Oh my goodness, what a day!! This morning I caught the 6 a.m. Pittsburgh flyer. Fabulous! I was on time today. For someone who's not a morning person I had a great morning conversation with sponsor's during breakfast of their feedback. So off to the exhibitor's booths. It felt like Christmas as I was on the look-out for stickers for my laptop and Moleskine. What a morning challenge, my very

I've been known to become a bit impatient, or go to the other extreme to procrastinate. However, one thing that I do pat myself on is being early or on-time for events. I feel you can miss much rushing to an event. It reminds me of the different modes of transportation. Driving is too fast to notice the a single violet growing on the side of the road. Walking will work, but I feel that

Well hello, again. So much has occurred over the past couple of years. However, cycling was not one of my occurrences. When I originally thought of starting blogging it was more of a means of journalling. I had absolutely no idea that the last title post would have such significance in my life. Yet I knew a change of course had to be established in order for me to survive the bombardment of

Well just a little setback while trying to pull myself up by my bootstrap. The setback? Him. Yes, I've been quickly bit by that summer fickled thing called 'Love'. Was it really ever, or just a grown-ups crush? So now back to the task at hand, but isn't relationships part of one's health? I always thought it was. We all need balance. So I've completed two rides on Felty, but costs for the journal

It's been a long time and I thought I gave my brain a rest to just work on my body. Now that I'm minus 200 pounds there's still more to do. Yet I've been feeding my ADD in the meantime with all this social media-ness, which I've sucked myself into. I called my Bubby one early morning and after speaking with him for a few minutes I realized I've been missing out on life. I've allowed myself to

So now that the first quarter of the year is almost finished I hope that everyone has had a great incoming fall season, Thanksgiving and holidays. Yes, I'm still busy, dreadfully busy.....reading and losing weight.I've finished reading David Allen's 'Getting Things Done', Drs.

After hearing months of difficulties of Apple batteries I decided to check to see if I was crammed with the rest of the victims. Unfortunately, the answer was 'yes'. Powerbook's are now on the endangered list. In particular, my G4-12, and I'm not that concerned 'cause the battery has always been hot since the day I carried it home.

Have you recently had one of those mornings when you've gotten out of bed 15 minutes late to barely take a shower let alone eat, but knowing it's going to be a long day you need your ipod? On the way to running out of the bathroom to the kitchen you check your bag and then look up to find itunes long slow list of progress. You look a bit closer in Downloads to find your favorite podcast episodes

After being featured in Bicycling magazine Freddie Hoffman still rides even today.  He has recently been interviewed  on ABC News and on the way put atleast 70 miles under his belt along the way.  During the interview he explains how inspite of a difficult birth and brain damage he's just like the rest of us.  A man who loves his mother, family, bike and the inspiration of flying to the moon.  He

As I sit here in the library, the funeral for the Mayor of Pittsburgh has begun.  The route will be almost throughout the east-end of town then onto the cemetary.  At the same time a Steelers game is today. So I'm going to try to head out of dodge although most of the streets along the 10-mile route have been closed.  Only an eight-month term, but The Lord is gracious knowing how much he wanted

As with anyone's life two weeks can render sometimes render madness. Well image four weeks between relocating and getting used to a new apartment, a new semester starting at the same time of your move and to top it all off your online services are basically scrapped. I've been out of the saddle since between moving, not feeling well, unpacking, and studying with atleast seven to ten volumes of

It's 3 a.m. and due to Independence day celebrations I'm unable to sleep. That's partially true. I'm fretting why I have only received one updated podcast. I know the entire world does not celebrate the same Independence day on the same day, at the same time. So after visting one of my favorite podcasts, Top of The Pods, I noticed their July 4th show did not download. So my thought was ok

One of the most expensive pieces of technology known to the US public is loading humans to, once again, venture into outerspace.As it continually rains here in the northeast, accuweather.com show's just a little rain activity. My question is why do we spend so many billions of dollars when we need to invest in humans here on this planet. Yet I understand, use it or lose it. So we're almost 90

One of the few reasons why I have not been riding is due to a couple of my favorite podcasts and websites related to Mr. Allen's GTD. If you've been living under a rock even comedians have added GTD into their skits. Well honestly, it's no laughing matter when you receive atleast over 100, or even 300+ internal emails that require an action. Just get yourself up and come visit.I've soaked up

Oh, wait a minute. Maybe not...I'm actually laying on the bed listening to the flooding of the roads and trees.  An enormous rain cloud is probably flooding WV, PA and OH. All at the same time. My hope is that it will help the trees that are extremely late blooming. Personally, my thought is that all the tearing down of trees has hindered the season cross-pollenation of some   species.  That or

