I’m still here and trying to recover from the ablation procedure and feeling bitter and discouraged about most likely needing another in 6 months. I keep hoping things will get better in the meantime without needing medications with awful side affects and risk. Ugh. But I have been dragging a bit not being able to […]
Fall Vibes for the List
I am still in a funk recovering from an ablation procedure and dealing with complications while waiting anxiously to determine if the procedure was a success or another will be needed in 6 months and being frustrated about not feeling good enough to get back into a fitness routine to deal with the stress and […]
Turbulent Week for the List
It’s has been a rollercoaster of a week recovering from the ablation procedure, fearing the procedure was not a success, and dealing with medication adjustments that I will be stuck with for the next 3 months hoping things settle down and I won’t need to go through the procedure again. We’ll see! I have been […]
Week of Resting for the List
It has been a week recovering from a procedure I have been hoping to not need for a long time, but ended up having it. A few years ago I started having challenges sometimes while running, episodes of racing heartbeats and struggling to catch my breath would start shortly after starting a run and end […]
Soups and Bowls for the List
Fall is officially here and it even feels like it a bit with cooler temps and a breeze this weekend. It has been a chaotic week for me being busy at work and with life, so there has been some convenience eats. Ron sweetly got Thai takeout Monday night. I went to Zest Kitchen again […]
Soup and Fried Tofu for the List
Another weekend flew by too fast after a long week. But there have been some great eats this week including a creamy soy curl and sweet potato turmeric sauté, sesame ginger tofu stir fry using more zucchini from our garden, a huge salad with tempeh, sprouts, sauerkraut, and Trader Joe’s Creamy Vegan Dill Dressing. Oh, […]
Inspired with Peanut Powder for the List
Hints of fall are showing up here and I’m still not sure I’m ready for summer to end. It has been a good summer with mild weather compared to ones in the past. I consider September summer still here, but neighbors are already starting with the Halloween decorations while I’m craving more outdoor fun time. […]
Pizza and Easy Eats for the List
I am enjoying the long weekend, it’s nice not thinking about work tomorrow. We may get out for more paddle boarding as we hang on to summer vibes. Even though it’s been rainy and overcast here, summer weather will be back tomorrow. I have been on a vegan pizza kick this week starting with the […]
More Summer for the List
I’m not sure I’m ready for summer to be over, a rare thing for me to say. But this has not been a brutally hot summer and I’d like more outdoor adventures. I did get to break out my neglected inflatable paddle board this weekend for a paddle boarding excursion with my sister and had […]
Week of Reflection for the List
This could be an interesting week for me as I reflect on a year ago. This week marked the 1 year anniversary of me leaving my last job after over 15 years due to facing serious burnout. This week will also be the 1 year anniversary of Miko passing which is still so painful to […]
