Where in the world is Carmen Sandiego???

It has been over one month since my last post and I am suffering from extreme blog guilt. Why the long wait between posts? I have a multitude of excuses ranging from the petty - can't find the camera to take a picture, to the even more pathetic - suffering from borderline obsession with the new fall schedule. Instead of continuing to delay a new blogpost, I will update the entire month of September and half the month of October in less than 300 words. This wrongly suggests that the month was boring or uneventful - I assure you that this is not the case. In fact, this fall has been a crazy, crazy time of year.

1. Finding my Ommmmmm

For the entire month of September I attended an intensive yoga class. I can now touch my toes and stand on my head. I am still working towards that whole calm/meditative thing...

2. Can-napalooza 2008

This fall saw the canning of many fruits and vegetables. In the end I am left with a cupboard of jams, jellies, chutneys and preserves.

3. Royal Victoria Marathon

I ran my first official 1/2 marathon in Victoria. It was a wonderful 21 km, as in I spent the entire time wondering how the heck I am going to run an additional 21 km in a little more than a month.

4. Shades of Gray

The living room was painted a boring shade of gray. I still can't talk about it.
