Delinquent Blogger
Long time, no write. Sorry about that! The truth is, there are a lot of changes afoot in my life, and now that I really have things to share, the more I want to keep them private. Eventually, of course, I will. If you're a long time reader and don't want to wait, drop me a note and I'll direct you to my LiveJournal.
A few things to catch up...
I've been studying to become a yoga instructor and recently taught my first full session of classes to the group of doctors, nurses, and support staff that meet after work here at Mayo. Someone once told me that the first 5 classes are the worst, and that was definitely true for me. After 6 years of practice, I knew the poses, but articulating them was a different story. Still, class ran more smoothly when I got used to calling transitions, and that's what takes the 5 classes. After that, concentrating on explaining a pose was much easier. I'm about 30% of the way through my training, so I'm sure I'll be writing more about that.
I've also been doing a lot of freelance editing for a client that is putting a book together for himself of his poetry and prose. It is amazing the kind of people the Internet brings together--we've never spoken or met, but many, many hours have gone into this project already and more to come.
Meanwhile, I'm going to try and catch up on all the missing Book Club Food entries of the previous months, including our most recent, Pope Joan, The Phantom, and a few others. And, of course, some great recipes, which seem to always get the most traffic of anything!
Lastly, I'll be updating my portfolio pages on Sarahphrase with new photo galleries... the pictures that are in there are from 4 years ago or longer! I never could figure out how to adapt the Photoshop template to accept new pictures, but I've found a widget recently to import Flickr photos, and that will work just fine.
Oh, and lots of great Get Fuzzy panels to come!
