[tweetmeme source=”elizabethev” only_single=false]I probably shouldn’t admit this, but prior to Wednesday’s workout, I thought the Dorchester Heights monument was, um… in Dorchester. It’s visible from the highway and I spot it nearly every night on my way home, but didn’t realize it was just a…

Today: Ultimate Bootcamp, Days 5 and 6.
[tweetmeme source=”elizabethev” only_single=false]With the excitement of last Thursday’s BPS “skip day” (essentially, a non-event) behind us, the gates at our usual parking spot along the beach were open on Monday morning. Despite waking up a full 15 minutes before my alarm, I felt a little…

Today: Ultimate Bootcamp, Days 3 and 4.
[tweetmeme source=”elizabethev” only_single=false]Day 3 was all about the legs. And I was all about going to bed at 8:30 PM. Waking up on Wednesday was harder than the previous two days, but I worked until 9:30 the night before and stayed up later than planned,…

Today: The first signs of spring.
[tweetmeme source=”elizabethev” only_single=false]On our first walk of the day (which was delayed due to the fact that dogs don’t understand daylight savings time any better than humans), Clark and I spotted the first crocuses to bloom in our neighborhood. With temperatures landing just shy of…

Today: Surprise! You’re too old for this.
[tweetmeme source=”elizabethev” only_single=false]Being both an amateur detective and a bit of a control freak, I am certain I am not an easy person to surprise. Nick, with the help of my sister, somehow pulled it off, though. He put together the perfect birthday celebration. I…

Today: It’s good to live by the ocean.
It’s good to live by the ocean. It’s good to have a place nearby where you can escape from the concrete and pavement, the stress and the worry. It’s good to see where land and sea meet, where the horizon stretches out before you. I…
