After a fun-filled weekend celebrating my husband’s birthday, I was more than ready to take part in my civil obligation and sit for jury duty.  That was until I called in to register and see if I was scheduled to show up. Turns out, out of all the repeated, highlighted and bolded information…phone numbers, juror Continue reading →

A little known secret about me…I love, love, love to enter contests and sweepstakes (which is probably why I enjoy arranging for the contests on ConstantChatter too).  I haven’t done it much here, but in my not so distant past, it wasn’t uncommon for me to create massive lists of various contests.  And lucky me, Continue reading →

For my husbands birthday, I had planned to take him a way for a day of wine tasting in Santa Barbara. But work got in the way. Then we were going to go a couple weeks later, but again, his work got in the way.  He then proposed that we go out that way for Continue reading →

It was a very laid back kind of vacation. We’d been to the Mendocino coast quite a few times before, but this was the first time we went in the winter.  The best part of the whole visit, since we’d been so many times, there wasn’t any sort obligation to do anything vacationy.  Very cool.

Thinking of you while enjoying our vacation. One of the best things about living near the California Coast. Hope you enjoy this brief moment of zen.

Hello, my name is Kat and I’d like to make a little confession… I can’t seem to take a vacation (no matter how short), without first having to shop and pamper myself a bit.

My apologies…in my rush to get something (let alone something relevant) up on time for my NaBloPoMo post, I wound up using a tool with a pretty crappy randomizer that apparently sucks in a HUGE way.  I’ll fix it tomorrow. I Continue reading →

Or any smart phone for that matter. I’ve been noticing more and more people talk about downloading books on either the Kindle app or the Eucalyptus app and happily, enjoyably reading books while they’re traveling.  Or while they’re waiting in line at the doctors or post office or whatever. When I travel, I like to Continue reading →

Traffic Sucks? (I STILL haven’t gotten around to getting the MP3 player/plugin to work, so feel free to click the link and go directly to the page to listen…it’s only a couple of minutes long). [Audio clip: view full post to listen]

Back in July, one of the business coaches I follow wrote a post about her top five travel destinations.  I’ve been sitting around pondering this since then.  Right now, with the mere thought of school starting up again shortly (and no, I haven’t yet written my syllabus thankyouverymuch), I’d be happy to go anywhere nice Continue reading →
