Timeline sounds like a meticulous, minute-by-minute summary of events. Maybe it is; but I don\’t always have time to maintain such a timeline! Who does? But as I\’m on vacation this week, I can do a bit better with it. Monday morning I went to the supermarket. They open at 6:00 am; but it was […]
Bodyweight Bodyweight training is an alternative to having a lot of space-hogging equipment hanging around. You can do it just about anywhere and any time; and that’s another advantage. In effect, your own body is your gym! Most of us are quite familiar with bodyweight exercises, even if we don’t do them: pushups are an obvious example.
Comet isn\’t only one of Santa\’s reindeer. There\’s a comet out there now! I wish I could see Leonard; but it\’s very unlikely that I can. I don\’t have a telescope or binoculars; and on top of that, the weather hasn\’t been conducive to star-gazing. Many mornings we\’ve had fog; and that can blot out
BBH BBH, as I affectionately call it, is for you if chemical cleaners bother you; or if you want environmentally-friendlier ways to clean; or if you or a loved one suffers from multiple chemical sensitivities. I myself am sensitive to “fragrances” and the fumes of commercial cleaning materials; and BBH has many ways to avoid such
I\’ve got the Winter blahs, I think. We\’re finally getting a taste of Winter. The temperature this morning was about 55; and while it isn\’t cold enough for warming packs, the sudden change makes it seem plenty cold. I don\’t know whether that\’s why I felt so tired this morning; but I wound up cutting
What next? Where do we go from here? Many people are asking that now; and that\’s easy to understand. What next with all this COVID business? First it was COVID-19; then the delta variant; and now it’s omicron! Will it never end? I don’t know what’s going to happen about work. Back to remote work?
To paraphrase the song, \’Twas a long day, my friend; I thought \’twould never end\”. The last work day before vacation usually is like that. It didn\’t help that I didn\’t carry a lunch with me, and ate junk all day. I\’ve been feeling tired, anyway. It was a relief to come home! As so
Shall we gather for the holidays — or not? I know many people have been chafing under the COVID restrictions; and are eager to meet with friends and loved ones again. But just when it looked like things might be settling down, omicron reared its ugly head. COVID sure is a beast; in fact, it\’s
Is the road less traveled a better place to ride? That depends on many factors. As far as I\’m concerned, cobblestones are definitely the road less traveled. In fact, for me cobbles are the road not to be traveled! I have no desire to try them. Just look at that surface! Those interstices look wide

\”Don we now our gay apparel,\” as the carol goes. I guess my new cycling jacket falls under that category. After all, it\’s bright red! Cycling shorts are often black; at any rate, all of mine are. That doesn\’t fall under \”gay apparel\” — \”gay\” here meaning, \”brightly colored\”. But why are cycling shorts so
