This past Friday, I had to walk away from a man I love. After being just friends for 3 years, and being together for 4, I had to walk away. We had a long distance relationship, and it was time for it to end. I finally forced myself to talk to him...do you love me? What do you want? Just TALK...

I am looking at buying the new series as a digital download. I have several Apple devices I can use to play them on my tv, but I'm looking at storing them on an external hard drive and using a media player to play them. I dont want to keep them on my iPhone or iPad all the time, and I don't...

:D I'm down here by myself this Thanksgiving, mainly because I have to work through the weekend. I will not cook some huge meal for myself, so I am having Pizza for my Thanksgiving meal!!! However, I am being good, and am going to get in my workout (Athletic Training today), and I did...

I got my new dvds just in time for my workout today. I decided to do the Afterburn express mix (1-10) to start out. Now, I've been on vacation for the last 10 days, so I'm a little off due to that, but boy this workout made me feel sooooo out of of shape! :confused:The cardio factor was way...

I have recently started trying to bake bread. I am using the Healthy Bread in 5 Minutes a Day book. I am having issues getting the bread to have any oven spring when baking. This last batch of dough rose beautifully...this is so frustrating. I have been baking it in my Romertopf cooker, and I...

I just got back tonight from 2 weeks in Southern Italy. It was my first time to Europe, and was it a wild time!!! We started out in Naples, rented a car and drove down to a small village called Laurito (in the mountains). This is a small medieval village with a church that dates back to the...

It is some kind of cold outside, even down here in southern LA. No sun at all today, and more rain tonight with possible icing. I don't know about you guys, but cold weather like this makes me want to cook. I have a huge pot of minestrone soup on the stove right now. This recipe is so...

I am planning to ditch the $80 cable bill soon. I am getting an antenna for my big tv so I can pick up all the network stations in HD over the air. I already have Netflix and Hulu, but am looking for a more integrated way of getting them to the tv. I can stream Netlfix via the Wii, but Hulu...

I just had my first look at the new workout dvds today. What is wrong with the picture? The images are grainy, or better yet, pixelated. I don't know what to call it really, but it certainly isn't clear. I have two very recent HD televisions and dvd players (that can read any format), and...

I made my first batch of pizzelle tonight. I used a traditional Italian recipe with anise and vanilla extract. They weren't hard to make, but I think they are kind of blah tasting. I add extra sweetener, but it didn't really help. Any ideas out there?

My kitty Josie has some kind of allergy that we are trying to cope with. She is constantly licking her belly and one leg, almost to the point of it being raw. We are working with a vet....trying different things. Right now I am have to give her an antihistamine to help relieve the...

I just did the first Forza workout. I started out with 1 pound gloves on my hands...had to ditch those. This is a real workout for the arms, particularly the shoulders and a little biceps and forearms. My hands also got tired. It is hard to learn to control the bokken so you can make...

I love my iPhone. I can just whip it out when I don't have my big camera handy. I can't wait until I get the newer version which has a better camera. There are so many cool apps to work with too. http://www.flickr.com/photos/rmockmt/5087137061/...

I recently finished a 6 month rotation of STS. I was very pleased with my stength gains. I'm lifting heavier than I ever thought I could. I'm taking a break from STS for a couple of months. I decided this month to do more circuit training to change things up. All I can say is that it...

Yesterday was the opening of our kiosk at the local mall. We had tons of people stop by, got lots of donations, and had two kittens adopted. Here are some more pics http://www.flickr.com/photos/rmockmt/5005830284/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/rmockmt/5005829020/in/photostream/...

I had another photo assignment last night for our local Project Purr. I have learned that kittens have ADD. They can be really hard to work with, but two of the three I had last night were great posers. http://www.flickr.com/photos/rmockmt/4980964703/...

I am in the last month of STS. I chose to do the 6 month rotation to give myself more time to build my strength. I'm in Meso 3 now. I am constantly amazed by the heavier and heavier weights I am lifting. It might be hard the first week, but then it seems pretty easy the second time around...

Today was my first day shooting photos of cats for Project Purr. Project Purr is an group which rescues cats from death row at various animal control facilities in our city. I really can't foster any animals since I already have 3 to take care of, but I can take their pictures.....a great way...

I spent some time in Death Valley National Park this past February...been working on my images. There is no way I can post them here...they are all just too complex and the files are too large. You can see them at http://www.flickr.com/photos/rmockmt/ I've got more images to do for the...

These pictures on the front of our newspaper had me so upset today. We all feel helpless...http://www.2theadvocate.com/news/95605109.html
