Let me start off by saying that Meeker and I have our own, stupid language. It is mostly abbreviations and short words, sometimes we add suffixes. However, one of our favorite phrases is: So dang. It is a short way of saying: This/that is so DANG good! That is how my afternoon was: So dang. … Continue reading »

Miercoles en la Manana
I started today off with a walk in the park! Then came home and had some good eats: First: Then combined the two: Then I added some toast and coffee out of another favorite mug. Look at those seeds buried in the crust. Yummm. I had butter and cinnamon on top of these two slices. … Continue reading »
Cloudy with a chance of broccoli
The intervals were not even a fraction of the pain and agony that I expected them to be. In fact – I enjoyed them immensely. Surprise, surprise. Also, it started raining on the last lap of my last 1600. How perfect. So my last kick on the track + my jog home were enjoyed in … Continue reading »
Picture day, continued
Success! Okay, so it’s a little awkward. But those pictures are always awkward. They tell you to turn your head at an odd angle and look “right here” – it’s just not natural. Plus it was at 7:30am. All things considered, I am pleased. I had 3 minutes to eat lunch. Literally 3 minutes. 12: … Continue reading »

Clouds and eggs
I woke up to a cloudy morning, which made for a beautiful sunrise that I watched while walking with Punky. When I got home, I was hungry, hungry, so I had the heel of the bread with some good ole peanut butter on it. Then I headed upstairs to get ready for the day. Clouds … Continue reading »

Grits, cleaning, AC, and of course…salad
We were lazy this morning, and didn’t get out of bed until a little after 9:00. I then went on a cleaning rampage, and started scrubbing floors, counter tops and bathroom sinks. By 10:00, I realized I needed to give up my frantic cleaning and hop in the shower if we were going to make … Continue reading »
Push it
When I was a freshman in high school, trying out for the soccer team, I remember hearing a rumor about the head coach and how he liked to put a trash can at one end of the field and tell the players to “run until they threw up” – While I made the soccer team, … Continue reading »
