I’ll be honest…I used to have no patience with walking as exercise. Why would I walk if I could be running instead? Sullie was a great running partner until she was about 6-7 years old and decided that walking was more her speed. I started to appreciate walks with Sullie at the end of the [...]

This Week’s Workouts: Running Happy
July 27, 2014 { 9 comments }Hi and happy Sunday! I hope everyone has had a great weekend. I’m checking in to share this week’s workouts. It was a good mix that was light on the lifting, light on the yoga and a little heavier on the running. The road has just been calling my name lately so I’ve been going [...]

A Crazy V-Day
February 14, 2012 { 37 comments }I am a broken record on Tuesdays. I’m exhausted. That’s all going to change soon though as I get back on a more normal schedule. Although I love everything that I have done today, I’m definitely looking forward to being a bit more focused and not all over the place all day, every day. The [...]

A Pretty Worthless Day
December 21, 2011 { 10 comments }I have been relatively worthless today. I subbed out my classes so as not to spread my cold germs and proceeded to sleep until 9 a.m. Once I rolled out of bed, I immediately started on breakfast and coffee. I made a bowl of Silk Nog Holiday Oatmeal and topped it with TJs pumpkin butter [...]

All About Ambiance
December 18, 2011 { 12 comments }When we went to bed on Friday night the plan was to get up and drive to the mountains on Saturday morning to spend the day shopping and hanging out.

Instead of knowing that I’m going to be working between the hours of 8:30 and 5, I now find myself busy and free at random times and on random days. Thursdays are slow, Sundays are busy. I try to [...]

A Trader Joe’s Problem
June 2, 2011 { 41 comments }I have a problem. I can’t leave Trader Joe’s without spending $40. I walk in the door with intentions of only purchasing two or three things and end up filling up my whole basket. And I don’t know how this happens but a full basket magically translates to $40. Take tonight for example, my list [...]

Spring Break
April 22, 2011 { 13 comments }Happy Friday friends! My office is closed today for our Spring holiday so Brandon and I decided to head to Georgia to visit my grandmother. We haven’t seen my family since Christmas and four months is just far too long to go without a visit! We left after work yesterday. It’s a four-hour trip to [...]

Third Time's a Charm
September 30, 2010 { 19 comments }First, I really appreciate all of the comments/support about my decision to run the Marine Corps Marathon. Tomorrow is the first day of October so the countdown is officially on! Race day is October 31. Eek! :shock: After Tuesday’s 10-miler I forced myself to take Wednesday as a rest day. I was very tempted to [...]
