I am not trying to qualify for Boston. Let’s be clear about that. And up until this Saturday, thinking of trying to qualify this year wasn’t even on my radar. I’m still just trying to break a four-hour marathon. My best time to date is 4:15:01. To qualify for Boston, I need to run a 3:45 marathon. Drop thirty minutes off my time in one year? Not likely.
And yet…
So I'm sitting at my desk, minding my own business, enjoying a light summer's breeze when...
BAM! A cat appears right in front of my face from out of nowhere.
I'm offering another session of the "Get Published" workshop in July. I love teaching this class - high energy, lots of fun, stuffed with information. If you know anyone who has an interest in writing for magazines, either as a career or a side business/hobby, please pass on the workshop information. Hope to see you there!

Oh yes, this is my life. Writing down every bit of food and drink that passes through my lips. I've been assured by books and been-there-done-it individuals that the best way to lose weight is to track your food. And the best way to track your food is to write it down. So I've got my little kitchen journal where I duly record what I eat.
3:40 PM - 1/2 pbj sandwich, 1 green apple, 1 leftover piece of veggie pizza
I'm only on Day 5 and it's been an eye-opening experience. People - I eat a LOT of food. Wow. So much for the "I must have a slow metabolism" excuse. Um, no. Piggy just can't stop eating.
