Page: Feed: --- ## [Best, better, best](https://whathappened.family.blog/2026/08/21/best-better-best/) _2026-08-21 · TheRealTamara · this is our life_ If you could relive one day from your past, which day would it be and why? The day Burt and I went on our 2nd date. A day that led us to the many years we had together. ## [Back to the “from before”](https://whathappened.family.blog/2026/08/17/back-to-the-from-before-2/) _2026-08-17 · TheRealTamara · this is our life_ Here’s the story of the picture \[L\] with the Blues Brothers vibe; I’ve shared this at length with A. who was curious about this photo in my pictorial. It’s a memory from the 2nd year that Burt and I were together. We were invited to party for Judith E’s birthday–who was married to Jim M, Continue reading "Back to the “from before”" ## [Stay calm](https://whathappened.family.blog/2026/08/14/stay-calm-2/) _2026-08-14 · TheRealTamara · this is our life_ My role as a caregiver to a person with \[Lewy Body\] dementia demands I get acquainted with psychosis. A calm and contained demeanor is preferred to one in which I freak out. In a tour of an exhibit in which art and psychiatry crossed paths, it became clear to me that the psychotic makes me Continue reading "Stay calm" ## [Writing group](https://whathappened.family.blog/2026/08/14/writing-group/) _2026-08-14 · TheRealTamara · this is our life_ Focus on yourself. Your loved one will never get short shrift under your watch. The gaze of self-care is usually a bit myopic. Chances are that you will draw the shorter end of the stick as you walk the journey with your person. You will learn to advocate. You will be aware of signs and Continue reading "Writing group" ## [Burt’s on top of it](https://whathappened.family.blog/2026/08/12/burts-on-top-of-it-2/) _2026-08-12 · TheRealTamara · this is our life_ From August 2024 The “job search” seems to have ended in a mystery job. Mystery to me, at least, but it is vague to Burt as well. He wants me to get him business cards (albeit they’re round, as he describes them). He assigns numbers to his staff, and I am #1 tomorrow, then #2 Continue reading "Burt’s on top of it" ## [Pictured](https://whathappened.family.blog/2026/08/05/pictured/) _2026-08-05 · TheRealTamara · this is our life_ There was a box I had labeled pictures. It was an activity box I had put together for Burt. Actually a box of memory for us to look at what life had been like, recently, and in our past. I opened it yesterday and left the albums out for me to peruse. There we were Continue reading "Pictured" ## [Curiouser](https://whathappened.family.blog/2026/08/05/curiouser/) _2026-08-05 · TheRealTamara · this is our life_ What are you curious about? You, you have caught my attentionAnd piqued my curiosity. What is itYou do? Why are you going so fast? Is there a race in your mind to whichI remain uninvited? Where is it you go?Are you in a hurry? Silly question. You are. Speed slowed automobileDevelopment. It was a distraction. Continue reading "Curiouser" ## [The last months](https://whathappened.family.blog/2026/07/25/the-last-months/) _2026-07-25 · TheRealTamara · this is our life_ This morning, I was rereading posts from the days and months before Burt died. It’s pretty clear that I had been aware since November, around his birthday, of how much he had begun to decline. This was unlike the dips we’d gone through before. There were hopeful posts expecting further help for Burt’s care, starting Continue reading "The last months" ## [We are humble: patience](https://whathappened.family.blog/2026/07/24/we-are-humble-patience/) _2026-07-24 · TheRealTamara · this is our life_ This is not a brag Caregiving carries with it a grand responsibility. Rather than make us grandiose, it humbles us. One of my caregiver friends is as thrilled by the purple umbrella she gifted herself as a diva is by pearls, champagne and fancy chocolates. No diva, but a queen of caring. My own experience Continue reading "We are humble: patience" ## [Love-and-marriage.2](https://whathappened.family.blog/2026/07/20/love-and-marriage-2/) _2026-07-20 · TheRealTamara · this is our life_ We’ve talked about love during caregiving, but I have not been forthright about sex. We don’t talk about that in polite society as my mother would assert. Let’s be honest, LBD destroys intimacy. A visiting carer