What am I thinking? Half marathon or marathon? What am I capable of? Why am I even trying this? Have a lost my mind? Well…maybe! Week 2 & 3 are complete and the dreaded Saturday 7 mile run went better than expected. I managed to continue with 4-5 days of Burn Bootcamp Five Forks and…

What am I thinking? Half marathon or marathon? What am I capable of? Why am I even trying this? Have a lost my mind? Well…maybe! I just completed Week 1 of a 16 week marathon training. To be perfectly honestly with you all, I have never ran more than 8.5 miles in my life. NEVER!…

? I was going through my photos early Monday morning and found this one (featured photo). I stopped to take the time to reflect on the moment I took it. I remember how I felt standing in the gardens of the Palace of Versailles. I remember stopping, watching my #LittleLove…

On a recent rainy day, I found the perfect little place with the best pour over coffee to sit and let the words flow. My goodness it feels good to write again. Work has consumed me for so many months, that I have not had the extra time.  As you all know, I tend to…

It’s been awhile and it feels good to have some time to write again. So here I am, on a quiet Sunday morning, with my black coffee, my dog, and a little music. Ah…Yes…MUSIC, the reason I am writing this Sunday morning (again). Three people in my life sent me music comments or links this…

After a commitment yesterday morning, I was determined to spend the rest of the day taking it easy.  I went downtown with a tribe member to simply enjoy the open air Saturday Morning Market. There was a suggestion to bring running clothes, hit the trails, and so on. I shot that down quickly! I suggested…

I have written and tried to publish this on several occassions. There were times I wrote out of anger. There were times I wrote due to the pain I experienced. But every time, I walked away from writing. Each time, hoping to find the joy I once had in blogging. Not out of anger, pain,…

My sweet #LittleLove has the flu. Yup, for the second year in a row, she has been hit with this nasty, unwelcome virus. I spent another morning checking temperatures, giving medicines, and disinfecting light switches, door knobs, the couch, her pencils, rulers…if I think she touched it, I tried to disinfect it! This mommy has never…

Late post, written on the morning of 01/06/2019 Hello everyone! I have been a bit behind with my blog. The holidays were incredibly busy with family and friends, which was fantastic! My #LittleLove was on holiday break from school and my Christmas surprise gift for her took me some time to complete. I spent the…

“There she goes There she goes again Racing through’ my brain And I just can’t contain This feelin’ that remains” It has been a busy few weeks. Thanksgiving with friends and family, our Annual Ugly Christmas Sweater Party, sports commitments, getting ready for Christmas… you know the drill. Last Friday, I picked up my #LittleLove…

It’s been awhile since I have posted one of these. It’s another rainy morning. I came down to be greeted by  handsome hungry pup. After making a pot of coffee, I  turned on all of the Christmas lights and sat here in silence and to enjoy the smell of our beautiful tree. Yesterday was not…

These two silly gals are kind of my everything! Short and sweet… TRUE friends make us happy. They allow us to be silly, they laugh with us, cry with us on bad days, and stand by us on the truly tough days. They accept us despite the faults we possess. They are invaluable. I have been so…
