So Long to Summer
Last night at 1am, Meeker and I decided to run a race this morning. A few of his co-workers were already signed up, so we though what the heck. 5 hours later, we popped out of bed and headed to register for our town’s So Long to Summer race. I had this banana, peanut butter … Continue reading »

Not only does he PUSH the class to its limits every time, but the music is rockin’ – usually a mix of ’90s techno, Latin, and Jock Jams. Remember Jock Jams?! After class, … Continue reading »

I woke up before 7, ran 6 miles, went to Bible study, had lunch with the husband/in-laws…then when I got home – NOTHING. I fell asleep while reading. Then woke up and … Continue reading »
Smoothies, Exercise, Friends and Hail
Yesssssss for Thursday. It started out with an insanely good smoothie. Closer… I used Janetha’s favorite recipe – and it is worthy of the “favorite status” – It was so good that I will have the same thing again tomorrow for breakfast. No question. After breakfast I walked Punky, then I walked to a Bible … Continue reading »
