Hi Paula,
It’s Heather–former intern at PBN long long ago. Just wanted to say hi, I saw your blog on the Advertiser web site and enjoyed reading your lavagal blog, too. Sounds like you have a full and happy life- I’m so happy for you! I live in Oakland now with my husband (John, former reporter at PBN and the Advertiser), 4 year-old son and 2 year-old daughter.
Aloha!
Hi Heather!
So nice to hear from you. I appreciate your getting in touch with me! Mahalo for reading my blogs. I get a lot of satisfaction writing for them, but, they don’t add up to a block-buster novel! SIGH! Stay in touch! Are you on Facebook? Feel free to connect there! Aloha!
Aloha, Paula…Long time no see! How are things? I keep up with you on your great site!!!
Happy New Year and Gung Hee Fat Choy, mona
Aloha Paula,
I just got done reading your Sun,sea,surf, and salvaging one’s skin, I can’t wait to share your story with our SunEscaper friends. Sun Precaution and sun awareness is such an important topic.The harsh effects of the uva and uvb rays is staggering. Skin cancer has taken the lead over all other forms of cancer. Look forward to meeting you soon. Devra-SunEscaper
Paula,
Just read your blog entry about swimming. Are you training for the Waikiki Roughwater Swim in Sept.?

Hey sweetie! I believe, with you, it’s the “getting there” that matters, not the hard bod. I mean, you and I know that we can work ourselves to death and die with a soft spot on our tummy. You get something special from the accomplishment of these activities. It’s so obvious in all your writings. Every time I read a description about the work-out you just completed, I think “damn,that makes me want to go do some yoga” because yoga is what gives me that physical and spiritual high. Speaking of that, I need to go do some. Paula, don’t kill yourself if you don’t love it, but don’t let somebody saying that you “looked in pain” during your severe work-out give you grief. OF COURSE you looked like you were in pain. Look at those faces the the pros all make when they are hitting it. The SOUNDS…hehehe. Love you, you seriously incredibly beautiful woman.
