This will have to count for a Race Day post. Our team is #22 and the wave starts at 7:02am. Yeah, what's with the 2 min wave increments? Weather? The good news: no 30mph wind gusts like the last time I ran this course. The bad: rain. Remember when I said I knew I would... Continue Reading →
Oct 20 – The Roller Coaster Ride of Life Continues
Following up on the stolen car from the Oct 13th post - they found it!! My parent's got the call from the police in the wee hours of the morning Friday am and were able to go pick it up from where it had been abandoned. Which was just one exit up the road from... Continue Reading →
Oct 19th – Age is in the eye of the beholder
Back to a Writing Prompt From NaBloPoMo: At what point in life did you stop trying to look older? Quite young actually and I only ever did for a very short period of time in order to appease 27's dad back when I was with him. I was getting my Bachelor's in Real Estate with... Continue Reading →
Oct 18 – Meatball Tortellini Soup
Another recurring theme when I commit to daily posts - recipes! I've done something like this before, but could not find it readily when I was making a grocery list the other day so this time I am documenting it here so I can find it wherever I am 🙂 I found this on All... Continue Reading →
Oct 17 – Improvement!
Much better, yes? 16's concussion symptom scores were still in the low 20's a week ago, but they finally started dropping down into the teens around the 10th and then Monday saw a larger drop. We had another checkup with the doctor in the afternoon - these will occur weekly until the doctor can sign... Continue Reading →
Oct 16 – Sights and sounds of the basement
Not much going on. One more week of work and then I will take some time off since I didn't get to go on the August mom's trip and I need to turn in some vacation time before the holidays. You know it will be New Year's tomorrow, right? Anyhow, I am sure this will... Continue Reading →
Oct 15 – 8 mile trail run
It's been a long time since I got to start my Sunday like this: Next weekend, in my final race for the season, I will be anchoring a relay team at the She Rox triathlon. Eve is swimming, Renee will bike and I will run. It's on the same course that I've run twice now... Continue Reading →
Oct 14 – Mama said there’d be days like this
Now, you can take that line from the classic song and interpret it many ways. Most people take it to refer to the less than perfect days. Sorta like Friday. Which started out so so. I was bored out of my mind because the one thing I really needed to get done at work was... Continue Reading →
Oct 13 – Election nonsense
Never fear, this is not a post on a particular political position - at least not intentionally!! First of all - can anyone see what I found particularly amusing about this portion of my ballot (no, not who got my vote - you all knew who that would be anyway!) Roseanne Barr???!!! You mean, they... Continue Reading →
Oct 12 – Pardon my French, but I need this book
This went flying around on Facebook and what I want to know is - how do these things pop up JUST when I need them? Because what had just happened when I logged in and saw this? I had just realized that I didn't pack a lunch and would have to spend unnecessary money... Continue Reading →
