The Vacation Continues…

Yesterday AFM and I went around the area to assess the damage from Irene. I cannot believe how devastated some of the areas of upstate New York are… we are lucky that we opted to stay in New York – originally we had planned to go to Vermont, and the damage there is much worse.…… Continue reading The Vacation Continues…

I am on vacation… with Irene

Hey everyone. So, I am officially on vacation for the next several days. Vacation started at 3:20 PM on Friday. Yesterday AFM and I spent the day getting ready for hurricane Irene.  One thing I love about upstate New York is that there are so many farmer’s markets. We hit up a great market yesterday…… Continue reading I am on vacation… with Irene

Some else made the salad…

Yesterday I had a pretty amazing 1% latte from Starbucks. I walked in at 6:40 AM and was at work by 7:10 – what a great start to the day. I don’t know about you, but I always find lattes rather filling. I did not actually have breakfast until 9:30 yesterday morning when my stomach…… Continue reading Some else made the salad…

Peachy

I had the best peach for breakfast this morning! Because yesterday was a bit of a disastrous day for my stomach, I decided to switch up the breakfast routine a bit. Instead of my awesome smoothie I opted for a piece of whole wheat toast with peanut butter and a peach. I had no idea…… Continue reading Peachy

Who Said 1/2 Marathon Training Was Easy?

Well, not me. I was reading an article on half marathon training the other day. The author seemed to think that some people think that training for a half marathon is easy. (I am not one of those people, in case you were wondering.) I paid particular attention to one line in the article and…… Continue reading Who Said 1/2 Marathon Training Was Easy?

Runner’s Guilt…

So, what is up with runner’s guilt? I was not sure if this was a real thing when it popped into my head this morning as I was driving to work. But later in the day, I googled it and it is in fact a real thing. And I am suffering from it. Which stinks.…… Continue reading Runner’s Guilt…

Tuesday

From the moment I started waking up this morning, I could tell it was going to be one of those mornings. The first thought that popped into my head… how much sleep did  I actually get last night? The answer – frightening. Maybe 5 hours, if I was lucky. The second thought? How is today…… Continue reading Tuesday

Bring a Treat to Work Day

Apparently today was bring a treat to work day at the office. So even though I was annoyed by how much time I spent in the kitchen on Sunday preparing all of my healthy food and packing lunch and breakfast and making dinner for the week, when I got to work I was so happy…… Continue reading Bring a Treat to Work Day