Is this homage to the WTC? Coincidence? Maybe, maybe not. After the initial repairs of the PATH station were made to return full service downtown, it appears Apple has created an underground store. The look and feel reminds me of visiting that little pub just to the left of the first set of elevator/stairs before ascending to the main vertical corridor to street level at the old WTC. Will

Sabbath was beautiful!! Now today is the third day straight that it's been raining. The trees are in dire need of watering and this will save on landscaping costs of watering your yard twice daily. Yet, I have this fear that a repeat of September 27, 2004 may arise. The three rivers at Point State Point swelled and overflowed into Point State park.However, my friends and family are holding on

Spring is slowly blooming the countryside and it's made me realize that I must wake up. I have a desire, but I dont' know for what. The death of a family member can linger in your mind and turn your brain into a serious omelette. I thought I was fine, but I guess I'm wrong. There's a horrid fear, which has me stuck. My open-minded and sunshine outlook is stuck in this past winter. I

It's 12:40 a.m. and I'm listening to the three recent shows from Top of The Pods, my favorite podcast.I'm waiting with bated breath of a new introduction, which sounds like James Brown having a fit.

No luck as of yet, but in my search a man approached me for help.The chain of libraries are not on one accord with their wireless and as this gentleman explained how he followed the established instructions to no avail. I jumped at the opportunity to help him. As he opened his Dell I turned his

At the close of sabbath the family continued our discussion which transposed into book authors of the 1800's. It appeared a bit bright in pittsburgh and we wondered when to close the sabbath. come to find atleast three inches of snow outside. it's sunday now and it has snowed practically all day, non-stop, so instead of heading out i've been on a commandn.tv binge.

I'm sitting in the school's computer lab, which is predominately filled with macs. However, there is a row of hp pc's. The macs are on all night while the hp's must be boot-strapped cold. Every ms start up theme I hear I want to load this prank.Yes, it is rare for me to visit the website of a podcast, but I'm highly attracted to some Canadians who like to travel about spewing tech websites and

One of the first items that I have loading on my laptop is the dashboard kickstarter widget to wake up and connect my widgets from dragging along. I decided not to increase my memory, but to scale back on installing so much software that I would not use on a daily basis. Now if there's an application for me to create my blogs and upload them at a later date that would be fabulous.One of my

Remember that extra second we were given at the count down of the new year. Where did it go?I'm sitting in the university library and just realized that it is the 23rd of January. I thought they were trying to sync the atomic clock. Are they sure they did it correctly. Are they going to do this every time the earth slips a bit off its axis? Because if so we're truly going to ruin the clocks.

So the Christmas holiday break from school is over. Woo hoo:( :(Do I sound happy? Truthfully? Well, I am. Waiting in the hall for a classmate and I lucked upon an iTunes playlist by the name of Moosik, whicih consists of 5000 songs from various genre's. You name the genre and year and ta-da! Songs I've never heard of and those that take me almost back to my birth.I couldn't understand who in

I hope that you have had a great Christmas, Channukah, and Kwanzaa, but I hope you have a fabulous Eids and New Year. As with most major holidays I spend mine alone. Peace and quiet, too quiet at times. So I cooked a few dishes to last through the Sabbath and Christmas weekend. I found myself, literally, rolls over rolls after reducing them during my summer rides. I am not disappointed

So it's almost time for a cornucopia of holidays. I've been off the bike, obviously, and have returned to one of my first loves: Technology!Yes this topic alone crosses many genre's, but as a young girl in the early 80's that could only mean Macintosh. My exposure grew during this decade as my first teenage employment was at a public relations firm producing newsletters, magazine editorials and

Being Jewish, Islamic and Christians we're to love each other and grow spiritually, but sometimes a part of the past gets a hold of my eyes and ears when I'm online searching for electronic books and how-to's (podcasts). I've been listening to this group since the early 90's, working in NYC corporate retail you're bound to come across some thought-provoking music. It's unfortunate how almost 15

Well we've safely rolled across Pennsylvania just to get to the NY metro area. Time has slipped through our fingers while visiting family, but I managed to pull a solo ride to my favorite parts of town.I forgot home was actually on a hill. I was under the impression that we lived on the flats. Tells you how long I've been away from riding. So many things have changed, from levelling the local

Finally found the time to get PBG-412's software up-to-date, again, and downloaded some widgets. It's a blah morning as the rain and dark clouds have hidden the beautiful sky and bright sun. The rain will continue until tomorrow then the rest of the week will be sunny. Unfortunately, the temps going to drop to the hi-30's. So I guess I'll hibernate.I was looking at the sunlite widget and the

I'm a billion dollars short and 25 days late. I've finally settled in after my trip to New England. I was a bit interested in taking photo's, but after going through security each time I'm glad I chose otherwise.The laptop's working great and I've updated some software.

