Mondays can be tough around here and yesterday morning was very tough for Leela, she did not want to leave her cozy office bed for a walk. I don’t blame her, I wasn’t feeling heading into work either! But I packed a smoothie and motivated myself into the office. And have been trying to eat […]
Running Through the Week
Things are still crazy this week at work, so crazy that I have not been too inspired to be creative in the kitchen. They are settling down finally and tomorrow is Friday! So, yeah, it’s a random post. When hubby and I walked by Rogue Sriracha Hot Stout Beer shopping last weekend, I had to grab it! […]
Earth Day Festival
Sunday morning I got up early, went for a run, then headed out to the Sacramento Earth Day festival to do a volunteer shift displaying my electric car and answering many questions on owning and driving EVs. Miko was perfectly happy to sleep in. I invited another EV driving friend from the local vegan groups to […]
Chilling for the Weekend List
Happy Sunday! Hope everyone is having a great weekend. I have a busy day planned with a long run then a volunteer shift at an Earth Day event which should be fun! I am looking forward to fun social time with friends in the local vegan and vegetarian societies because I’ve been in a bit […]
Easy Shopping and Eating
We had some chihuahua drama last night when Miko left is teddy bear on Leela’s favorite bed. Leela does not like anyone disturbing her nap time, especially bouncy, playful Miko. He wanted his teddy bear, but did not want to suffer the Leela wrath and pouted at me until I caved and grabbed his toy for him. […]
2016 Run Rocklin Half Marathon
Sunday morning I got up early for my third half marathon in a month. Spring is a great time of year for local races in the Sacramento area making it easy to train for one and keep the the momentum going with races just about every weekend. I saw a lot of the same runners at all three […]
Running and Celebrating
Friday is almost here, woohoo! It’s been a wacky week month two months. Sunday I drove to a nearby hilly trail for a change of scenery for a long run and the weather was perfect. I only saw one snake and it wasn’t a rattlesnake. And the rest of the scenery was gorgeous with blue skies […]
Colorful Weekend List
This weekend has been so great that I’m not ready to go back to work tomorrow. It’s been relaxing and productive. After a week of solid rain, the weed and grass growth in the yard has been insane. Literally one day, nothing, next day 3-foot-tall spiky weed is there! It was nice getting the front […]
2016 Shamrock’n Half Marathon
It’s nice, sunny, dry, and in the 70s here today. But it wasn’t Sunday for the 2016 Shamrock’n Half Marathon! My sister and I drove to Raley Field together very early in the dark, cold, wind, and rain to meet friends and our shoes got drenched just dashing through the flooded parking lot. Somehow, even with the […]
Race Stressing for the Weekend List
Happy Saturday! Hope everyone is having a great weekend. Me, well, not so much. I am really stressing about a half marathon I’m running tomorrow morning from a combination of issues. The weather is a huge factor, it has been raining, very windy, and stormy here most of this week with flooded areas. Again, great for […]
