How is it 8 o’clock already??? I just finished dinner and I still have so much to do before I go to bed and I really want to get some reading in. There are not enough hours in the day. Today is the second day in a row that I’ve made a serious effort to…… Continue reading Quick Wrap Up
Congratulations on surviving Monday! Personally, I stayed up way too late last night watching the Patriots beat the Jets – I am pretty sure it was worth it. But it made for a long day on not too much sleep last night. Thankfully I had some fairly healthy food to have even though there was…… Continue reading Monday night
Hi All: Sorry I have been away for a couple of days. Not too much to report, but I have survived the last couple of days since the half marathon. I took Monday off from work to recover. My knees were sore, and my quads were not exactly thrilled with me on Monday. But all…… Continue reading Post Race Recovery
I have been a bit MIA lately, and now I can tell you why. The past week I have been preparing for my first half marathon, and I was not in the best of moods, I must admit. I did not want to write anything about the half marathon before it happened because I was…… Continue reading My First Half Marathon
Happy Tuesday morning everyone. I hope that your week got off to a great start with a productive Monday. My Monday was pretty great, as far as Mondays go. (Not my favorite day of the week.)

Anyhow. I don’t know about where you live – but where I live, September is just…… Continue reading The Struggle with September
So, in case you were wondering I got my run done yesterday. I did 5 1/3 miles and it was pretty hard. I really need to learn that getting a longish run over with first thing in the morning is really the best thing to do. By the time I left the house at 12:30…… Continue reading I got it done…
I woke up this morning very sad. Today was my last day of vacation, and it was mostly spent packing up the car and traveling. AFM and I did have a good morning together though. I tried not to let my sadness about leaving get in the way of our last couple of hours together.AFM…… Continue reading Back from vacation
…was better than the beginning of my day. I worked a little later than normal today, but still had enough time to get a five mile run in after work. I definitely think that the jelly beans helped me get through my post-work run. 🙂 Thank you, NR! As I was driving to the gym,…… Continue reading The rest of the day…
