Name of the Day


Going through some old records at work and came across this name:  HEDWIGA BUXBAUM

What a name!  Google it and there was a woman named Hedwiga Reicher who played Dracula's Daughter.  Name sorta suits her, doesn't it?  Hee Hee

What do you think of this beautiful dress?  I bought this to wear to the wedding reception.  Your daughter only gets married once right!  A definite reason to put on a party dress.  Also a reason to hit the gym and work on those shoulders.

Happy Friday! Looks like it is going to be a fantabulous weather day…for a change.Get outside and enjoy it while it lasts.
Burpees.You all know them.You all hate them. Anyone who says they like them needs serious therapy.This morning’s torture was 100 burpees.100!!!Well, that didn’t happen but I’m sure about 60 did.Can’t say much for my form but I did them.What was I thinking with each and every painful burpee?Andrea Nicholls.Yes Andrea, all I could think of while doing them was how you got us to do them in class at Nordion.They still hurt as much as ever but I think you’d be proud of me for doing as many as I did.I’m pretty proud of me.I will make sure to take a handful of ibuprofen before bed tonight so that I can get out of bed tomorrow.I think Sat…

Yes, I do own these beauties. Wednesday...half way to the weekend but so many hours left to go.Can cross cardio off today's list - I ran for the bus. So much has happened since my last blog. Weddings, birthdays, anniversaries and now it is almost Christmas.Are you ready?I'm getting there…slowly.
The fam is going to Montreal on Saturday so I am working on my to-do list which will start after our buds Charlie and Eddie finish up their sleepover at our place.We are looking forward to doing something Christmassy with them before they head home…better put on my creative hat soon. After that I am off for a pedicure compliments of Jaan - as my feet bask in the bubbles I am going to bestow the warmest thoughts on you Jaan. Maybe I’ll put the Christmas tree up (well, into the tree stand. I love the smell of real trees. Then we can spend the week putting on the lights and decorations.

Sing it! Sing it out loud!

My day started with me walking out the front door directly into a cobweb.  Ick.


I had a lovely ride into work although maybe mitts might be in order for the early morning rides. 



I wish I had time to vary my route so that I could see more spectacular views of Ottawa but Farrhaven is just too far from downtown to add any miles to my ride.

I got to the parking garage, got off my bike and promptly started walking into the wooden bar that lifts when cars go through.  Unfortunately there were many beings in the garage and could hear the security guard yell "STOP"!!!  Ooops.


I'm sorry Ryan.  I know, bad enough that I do it but then I blog about it.
I got the last laugh though..or maybe the first.  I'm pretty sure that everyone heard me laugh when I opened an email from our IT department this morning.

I haven't decided what I'm going to sing yet but am open to suggestions.

I wonder if the person who sent out the email is having a 'Ryan' moment too.

Enjoy th…
