Random Thought for the Night

Ok. I really need to be going to bed – but I had this random thought, and figured I’d put it out there. As I was unpacking my groceries tonight, I got to thinking. I would LOVE to see what an elite runner’s refrigerator and pantry looks like. (Of course I’m thinking Kara Goucher [my…… Continue reading Random Thought for the Night

2012 – Day Eleven

Ok, so I have a bit of a cold, but so far it’s not quite as bad as I thought it would be. I think going to bed super early last night and sleeping in this morning might have helped. I’m also taking Zinc, drinking Echinacea Complete Care Wellness Tea, which might be helping. So…… Continue reading 2012 – Day Eleven

2012 – Day Ten

I started off the day with energy. I got out of bed when I was supposed to, and was on the road to work by 6:10 this morning! I had coffee. I felt great. As I was driving to work I made a great after work plan. Because I cut my run short yesterday, I…… Continue reading 2012 – Day Ten

Snack

Happy Monday everyone! I hope your Monday is flying by and that you have a short work week. I have a two day work week, and at the beginning of the morning I was wondering how I would ever make it through just two days. That probably sounds really weird. But here is the thing:…… Continue reading Snack

Breakfast and Articles

After having an amazing bagel, peanut butter and banana lunch yesterday, I went back to my low key breakfast today: One cup of Kashi Go Lean Crunch and one cup of skim milk. I really love this breakfast. Once it turns to winter I will go back to oats, but this week the temps have…… Continue reading Breakfast and Articles

Pain, pain, go away.

Seriously, WTF? Ugh. Ok, for the record – today was a pretty good day. Besides the fact that I was so exhausted when my alarm went off this morning I simply could NOT get up and get going to save my life. Nope, I just could not do it. Even though I went to bed…… Continue reading Pain, pain, go away.

A Change in Plan

Yesterday I left work early to go to see my surgeon and discuss my health issues. My GP thought they were directly related to my surgery, so when the problems got worse, I decided it was time to pay the doctor that saved my life a visit. I waited a long time. And then was…… Continue reading A Change in Plan

Home sick

Ugh. So, today I am home sick. On Tuesday I felt horrible from the moment I woke up through out most of the day. I went to bed early last night hoping that I would feel better when I woke up on Wednesday. No such luck. I don’t feel like I am full on sick -…… Continue reading Home sick

The Struggle with September

Let me be clear. September is one of my favorite months of the year. Second (maybe) only to October. I love autumn. I think it has some of the best weather of the year, and it is simply beautiful. Anyhow. I don’t know about where you live – but where I live, September is just…… Continue reading The Struggle with September
