Michelle is someone I would like to know better. She is quietly efficient, though that phrase does not give justice to the way she makes things happen. She also makes beautiful costumes.

Michelle is a truly beautiful person. Gentle as a lamb and ferocious as a lion. There is passion in every interaction she has, not always visible but always crackling under the surface. I often wonder whether she is an introverted extrovert or and extroverted introvert... either way I like her just the way she is. I look forward to getting to know her better this year.

Mah, mah, mah Michelle...is a breath of calm in a torential storm. Whenever I see her, which is too seldom, she is surrounded by chaos but remains stedfast and only mildly ruffled. She has so very warm and welcoming to us "corset girls" and I will always go out of my way to help her out. I could wax poetic but I think she might start to blush...but I must mention that she has a wicked sense of humor as well as statuesque beauty...there now she's beet red. ; ^ }

Michelle is one of the kindest, most patient people I know. She is gracious & funny and a darned good person. She is forever linked in my mind to Hello Kitty - she can tell you why (or not).

Michelle is the Goddess of Get Things Done!
She's the most accomplished person I know - thorough to a fault, wise to the eyes... you need to know something - she's the one to ask. She's got magic hands, a quick wit, a keen intuition and a kind heart...plus she an read Japanese - how cool is that?

The Second Rule of Skating (in 1864)


It is not the object so much to skate fast, as to skate gracefully; and this is sooner and more easily learned by skating with deliberation; while it prevents overheating, and diminishes the chances of taking cold by cooling off too soon afterward.

Why You Need More Costumes

Ponderings and Promulgations

"His Holiness, the Dalai Lama, has said that having the mantra on your computer works the same as a traditional Mani wheel. As the digital image spins around on your hard drive, it sends the peaceful prayer of compassion to all directions and purifies the area."

It seems so very American...copy someone else's program so your computer can pray for you. I mean, so your computer can do your praying for you. If prayer wheels activated... read more

Wow!

At Tuesday's lesson, I noticed my blades were skittering instead of gripping the ice. I've finally skated long enough to need my skates resharpened. My health is returning and there's no stopping me now. Maybe next session I'll take two lessons a week and they'll need to be sharpened *twice* a year.

For the last couple of weeks, I've been getting home from work (late) and unwinding by reading all the interesting blog entries my friends are posting, and reading the various topics in the tribes I belong to. I've spent hours writing thoughtful comments to blogs and pithy answers to the various threads. I've been proofreading them and editing them, polishing them--then deleting them.

Yup. My new hobby seems to be NOT posting anything. My self-censorship is at an all-time high. I just... read more
