The Demise of “Should”
The Demise of “Should”
“Should” has clamored to the top of the charts. I should go to the gym. I should be more patient with my coworker. I should apply for graduate school.

I Learned to Weld!
This term I am taking Design II, which focuses on 3D graphic elements. For my most recent project, I needed to incorporate railroad tracks. The only way to do so that was cost-effective (i.e. not buying model railroad tracks) was for me to bend the rod and learn to weld so I could put it together myself.
The project was to take an existing object and give it a “new life” with a metaphor (OMG, I hate metaphors!). Continue reading
I Tri’d And Made A New Friend
As part of my effort to become more fit, I have joined Anytime Fitness in LaGrande, in addition to starting other activities on my own. Part of my membership involved meeting with a trainer (Summer), and she suggested I enter the ‘I Tri’d Triathlon’ in Baker City as a jumping off point. It was a short course, so I thought it sounded like a good idea. I may have been rethinking the whole “good idea” opinion halfway through the race. :-)
The triathlon was last Saturday. I completed the swimming and bike portions of the race, but wasn’t able to do the run. I unexpectedly had a tooth extracted the Thursday before, and by the time I was done with the bike ride, my mouth was done and over with. At first I was pretty disappointed I didn’t finish, but after thinking about it I am thrilled that I was able to do it at all. I have been exercising regularly for just under a month.
In each wave. participants shared swimming lanes. I got to share lanes with Mary. She is a sweet little girl (I think she’s about 10-11), and I am so glad I met her.

Sisters – Revisted
I came across this post from July 2006 by accident earlier today, and it made my heart sing! Oh, how I wish they were still this small!

Portland Sky

Walking around Portland Friday was so gorgeous! I loved the reflection of the clouds on this building.