So after much preparing and pruning of items to pack. I'm finally down to an average of five to seven shirts and pants, and practically all of my cycling clothes.I'm glad the clocks fell back an hour, which gave me time to do laundry, shop, wash, and arrange some personal cycling gear. Just as a precaution. For a sunny Sunday not many people are the on road so it took us an hour and ten minutes

Last night at school there was just so much going on in my head with traveling to New England that I dumped out three long postings. Yet there are times when your best made plans go awry. You'll have to check back in the future for those three reports, which will include this late fall season of travel.After not having much success at Carnegie library's wi-fi I decided to visit one of my

I've finally made the committment. Ever since the early 80's I had wanted to own my own Apple product. I almost obtained one of Apples first notebooks, but I was veered away as any money would be for school and the responsibility of paying rent while living at home. Oh the lessons we try to teach kids when all they truly want to do is enjoy their time not being an adult.So now, almost 40, I

Well it's another day and I need to ride. A previous spill is challenging my spin for my right knee. Preparing to ride outdoors this fall and winter is proving to be a challenge already. The need for tights, gloves, base layers, buffs, warm long-sleeve jerseys, and wind- and rain-proof gear has escaped my fingers until now. Prior to heading to Pitt I went to the local Hoss's restaurant, which

My assumption is that either we're riding, helping groups ready for Bike Month, snowed- or rained-in, or just hanging out at about a few forums. Now that's after work, taking care of the family, house, pets, friends, etc.However, it can be the other way and let life fall by the way-side and obsess about bikes, which I'm guilty of..I pass by a shop 40 miles from home. The silver folding, which

Yesterday was eventful. Had a large salad and Dr. Pepper. Afterwards spent over an hour in the Christian bookstore them spent over three hours pouring over tech mags. I'm pondering a Dell laptop , or a T3-SonyEricson and future wifi sd. I'd leave Sprint:-|

Whew..it finally happened. I'm currently happy and unemployed! Wooo Hoo!! If I had to spend one more day there I probably would have had a heart attack!

Well it's almost finished. It's been uneventful for the last couple of days. Finally Wednesday. I need some sleep! Please pardon this blog is under construction. Still trying to figure a way to post from my cellphone, but there's a coding issue. Try to enjoy the week because I'm having difficulty with it...Ciao Bella!

Long weekend. My body has not caught up...can you imagine my poor brain? Mom called to say they are traveling from between hurricanes. Why does she think she's Wonder Woman? It's definitely family day. My little brother calls then my sister. I have not had this much weekend cell action in about a year. Ouch! Had to update each other on new jokes for my sister's birthday today. Happy Birthday

Finally back from traveling. Broke down and visited dad's side of the family. The next couple of weekends will be filled with trips to Philly then onto Richmond. This is going to get expensive. I did not go caching. Sad little ol me.

Well it rained for most the weekend. I've been stuck in the house with nothing to do but rest. Ya know you can't rest for 48 hours straight. I'm having second thoughts about visiting the family for my vacation. I must be getting antsy. However, we have a full moon out and we all have sticks on our shoulder's. What a joy:-)! I've got to learn to relax!! You ever feel like there's so much to do

Well no luck finding a Jeep at the local Toys R'Us. It's too late to cache at the Nature Park in Greensburg. Oh it's morning and the cell is ringing about the morning news. Ooh!! and a JEEP TB is in the area! It's  5 a.m. and I'm washed and dressed. Now to get the cachin' monkey up. Once I tell Jo what's going on she shifts into overdrive. Bypassing breakfast and Sheetz gas;  we hit the 24-hour

Not a enough sleep for me after waiting for Jo to finish night class yesterday. Too tired to breath, but checked yahoo for  my daily Jeep Geocache update. There's a cache two miles from the office. Left home at 6:15 a.m., boy am I running late. We must get it this morning or just forget about it. Oh well, cachin' buddy can't make it out.  12 p.m.: It's been snatached. Next time I'm calling in

I'm planning to go home and visit my immediate family in Jersey, but my dad's family has arranged a family gathering next month in Virginia. Not now, please, I need some rest and relaxation. Can you say Overdue like a library book with a $200 fine.  It has been over 30 years since I've seen any relatives from my dad's side of the family and currently not up to travelling.  People have been coming

Well today went extremely slow, but it's quiet now. Oh, I spoke too soon. I wish the phone lines would stop ringing. What fun...a shooting migraine above my eye. What next....?
