Reviewing My Goals for 2012

Just one day left in the calendar year, so it’s time to check in on how I did on my 2012 goals. (Note to self: I really should check in on my goals list before day 365 ((I nearly wrote day 364, but then I remembered that this year was a leap year!)), so that I […] →Read more

2012 Year-in-Review

Just under a year ago, I wrote my 2011 year-in-review posting about what a great year I had. Little did I know that just 17 days later we would get the news that my dad had a brain tumour and that less than a month after that, he would be gone. Losing my dad has […] →Read more

R-E-L-A-X-I-N-G, That’s What Boxing Day Means To Me

After the gruelling year that I’ve had, I have really been looking forward to my Christmas holidays and I have to say, they have thus far not failed to deliver. Where by “deliver” I mean “involve me relaxing and not thinking about work or school”. Case in point – I’ve spent virtually all of today […] →Read more

I did the least amount of Christmas baking ever, as my plans for an evening of Christmas baking last Wednesday were thwarted by poor bridge design. I did cinnamon buns for a Christmas breakfast potluck at work on […] →Read more

I’m An Author!

Well, as it turns out, the reason that I needed that photo was for the author bio page of the textbook I’ve been working on! Essentials of Nutrition: A Functional Approach, […] →Read more

Trapped In Surrey!

The weather forecasters claimed that while we would get some snow this morning, it was going to be rain by midday and thus the snow would be washed away by the time I had to drive home ((I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – snow belongs on ski hills and in my […] →Read more

Third Time’s The Charm

For the third year running, I’ve made it to the finals of Cath’s blog’s Comment of the Year competition! Basically, she picks the top comments from her blog over the past year and then lets her readers vote on the overall winner. For the past two years, I’ve come in *second* in votes. They say […] →Read more

2012 Classes – Complete!

Today marked my last class for 2012 ((I have an assignment due for this class that I just finished today, but it’s not due until January 14, so I figure I don’t need to worry about it until after Christmas))! I am a very, very tired – but very happy – Dr. Beth. The classes […] →Read more
