Catching up

What with tutoring my ESL student and volunteering at the elementary school, I've not found a lot of free time to update my blog recently. So, here are a few highlights of the last week:

time for swimming at the pool;







a night out at the Wheeler Opera House in Aspen for the On Stage Live 2010 show:
downtown Aspen



architectural detail at the Wheeler









setting up the stage -- no photos during the show!









cappuccinos before the show








thankfully, our car does great in all this snow.







And today is prep day for my colonoscopy. Gross, I know, but it's saving my life and I'd like to think I'm helping others to see that they should go out and get theirs. It's not all that bad, and like I said, COLONOSCOPIES SAVE LIVES! So, here's what's on the menu for today:


I'd like to know who named the product "MoviPrep?" It's not at all about movies......






Until later......

Thanksgiving walk

Walking off the turkey dinner. The temperature had warmed up to a toasty 18 degrees. The sun was shining so beautifully on Mt. Sopris.

Need some quiet time

The first part of this week has been so busy. Doctor appointment (new city, new doc, makes me so nervous), climbing a mountain, spending the day in the elementary school library, evening concert, and tutoring -- and always in the background, how will DH's retirement really affect us?
~~~So, for a little while, I'd like to be this swan that I photographed earlier this month. She was just floating on the water, her beak tucked neatly under her wing, paddling just a little with one foot, so she stayed circling in one spot ever so calmly on the lake. Sounds good to me right now!
