Well I’m a little sad the weekend is almost over already, but really hoping for a better week next week. Last week was tough with hubby traveling for work, both of us catching a variety of the flu which hit poor hubby hard, work stress, etc. I’m thankful the week is over and we survived, […]
Birthday Fun for the Weekend List
It’s official, I’m 40. And not bothered by it. I am a little about going back to the grind tomorrow after 4 fabulously fun days of celebrating. I took Thursday and Friday off just to have a long weekend to play. It started Wednesday night with hubby making this great green curry veggie dish for […]
Silent Scenes from the California State Fair
Birthday Week Fun
I’m not 40 yet, but having a little fun starting the celebration this week. Miko, as always, has been the sweetest lap buddy. He and Leela got new padded Kong collars because his old one was getting a little ratty and I noticed it seemed to irritate his neck last week. So they’re both styling […]
Vegan Festival & Women’s Fitness Festival 10k
It has been a busy weekend, in a good way. Maybe not for Leela, she has been a couch potato most of the weekend enjoying her blanket. Even dragging it into the kitchen when she jumped out of bed for dinnertime. I had a simple, post gym dinner Thursday of veggies and tofu sauteed in […]
2017 SacTown 10-Mile Race
I am still dealing with this cold thing and frustrated about that! Head pressure, sore throats, run off, runny nose, and other unpleasant symptoms for the last week or so. It’ll pass, I know, and it’s not the end of the world. But it sure makes trying to function at work crappy. And made for […]
Finished the California International Marathon
I am sore, but still alive after completing my first marathon and what a crazy weekend adventure it’s been! Lots of ups and downs in this race story that starts early Saturday morning at the CIM Expo at the Sacramento Convention Center. I figured I should get there when it opened at 9 am to pick […]
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 […]
2016 SacTown VegFest
Whew, it’s been a busy week and it’s only Tuesday. I’m on call for work this week and got three calls at the gym tonight while trying to complete a run. Ugh! I got through it and it’s been quiet since. Saturday we had SacTown VegFest which was exciting because it’s the first vegfest organized by the Sacramento Vegetarian […]
Beating the Blerch for the Weekend List
Happy Sunday morning, I’m enjoying a quiet morning listening to the rain outside while the sun is just starting to come up – so pretty. It also rained last Sunday here and we got caught in pretty heavy downpours on our long runs. It was fine, running in the rain was actually kind of refreshing […]
