I am a very fortunate being. I have lived in the Bay Area all my life. I am happily married to the infamous Cycletomm. We raised two absolutely beautiful daughters, Crystal and Carly,who we love dearly and are extremely proud. I also share my life with my 88 year old mother as well as Checkers the Wonder dog and Bob the cat. I love to run on the trails!!

Life is a great big canvas, and you should throw all the paint on it you can.

Mad Cow

Quote for the Day-

Some people are uncomfortable with the idea that humans belong to the same class of animals as cats and cows and raccoons. They're like the people who become successful and then don't want to be reminded of the old neighborhood.
Phil Donahue


Peace disrupted during todays run.

The cows are back and they are not cooperating! For some reason one decided to chase and charge at Checkers. Another one started after me and I yelled and swung my arms and she stopped. Checkers seemed unaffected as we got away and continued down the trail. I thought I was over it until I came upon the next group and then the next group. They just don't want to move and stand in the way. Maybe its a cow conspiracy! It's time to go Vegan.................

What is it about today?


Checkers had a smile, too.


I'm not sure what this morning was all about. I felt like it was a beginning, I felt peaceful. Maybe it was that Christmas was over as well as the anxiety I always have about it. Maybe the fact that the trails were dry enough for my morning run. (It is just not the same when I have to run on the roads.) Or could it be mood enhancing herbs I starting taking?

Anyway a great morning run with checkers and a beautiful sunrise.

Safari West Yesterday


Tomm and I went to Safari West near Santa Rosa yesterday. If you have never been then you must go!!
Very fun and the giraffes are the best. Will figure out how to put the slideshow up cuz Tomm got some great pics.

Day One

You'd think at my age I wouldn't be looking. Funny thing is I don't know what I'm looking for......... It's a longing for a part of this crazy world where I can escape from the day to day same ol' things. The news, aughhh, the economy, the war, the gossip. Can't we all just get along?
This won't be interesting or mind blowing. It's just me lost again.....