who came by to see Burt was not circumspect. She suggested I should connect with someone in circumstances like Continue reading "Love-and-marriage.2" ## [Point once, get highlights (Sponsored)](https://crawlproof.com/a/yayW0ea62AJu) _2026-07-20 · **Sponsored**_ Get minutes worth watching from a whole game — point once ## [Good fortune](https://whathappened.family.blog/2026/07/10/good-fortune/) _2026-07-10 · TheRealTamara · this is our life_ What’s a chapter of your life you’d title “The Hard Years” — and what got you through it? The obvious answer would be the journey I took with Burt once he was diagnosed with Lewy Body. The journey, as it turns out, had so many positives. It brought out a side of me I hadn’t Continue reading "Good fortune" ## [Where you at?](https://cyclingindoors.co.uk/where-you-at/) _2026-04-25 · Chris · Cycling Indoors_ I m still cycling away. Only on Zwift no more outdoors since the crash. I m putting my effort into BikeClimbs.com instead of here. See you there or not 🙂 ## [Dual Purposes of a Plea Bargaining Simulation: Pedagogical Skills Training and Controlled Data Collection Experiment About Crime Victim’s Access to Justice Via Counsel](https://www.repository.law.indiana.edu/ijlse/vol14/iss1/8) _2026-02-27 · Tung Yin · Indiana Journal of Law and Social Equality_ ## [True Man, Captive Mother: Abortion as a Fundamental Self-Defense Right](https://www.repository.law.indiana.edu/ijlse/vol14/iss1/7) _2026-02-27 · Nicholle Vandy · Indiana Journal of Law and Social Equality_ Abortion healthcare has faced significant challenges since the Supreme Court held in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization that there exists no constitutional right to abortion. Contrastingly, the right to bear arms, grounded in the right to self-defense, has strong constitutional protections, as highlighted in New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen . The extension of the right… ## [Bridging the Digital Divide: The Role of Evolving Space Law in Ensuring Equitable Access and Ethical Use of Climate Data](https://www.repository.law.indiana.edu/ijlse/vol14/iss1/6) _2026-02-27 · Caitlin B. Riordan · Indiana Journal of Law and Social Equality_ ## [Reimagining Self-Regulation in Sexual Misconduct Complaints: Trust Through Transfer](https://www.repository.law.indiana.edu/ijlse/vol14/iss1/5) _2026-02-27 · Allyson M. McBride · Indiana Journal of Law and Social Equality_ To increase trust in the judiciary’s ability to self-regulate, any formal complaints about a judge should not be handled by a colleague down the hall, but a judge from a different circuit. In this Comment, I propose automatic transfer out of circuit to improve the handling of sexual misconduct complaints specifically. I first describe the different ways judicial conduct is regulated in the federal… ## [Incarcerated Persons’ Day in the Sun: Why Prisoners Should Have a Right to Fresh Air and Direct Sunlight](https://www.repository.law.indiana.edu/ijlse/vol14/iss1/4) _2026-02-27 · David Gross · Indiana Journal of Law and Social Equality_ One word sums up the current state of a prisoner’s right s to fresh air and direct sunlight: conditionality. Because the rights are conditional in the United States, the sword of litigation hangs above prisons while residents are subject to violations of their limited constitutional rights. International law and medical research respectively recognize the right to, and need for, outdoor… ## [Vice, Morality, and Immigration: Critiquing and Examining the Application of Legal Moralism in the Criminalization of Immigrants for Vice-Related Crimes](https://www.repository.law.indiana.edu/ijlse/vol14/iss1/3) _2026-02-27 · Sofia Garcia · Indiana Journal of Law and Social Equality_ ## [Clemency for Justice Reform: A Restorative Pardon Proposal Using Conditional Pardons](https://www.repository.law.indiana.edu/ijlse/vol14/iss1/2) _2026-02-27 · Stephanie A. Clark · Indiana Journal of Law and Social Equality_ President Donald Trump’s pardons to people convicted for the January 6, 2021 attacks on the Capitol intensified the nation’s divisiveness. They also illustrate why proper clemency must be restored and used for its intended purpose to ameliorate injustice under the law. Clemency is not meant to be a “get out of jail free card” solely for family, friends, and political