Short Week

How much work will I actually accomplish this week? Four days to power out...

Stay tuned!

Nickel Diner for breakfast

Wasn't impressed at breakfast. Heard lunch is better. Did LOVE the red
velvet donuts.

Runyan Canyo hike today

Poor Bunny!

British Boy (aka the Hubby) got this tooth fixed today - permanent crown. You don't want to know how he cracked it (believe me, I am still sorry for asking). Needless to say, I think tonight will be rubbing his head and feeding him soup from the few phone calls I've received since he left the dentist's chair.

For a preview of my night tonight, let's watch my favorite version, the "Man Cold" from Man Stroke Woman:

Trifecta of Death...

Ed McMahon, Farrah Fawcett, and now MJ. WOW!


Michael Jackson Dies

Free Nights

A magnet a friend gave me last year...

I am a consummate volunteer. Whether it is for a non-profit, a friend, my boss, or whatever, I am always one to raise my hand and say I will be there.

Not lately.

For the past few months, really slowly over the course of the year, I have stopped saying Yes and started saying No (thank you).

My husband, British Boy, and I had a date night tonight - gasp, a Wednesday. It's what triggered this thought because normally I would have committee meetings on Wednesday. Also, Thursday morning at 7am, I would normally have Pilates class.

Tonight I had a wonderful dinner and a funny movie (The Proposal) with British Boy. I'll be able to get a good night's sleep and not wake early.

Don't get me wrong, I still volunteer my time and attention in a variety of ways, but I'm learning to be a little selfish with my time and attention.

And that's ok.

Impressive Break!

I was at my favorite wine bar tonight (more on that later) and a friend both split and beheaded a glass. We all went WOW. Here's the photo:

Testing... First mobile blog. Send!

what's in a name?

where do i start? that's the first question i asked - do i make this blog private or public or something in between? so instead of going into things, i'll start with my name: KEETOTS. my real name is KRISTA, but when i was a little girl, I couldn't pronounce Krista so apparently most conversations went like this...

Someone would ask me - "What's your name little girl??"

I would respond in my little girl voice, "KEETOTS."

For some reason no one seems to remember this except my dad and when he tells the story, he uses a very high pitched voice. Kind of hilarious. Anyway, the nickname stuck.

Happy Friday!
