we are going to compost!
daniel and i decided to compost with redworms indoors.
daniel built planters along the rail on the porch and the goal is to get some compost in time to plant in the spring.
we are so excited!
redworms, redworms, redworms.
i feel like suuuuuch a hippy.
i am taking a solid waste management class this spring and some other sustainability classes that are changing my daily practices and routines....

gym with daniel
usually makes me feel bad about my lack of shape and would make me competitive IF there was even any competition.
like right now- he is doing abs and I am sitting on the couch blogging and watching tv. I already did my stuff, and anyway I don’t want to overdo it, I have trainer tomorrow and she is going to bring the pain.
WTF
I just discovered that our stupid scale was off by 10 lbs!! 10! This is really great news since I thought I would be a candidate for Half Ton Woman. So, now I have a much less daunting task to accomplish with regards to my appropriate weight and height.
Phew.
Breakfast
I want pizza.
On the train
I am on the train home and everyone is eating something yummy to the nose. I am hungry. There is not much for me at the train station and especially since I am watching what I eat (being at station reminded why I need to watch it!)
I loved having lunch with my Jodie and Aliya and celebrating their life. I wish we had a standing date for this- how about it? 2nd Tuesday of the month or something?...
tuesday!
i am so excited to see you ladies tomorrow for lunch. have you decided where you want to celebrate your birabbiday? see you outside jodie’s office at 1.30.

we had a really lovely weekend here in philly.
emily and brendan were in town and we had them over with zack and anna and meliss and david and daniel’s school friend pierre for cocktails and snacks (for the first time ever i didn’t over do it, sadly i worry that people didn’t have enough to eat). it was really nice to have people in our house, especially since it was actually...

Barack Obama's letter to his daughters
georgiegirlnyc:
Dear Malia and Sasha,
I know that you’ve both had a lot of fun these last two years on the campaign trail, going to picnics and parades and state fairs, eating all sorts of junk food your mother and I probably shouldn’t have let you have. But I also know that it hasn’t always been easy for you and Mom, and that as excited as you both are about that new puppy, it doesn’t make up...
Early Start
En route to airport before 5am. Daniel’s parents woke up to see me off, somethig my parents have never done and never will! It was very nice although I felt badly that they had to get up so early. Trip to FL was nice, I definitely got to know the in- laws better and did learning to see in my head. They are very kind and really love their kids, that is important. Also, Daniel’s mom told...
Tomorrow Night
I am staying at Daniel’s parent’s house without him. I convinced myself it would be ok to save money on a hotel room in Miami but now am wondering if I could back out. Sleep at the airport. They are very nice and there is certainly nothing bad to say about them in any way. I fear them confronting me about something or other as they used to do when Daniel would go to the bathroom (we...
