So, I’m sort of pissed at the groundhog. Does the groundhog ever not see his or her shadow???? It just seems like every single year that little rodent sees its shadow. But I don’t really feel like I can complain too much about winter this year. The groundhog gets a big “whatever” from me today.…… Continue reading Really Groundhog?
So. It is February 1st and I have spring fever. Something is wrong with this picture. It was 57 degrees today. At 3:20 I decided to take some comp time and leave work early. I sort of rushed home, changed into my running clothes and hit the road for over four miles. It was SO…… Continue reading Spring Fever
Congratulations in getting through day one of the work week (at least for most of us – some of my blog readers start their work week on Tuesdays). Do you ever just want to pat yourself on the back for getting through a day? I sort of want to today. But I’m resisting 🙂 I…… Continue reading 2012 – Day 30: A Case of the Mondays
This weekend was a really interesting mix of low key moments and getting together with friends. I made sure to get some rest so that my work week will (hopefully) not feel as daunting to me. Friday I worked late, yet again. But thankfully I went out to dinner with two of my friends after…… Continue reading Weekend Recap
Hello there bloggies. Tonight is a brief recap, because I am exhausted, in bed, and nearly falling asleep. The week is almost over but tomorrow will be the longest day of the week for me. Yesterday I had this for breakfast: Ha – not the entire container, but the last of it. Probably about 6…… Continue reading 2012: Day 26. You Never Regret A Workout
Ok, so no one said running was easy, or pretty. Sometimes the things you have to deal with are down right disgusting. Blisters anyone? Bleeding nipples? <– Ok, I’ve only had a couple of my guy friends experience this horrible issue, but it is one of the more disheartening aspects of this sport) Being hit…… Continue reading 2012 – Day 24: The Nitty Gritty
Winter has arrived in New England – better late than never? That would be my usual spiel… but this year I was definitely benefiting from not having a lot of snow on the ground. I have had to move a lot of my running to the treadmill in the last couple of days – I…… Continue reading Winter
The other day I was reading another cooking blog, Je Mange la Ville and I came across a recipe for Black Bean soup. The moment I read the recipe I knew I wanted to make this. It was great to be inspired again to cook. (I’ve been a slacker – the Saturday morning healthy mac…… Continue reading Black Bean Soup Recipe
Wow, I am so ready to hit the hay – but I wanted to do a brief recap before I do. I was able to get up a little earlier than I did the day before, it has been hard to get up so early this week. Is it because it is so cold? I…… Continue reading 2012 – Day 18 National Soup Day
Bring it on Monday. That was my Facebook status at 5:40 AM this morning. Woo – hoo. I actually woke up on a Monday morning feeling energized and ready to start the week. I guess it helps to know that I have a three day weekend ahead of me. (I’m hoping for some decent running…… Continue reading 2012 – Day Nine: Bring it on Monday…
