It's okay, I don't know what I'm doing either.
Its after midnight and I should be sleeping. But its a full blue moon and my brain is whirling. Today was busy and somewhat annoying but it ended better than it began I guess. I started off weepy and weird and missing a friend and worrying about some very serious family health issues. I'm still... Continue Reading →
Because you care. I decided to give the foot another day off. Plus, I'm scared I will go crazy if I run on it and it acts ugly so I'm delaying expected disappointment. Such a great attitude I have, I know. Anyway, the gym was good for me as it always is. Mind clearing and... Continue Reading →
I managed a decent cross training workout at the gym last night. See? Yeah, I know. Arm strength is pretty sad. Tonight, we run.
A friend took this picture of me and told me to post it on my blog. So here you go Liam, you weirdo. You owe me a latte. Heh. Today has been ultra long for some reason. I did get to meet my college roommate from back in the day for lunch. She is uber... Continue Reading →
I've rested my foot for the past three days. Two of those days I rested completely and cross-trained on the other one. Today it was time to get back out there. I walked the dog first and got in a 1.4 mile warm up. Then ran/walked 3.4 more miles. It wasn't pretty. I got through... Continue Reading →
Because I win at life lately, I just spilled a bunch of tea inside the refrigerator and on the floor. Even better, I dropped a glass and it shattered into a million shards of feet shredding danger bits all over the tile floor. I vacuumed but shoes would be a good idea in the kitchen...

Not feeling quite so lame for hitting the snooze button and missing my run this morning because I just did it. Day 1 complete. I'm a hot sweating stinky mess of a girl right now. My training program called for 4 min running/1 min walking for a total of 45 min, plus warm up and... Continue Reading →
In a few months I'll be "running" in my second half marathon. I use the word running loosely because I walked the majority of the one last year and while I plan to run most of this second one, I am not above walking parts of it as well. Ain't no shame in walking my... Continue Reading →
It rained today. I don't mean it rained for an hour or two, it rained ALL dang day. We didn't really have solid plans for the 4th anyway but if we had planned on outdoor activities, they weren't happening. So we ventured to a lazy late breakfast at one of my favorite places that tries... Continue Reading →
Today was pretty great. Hubs was off work too so we took the kiddo to school and spent the day together. We went to the gym and got our sweat on, then rode the motorcycle to a monstrously large parking lot so he could give me riding lessons without endangering others, next was vegetarian sushi...

I'm more like Melancholy Melanie today rather than Crankypants McGhee. Progress people, it's a slow thing sometimes. Memorial Day weekend turned out nice. I won't recap the details but here's a list of sorts...family walk on greenway, family cookout and subsequent soccer playing, trip to the zoo, puppet making and puppet show, gym, toy mini...

So now I have food poisoning or some sort of bacteria infection according to the doctor's best guess. The night of The Stress Fracture Debacle I did the head in the toilet thing for a bit. I thought I had just stressed myself to the point of illness but then other things began to occur... Continue Reading →
So, I've been doing this running thing since about mid-May of this year. I've done this before, starting running (well, walking first until I could jog without dying) and kept at it for a bit and then something or other distracted me or I got discouraged and gave up. But here I am three and... Continue Reading →
It occurred to me that I need to update my blogroll as some of the ones on the list are defunct, moved, or just plain out of date. That will go on my to-do list. Right after "give the cat a bath". Meaning, don't hold your breath, I really should do it but am feeling lazy.... Continue Reading →
i'm contemplating lunch. what to have, what can i get for $6? do i go out, sit in my air conditioned car in the park, bring something back? if i get a happy meal do i get the boy or the girl version? it makes all the difference in the toy you get. should i go get... Continue Reading →
My butt hurts. And my legs. And my arms some too. Chick in the Green Shirt (she needs a shorter nickname I think) and I worked out together yesterday. This was the first time I've officially worked out, as in cardio and weights, in a very LONG time. We did 30 minutes on the treadmill, a round... Continue Reading →
I dunno what it means but here are some ramblings from my brain.... Sometimes I have trouble keeping my snarky, sarcastic and/or snide comments to myself. Today was one of those days. But I managed to keep my mouth shut and not get in trouble. Sometimes that is just so hard to do. I think some people... Continue Reading →
I've gone and done it again. I've joined the YMCA. So you know what that means right? Yep, it's yoga time once again folks. After what I felt was a pretty hard class last week I left feeling fairly pleased with myself and thinking "oh yeah, I got this". And then, the soreness hit me. Like... Continue Reading →
