Adventures of a well-rounded geek
I did not get a snow day today. It snowed a bunch of inches yesterday (yes, "a bunch" is a scientific term ;)) and I did not get a snow day. Being an adult, working from home, and being salary can have its downfalls it turns out. There's few of them, to be fair, but…
Instead of visiting my family in Colorado Springs this weekend like I had planned, because a good portion of snow was predicted, I stayed at home. I had taken a half day on Friday so I could spend more time with my family but since I didn't visit them, I used that time instead to…
As I write this, I continue to check the weather forecast to try to guess how much snow Denver is going to get this weekend and I reminisce of another March a few years ago now where I went to a Denver library (Schlessman to be specific) to cross stitch. The library had taught me…

My Sunday was basically as rad as my Saturday was. In the afternoon, Shari, Elisabeth, and I went on a walk at Westlands Park, a park in DTC that Shari was familiar with. I loved getting to wander around a new park I had never been to or heard of before. Thanks Shari for introducing…
Shari surprised me and Elisabeth on Friday night with our very own Lego sets. We've been watching Australia's Lego Masters tv show and it has inspired all of us to build with Legos. Shari got me a Captain America set and I knew instantly she had chosen correctly. Not only I am a Marvel fan,…

Sometimes, they are the small moments or the singular days that I experience throughout the year. Today, I'm referring to those warm days in February and March. The days that fall between 60 to…

Bread pre oven I couldn't help myself with an alliteration - botanicals, bread, and bingo - it was just too good to pass up. You're welcome. Yesterday revealed itself to be an overall pleasant day. I'm on steroids for a few days to help with my sensitive tooth (thanks new crown) and so my mood…
Everyone likes pizza. I used to hear that phrase and feel annoyed because I didn't really like pizza. I generally don't like tomatoes or tomato based foods and many pizzas I encountered had too much tomato sauce for my liking. But then, a while back, my ex and I did a pizza day where we…
Because yesterday was a high of 5 degrees (eek), my friend, Robyn, and I moved our in person walk to a virtual video hangout instead. I think we made the right decision. We got on the topic of the cold weather, because, you know, we had to, and she started telling me about how if…
