The filing issue
Sometime in the distant past – more than a decade ago and maybe before that – I started filing my taxes electronically using my parents’ computer.
Continue reading “The filing issue”A wide world of postcards
Because I’m dividing my miles biked between two challenges, and my miles walked between two challenges, I get postcards from all over the world in my email box.
Continue reading “A wide world of postcards”A little help
I fixed lunch quickly and headed back to my desk. It was too busy a Monday – dear Lord could it still only be Monday – to linger about.
Continue reading “A little help”The other side of the coin
Last week I posted about how I was slacking off and way behind on my daily step goals.

If you’ve been here any length of time (and waded past all the virtual challenges and culinary misadventures that are currently taking the place of actual travel adventures), then you also know I listen to a lot of podcasts.
Continue reading “It Was Said: are you listening?”Slacking
It’s not ideal, but it’s also not unheard of for me to have less than 10% of my step goal behind me by 1pm.
Ideally I would have a workout in the morning or maybe during lunch, so that I wouldn’t be so far behind by the end of the day. But it doesn’t always happen that way.
