Yes on this week almost being over. It seems strange to me that I feel frazzled at times when we don’t have kids. But sometimes just working full time, running a house, taking care of fur kids, and maintaining fitness is a lot too. How sad is that? Work has been very consuming lately without […]
Life & Simple Meals
I am pretty happy this week is almost over and I didn’t get called in for jury duty, woohoo! I was on call having to check each night to see if needed the next day this week, so that was a relief. And it actually got chilly here again this week – lows in the […]
Running with Chickens for the List
Leela is finally getting the hang of her cuddle bed! Well, most of the time. But that’s progress! And I am feeling sleepy looking at that pic after a long day, but need to finish catching up on laundry for the week first. Allergies are better after I broke down and started using Flonase. I […]
The Parkway Half & Weekend List
Happy Sunday, hope everyone is having a great weekend. We needed to play a little catch up today with chores and yard work and I’m feeling a little wiped and sore after a challenging half marathon yesterday. Miko has just been a cute and cuddly sweetheart all week to remind us we should never go out of […]
Simple Week Meals
While driving to work yesterday, I caught a story on NPR about climate change and the drastic changes we need to make now so the next generation has a chance to be happy. Nothing really new, but I found myself feeling the same way I have been on long runs lately – feeling like I’m gasping […]
Getting Better for the Weekend List
I am feeling much better and even had two decent training runs at the gym and a just okay long run outside today. The weather has not been very spring-like the last few days with chilly rain and storms. Since we’re getting sunshine today, we had to take advantage of that for yard work and long […]
Great Eats and Tough Week for the List
Whew, the pups have the right idea this week. They’ve been extra cuddly and sweet. And I am gonna get in some more couch time myself shortly! I did the SacTown 10-mile race this morning as part of our 100-miles of races challenge this year and I am wiped! That race story will be coming […]
Marching On for the List
After preparing and rushing for a half marathon and losing an hour last weekend, it’s been nice to chill a bit this weekend and Miko is always ready to chill on his favorite soft couch blanket with me while binge watching X-Files. Leela made herself a cozy bed in the pile of warm blankets that […]
Pre-Race Week for the List
Hello and happy Sunday! I am feeling wiped after the Shamrock’n half marathon and enjoying sitting a bit before finding energy to walk dogs. The race recap is coming soon after I finish sorting pictures and resting. The week leading up to the half was jam-packed with work stress, but also great eats. Sweet hubby […]
Over this Week
This week is almost over, woohoo! It has been an off and strange week for me and I am ready to end it. The 4-mile Valentine Run I did on Saturday with my sister did something awesome – they let us download the race photos for free! Normally I don’t care about them, especially for shorter […]
