What a better way to start a blog than in the night before my second half-marathon. I like to walk and I have been participating in smaller races for the past 2 and a half years. Tomorrow morning I’ll be participating at the 2013 Lake Sammamish Half-Marathon. The first one I did was about a… Read more

Today I went for a walk with Nik. Yes! He’s back! So we decided to go for lunch at building 41 and walked there and back. I haven’t tracked, but this is a pretty common route for me now, so I can tell it was about 1.2 miles each way, making it a total of… Read more

This post was created in response to the Weekly Writing Challenge: Image vs. Text I never considered myself good at drawing, but also never considered myself too good at writing either and I’m still here writing… recently I draw some stick-men images to illustrate my workouts on one of my blogs, and the drawing… Read more

I’m currently (until tonight) pet-sitting 2 molly fishes for my friend. Her daughter asked Santa for some fishes and she got a 2 gallon fish tank and a gift card to go buy a fish. Their first fish was a Beta, but it did not last long. Then they went back to the store and… Read more

As you may have noticed I did not add the word Photo at the title of this post. That’s because the uniqueness I’m going to talk about is something I don’t have any pictures of my own to showcase. I can add some created by taking captures of websites, but no real picture that I took on… Read more

Today, after a 2-week forced break due to sickness, I finally went for a walk at lunch time. It wasn’t too long. It wasn’t in one go. But it was a walk. And it felt gooood! One thing that I noticed during the walk and that also made me happy was that spring is starting… Read more

Aarrrghhhh! Can’t stand this anymore. I’m actually feeling much better, so I guess that may be the last stretch, but still sick and tired of being sick and tired all the time. A little timeline of my flu so far: Friday, Jan 18th: started with some coughing and energy a bit lower than usual in… Read more

A couple of Fridays ago I got the flu. Felt awful over the weekend, took Monday off, then started to feel better. Wednesday I was feeling almost fully recovered. Then on Thursday it started going down again. Not as bad as the weekend though. Then came weekend again and my sinus got to hurt like… Read more

Still coughing a lot, and not feeling too energetic. Weather-wise, it’s cold, but not extremely, and dry. Part of me tells me to stay warm inside the office, saving my energies for a proper recovery, and leave the walking for next week. Another part of me tells me exercising is good and may help me, if I… Read more

Not for pleasure, but by force. The flu got me last Friday and even though I’m feeling much better now, I’m still low energy and trying to save all my energies for recovery… 😦 My mom would say it was because of the thick fog last week. Maybe it was… oh well. I’ll still continue… Read more

What the heck am i doing in here???? Not that I don’t like my job. I just don’t think it’s the job for me…. But if not this one, then what? What else can I do? (yeah, yeah… quite a lot of stuff I know, but would them be enough to get me a job?)… Read more

Last Friday the flu got me. Friday I was still ok and was able to go to work, although I must say it wasn’t easy to concentrate at doing any work with the low amount of energy I had. Then Saturday, after taking my oldest daughter to a kids party, my body simply decided to… Read more

Today I was almost determined to not take any pictures during my walk and concentrate on the walk only. But in the past couple years I just became a picture geek when walking, and having a camera (disguised as a phone) always with me does not help either. So I do have pictures to show! Yay! In regards to the… Read more

I have always wanted to do a post on Ferris Wheels. I like that gigantic rotating structure of the Wheels and how it looks both from near and far. Last year I took a few pictures of different ones and was collecting them, but never got to actually create the post. So this week’s Word… Read more
