012. Everyone starts talking about resolutions - it's the NEW YEAR; we must set goals! I can't help but think about those things I've been wanting/needing to do. The beginning of the year does seem like a good time to write them down, create a checklist, if you will. I may not accomplish them all, but here is what I have so far:. 1 Lose about 35 more pounds by May 20 for the Bay to Breakers and for Sylvia's wedding on May 26 (spaghetti straps - eek!

Fish Don't Eat Marbles: P90X - Days 22 and 23 Recap
http://fishdonteatmarbles.blogspot.com/2012/07/p90x-days-22-and-23-recap.html
Tuesday, July 31, 2012. P90X - Days 22 and 23 Recap. After Friday's margarita madness (two drinks - woo! Workouts: Walk Away the Pounds 4 Miles and Core Synergistics. Day 22 was WATP. I'll be doing this 3 days each week. I am going to need some variety, so I'm looking to get another version of the DVD to mix it up. While I like this DVD, I know I'm going to get bored at some point. There are so many WATP workouts out there, so I'll be able to have a good variety. Day 23 was Core Synergistics. Engage!

Fish Don't Eat Marbles: October 2011
http://fishdonteatmarbles.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Saturday, October 1, 2011. Here we go - time to make another change in my life! Remember last year when I was SO excited that I was doing SO much teaching? Need a refresher - go here. Do some home improvement projects, plan a garage sale, cook real meals! There is so much I can do now that there will be time! I also get to be home and take care of me again. Anyone want to get to the gym with me? Is it really possible? I will have TIME. Can anyone ask for anything better? Kicked down by Sue. Learning how ...

Fish Don't Eat Marbles: March 2011
http://fishdonteatmarbles.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Saturday, March 26, 2011. Many have heard the saying, "When opportunity knocks, open the door.". But I think this quote by Louis L'Amour says it better: "Some say opportunity knocks only once. That is not true. Opportunity knocks all the time, but you have to be ready for it. If the chance comes, you must have the equipment to take advantage of it.". I updated my resume and emailed it. The response to my proposal? Would you like to start Monday? Yep, I got this. I answered the door. Kicked down by Sue.

Fish Don't Eat Marbles: P90X - Week Five Recap
http://fishdonteatmarbles.blogspot.com/2012/08/p90x-week-five-recap.html
Thursday, August 16, 2012. P90X - Week Five Recap. Weight Loss Week Two: 0.4 lbs. None I didn't work out at all the entire week. For the first part of the week, I was really feeling bad about not working out, but I didn't want to hurt myself more. The second half of the week, I just didn't make the time, and that's not good at all. I let myself get totally derailed. Eating: P90X and Weight Watchers. Kicked down by Sue.

Fish Don't Eat Marbles: May 2012
http://fishdonteatmarbles.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
Wednesday, May 16, 2012. I don't know what to write. I could write about the semester being over this week and how I have been anticipating this summer break for weeks - anticipating the sheer amount time I'll have to do things to take care of the house, my family, and myself. I could write about the students who didn't pass the class and are now scrambling to do extra work to pass - seriously? How about doing the homework that was assigned and actually passing a test? I could list the start of my summer...
