What Would You Do With…..

ShareYesterday: 8 miles- 84 minutes. 475 million dollars- I’m watching the news right now. I don’t usually pay too much attention to the lottery, I mean, I’m not gonna win so why throw money away? But when I hear a number like 475 million, I can’t help but let my mind wander to everything I [...]

Feeling a Little Crazy

ShareI’ve been feeling a little, uh, crazy lately. I can say crazy, you can’t. T o you;  I may have been acting a little off, been  a little emotional, or behind my back you may have called me a raging bitch. But crazy is a term that only I can say. It’s most likely a combination [...]

What’s Beautiful?

ShareWhat’s beautiful? I’m currently participating in the Under Armour:What’s Beautiful? campaign. I have a video posted on my profile, but this is the kind of thing that I’m better at expressing in writing. Sometimes words just don’t come out of my mouth the way they are supposed to. When I started loosing weight, it was [...]

Grandma Turns 95

ShareWhat a beautiful Tuesday! I just got back from a 10 mile run. I ran it in 1:46:30; so I’m pretty proud. I desperately needed some me time today. Well, maybe I shouldn’t call it me time, because I will be alone all day, but I needed time to think without feeling pressured to get [...]

Welcome to May!

ShareWelp, we made it. We are all moved out, all moved in, and living out of boxes and laundry baskets. But at least the hard part is over. You will all be proud when I tell you that I made it through yesterday with only one emotional breakdown; it was at 6am and then it [...]

Running, Endorphines and Reality

ShareLot’s to do today! Cleaning, packing, laundry, cleaning and some more packing. It’s my last day off before we move, so the goal is to get pretty much every thing done.

Saturday’s Long Run

ShareOn Saturday I ran 9 miles. I woke up optimistic about this run. Sure, I could hear the wind howling, but the sun was peaking through the curtains and some birds were happily chirping. My smarty pants phone said it was 38 degrees with 0% chance of rain. You lying son of a bitch. Within [...]

Naps and Rearranging Things

ShareI took a long nap after my run this morning. It was mostly because I was exhausted, but also because I knew that if I didn’t I was going to watch the news, and the news is just full of too much sadness for my liking. So I took a nap. For way longer than [...]

Packing= Stress= Eating

ShareStress is running pretty high around here. Packing is not enjoyable. Packing when you’re only going somewhere temporary is even less enjoyable. We’ve been trying to figure out what we’re storing where. What we should just get rid of and what we absolutely need to come with us. I’m tempted to just post an ad [...]