supporters. It is a… ## [Making Room for Cultural Humility in an Anti-DEI Space](https://www.repository.law.indiana.edu/ijlse/vol14/iss1/1) _2026-02-27 · Shelley Ward Bennett · Indiana Journal of Law and Social Equality_ This Article analyzes the intersection of state anti-diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) laws and the American Bar Association (ABA) Standard 303(c)’s cross-cultural competency education mandate and offers suggestions for how these policies can coexist. The surge in anti-DEI laws issued in twenty states over the last four years has created challenges and uncertainty for public law schools and… ## [Find what they just said (Sponsored)](https://crawlproof.com/a/zNKvmiCnkWP8) _2026-02-27 · **Sponsored**_ Surface recent public signals so you can send policy-aware, relevant outreach ## [JBS’s Initial Public Offering: Threats to Environmental and Human Rights](https://www.repository.law.indiana.edu/ijlse/vol13/iss2/7) _2025-11-18 · Kayla Thompson · Indiana Journal of Law and Social Equality_ This paper centers around the decision to be made regarding JBS, the world’s largest meat company, wanting to list shares on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), and the environmental and social impacts that could result from the Security and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) approval.

I went for the Sweet Spot session just to mix things up from doing tempo yesterday. When it got to the end of this one I couldn t help myself to stay on and finish the last ~1km of the lap, so I managed to do slightly over 30 minutes which ... Read more ## [Craving Fresh Air](https://cyclingindoors.co.uk/craving-fresh-air/) _2025-02-12 · Chris · Cycling Indoors_ A steady tempo session was the order of the day today. I m finding these shorter sessions really rather frustrating currently, but my time slots are what they are. I could either ride before work or after work, but neither appeal. I prefer my lunch time rides. I d say mentally I m in a better state to ... Read more ## [Just A Grind](https://cyclingindoors.co.uk/just-a-grind/) _2025-02-11 · Chris · Cycling Indoors_ I didn t do a session on Saturday, opting instead to go for a nice countryside walk. The reasons are what I ve covered previously, which are that getting some fresh air is preferable to spending yet more hours in front of the computer. Such are the hazards of riding solely indoors. However, after Thursday s ride last ...

One thing I m finding is that when riding now, I have the work laptop open, and I can see message (after message, after message) arriving on Slack as I ride. All queued up and waiting for my perusal ... Read more ## [Feeling A Bit Brighter](https://cyclingindoors.co.uk/feeling-a-bit-brighter/) _2025-02-05 · Chris · Cycling Indoors_ Another straightforward session today. In some ways it is frustrating to do shorter sessions, at least once under way it can be annoying to have to stop at 30 minutes. But the reality is right now that I m time pressured. Hopefully that will change over the next ~4 weeks, but I kinda doubt it. Some ... Read more ## [Thirty Short Fast Minutes](https://cyclingindoors.co.uk/thirty-short-fast-minutes/) _2025-02-05 · Chris · Cycling Indoors_ I think the trick right now is to do something. Whilst 30 minutes on the bike is not going to do that much, it s still better than 30 minutes sat in front of the TV. That s the mindset I went in to this ride with. And truthfully I think that s where I m going to be ... Read more ## [Going Through The Motions](https://cyclingindoors.co.uk/going-through-the-motions/) _2025-02-01 · Chris · Cycling Indoors_ It s been a couple of weeks since I was last on the bike. That’s not to say I haven’t been active—I’ve just chosen to walk instead of cycle. The reason for that is fairly straightforward: when it comes to cycling, I currently can t leave the house. That’s partly a personal choice, whether for safety or ...

It s the longest ride I ve done in quite a while. I m not entirely sure how long ago it was that I last rode for more than an hour, but recently my rides have been around the 45-minute mark. This ride was almost ...

I was going to do my own race like I did last time. An advantage of Training Peaks Virtual is the ability to set up your own on-demand races and fill the field with bots.
