The Ex-Ex-Nomad: 2008.03

http://exnomad.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html

Two negatives make a positive, right? Tuesday, March 25, 2008. Only YOU Can Prevent Forest Fires and Other Such Accidents. They say hindsight has 20/20 vision, yes? Well, in retrospect, there are at least 3 THINGS that I could have done differently to avoid taking such a tumble:. 1 I could have moved the garbage to the bin at a later time. Did I mention there was a torrential downpour at the time when I took the garbage out? I neglected to mention those details? The slippers. What can I say? They were at...

Two negatives make a positive, right? Wednesday, June 11, 2008. But Of Course, Salt Spring Wasn't ALL Bad. Lest y'all think my first trip to Salt Spring Island was all doom, gloom, and grumbling about the crappy hand drawn hiking maps, let me remind you what a wonderful and magical place it truly is. Only on Salt Spring:. Can you meet not one, but two. People, who are members of the same chanting and meditation group as Marty and I (Siddha Yoga). In a span of 10 minutes! UH: (genuinely alarmed) The what.

http://exnomad.blogspot.com/2008/06/wanted-czech-translator.html

Two negatives make a positive, right? Thursday, June 5, 2008. Wanted: A Czech Translator. Marty and I are hoping that you, or somebody you know, can speak both fluent English. At an adult level). During our visit (we stayed in a suite in their house for nearly 3 months), Zdena was always happy to indulge my sweet tooth (and her own! Pictured here with our favourite: Geisha brand chocolate bar. Are you able to translate our English letter into Czech? Thank you so much! September 5, 2008 at 8:26 AM. I like...

Two negatives make a positive, right? Monday, January 28, 2008. This was despite the fact that many of my friends go up to Mount Washington to ski. I just assumed that the 'ski hill' they spoke of was a C.O.P. Special- full of freshly made 'snow' to attract all the hard core 'skiers'. I'll admit I was wrong about this. Very, very wrong. Sure, it was no 45 minute jaunt to Kananaskis, but even the 3 hour commute to and from the resort here was worth it- we love to snowshoe! I could do this every day:.

Two negatives make a positive, right? Monday, April 30, 2007. Today is my youngest sister's 21st birthday. As I was flipping through some old photo albums and trying to find some embarrassing photos of her to post for the occasion, I got to thinking about a particular idiosyncracy in (about? The way my family celebrates birthdays. Can you put a heart over the 'i'? And can you make that 'D' a little more juvenile? Maybe it's just us.). It's the gift that keeps on giving! Happy birthday, Gare! I've also be...

Two negatives make a positive, right? Thursday, April 24, 2008. And Now, To The OTHER Extrem(ities). I thought it was bad news when my forearms started getting sore after too much knitting and/or keyboarding. Oh no', I thought to myself- 'I'll have to knit and blog less! How sad is that? And so I started knitting and blogging less. Reluctantly. This goes without saying. One mighty pound of weight. 'Ha! I laughed. 'What sort of wimp needs to start off with one pound weights? Things got even worse when the...

The Ex-Ex-Nomad: Hopelessly Devoted To You

http://exnomad.blogspot.com/2008/06/hopelessly-devoted-to-you.html

Two negatives make a positive, right? Friday, June 6, 2008. Hopelessly Devoted To You. When we first moved to Victoria, Marty and I bought memberships to the least expensive club around: the local Rec Centre. It had many things going for it- it was cheap, it had recently been renovated, and it was within a few minutes' walk of our apartment. However, it was also crowded and small. And did I mention crowded? But more yellow, still) that were really cool in the 90s, when sweatbands and shimmery spandex leg...

Two negatives make a positive, right? Thursday, May 29, 2008. My Name Is Dana, and I Am A First Aid Attendant. Can I Help You? Yesterday, I overcame a deep-seated dislike of blood and Little Anne dolls. And managed to scrape by with my Level 1 First Aid training. It was only one day of learning, and yes, it's only Level 1, but I am proud to say I can now perform CPR, the Heimlich maneuver, artificial respiration, and the like. If I have to. But I hope I never will. Really good at the whole communication ...

Two negatives make a positive, right? Monday, July 30, 2007. The End of the World as I Knew It. And (predictably enough, if you're an REM fan, anyway) I feel fine. Note: We did not eat NEARLY that much ham from the get go. those pieces on the plate will last about 46 meals, or 3.5 years, whichever takes longer.). It was much better, and I didn't feel so nasty afterward. And now. perhaps I will be what they call a flexitarian. One of those made-up states of being, like metrosexual. Labels: Lil ol me.
