With the farewell post from Back in Skinny Jeans earlier this year, I am also slowly trying to stop writing about weight loss. At some point, weight should be a none issue in a woman’s life. I am proud of the fact that I write about the many facets of health that we deal with from making food choices to to our health insurance.
Prior to leaving, I was a little worried about gaining weight when so much of the trip was focused on food. My husband and I made a list of food we would like to try while we were in Rome and Athens first. The list for sightseeing came much later.
Being censured is not what blogging is about. I love the freedom of being able to write without thinking about how people will react to my posts before I made the stupid mistake of raving about this new wonderful hobby of mine.
Being deadly afraid of catching the flu (swine?) from my office before my vacation, I have been drinking Emergen-C at the slightly hint that I might come down with something. Hearing all these stories of co-workers with young children sick from the flu, makes me take drastic measures such as washing my hands, using a paper towel to open door handles, and using hand sanitizer.

This episode of the Juice talks about tips on how to stay in shape when you are traveling.

With only three months left and so many details unplanned, I am starting to feel overwhelm about the wedding. At first every one wants to help, but only if I agree with their suggestions. Now I am tying tiny little bows [...]

I finally figured out why certain posts keep getting comment spam vs. other posts on my blog. Whenever a reader insert one of my posts url on a forum, I notice that I would get massive amounts of comment spams for that post.
Five posts on my blog generate 90% of my comment spam.

I am addicting to blogs. I love reading them and I love writing mine. And every once in a while, I read a post that makes me think, ‘I would love to share this!’
This post is a roundup of great posts that might offer some help in this recession (aka. freebies).

With some trepidation, I decided that I am going to publish my posts with full RSS feed and monitor its misuse per Jonathan Bailey’s advice. Am I afraid? Oh yes. How can you not be afraid when you embank on a different path than the course you originally set for yourself? But more than anything else, I am afraid this might mean that I will see more pieces of my life on another blog.
