Fernando’s<\/span><\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

I took the girls out for supper last night to a new Mexican Restaurant called Fernando’s. Of course we had to try it out since I love Mexican food and our darling dog is named Fernando. Peter was in Vancouver at meetings.<\/p>\n

It was very busy down town last night. Fernando’s was busy too and very chilly outside! We had to park about 6 blocks from the restaurant. Walking back to the van proved to be very chilly. We stopped half way at a Starbucks for hot coco.<\/div>\n
I love being down town at night. Peter is not big on the down town but I like it. I am always on the look out for interesting people and adventure. My girls are the three most interesting persons on earth but I am always open to meeting others. Unfortunately no new interesting people out and about last night.\u00a0<\/div>\n
Where were you other interesting people last night? Next time try and be out and about when I need you.<\/div>\n
Just returned from my Hep A shot. Now I am immune for life. It is snowing in Kelowna. The biggest snow fall ever last night and today. The snow plows can’t keep up!
Tabs is home with a sore throat–too much choir! The girl has belonged to 3 separate choirs this past two months! She sings for an hour + daily. However, I believe it is actually a cold type virus. Pip has had it this past week too.
Tonight, Peter is finally home from Van. Date night! I am wanting to see a movie down town. Hope it stops snowing so we can. Sometimes, the snow plows stop working after 4PM so if it snows a lot after that, one cannot make it up the mountain until they plow the next morning.<\/p>\n

Excited as I dropped my quest to find Buddhist sanga in Kelowna (community). The pressure to meditate with a group shut me down. I prefer to meditate alone, just before bed and get my sanga from a yearly visit to a ashram. I honestly don;t have 2 hours each week to meditate at the yoga house in the evening. I am too busy. And honestly, my personality is one that likes action. I am doing hot yoga and Zumba in the evenings instead. Zumba instead of latin dance because #1 I can’t find a willing male dance partner: if you are out there please give me a call! #2 Zumba is at Tabs school gym at night–a five minute drive–convieniencce means a lot to me in the evening! Bikram’s is too expensive. They don’t give student discounts and they don’t do punch cards. However hot yoga is offering $12 a time student classes this year–so I am taking them up on it Monday evenings. Yes, the floor is heated along with the room to over 100 degress F. I feel like a piece of bacon sizzling around during corpse pose–but beggars can’t be choosers!<\/p>\n

My paper was accepted for an international conference–YAY! It means though, writing like a crazed woman for 2 weeks to make the final copy deadline. I love my thesis though. Good stuff. I am so happy with my research. It is very exciting. I may not be able to leave academia behind after my MA is done–I love feeling connected to something much bigger than me and my research–this whole communication revolution is a fun ride!<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
