I'm Thinking Out Loud about spooky stuff, bad furkids, and running and walking with dogs today. The vorteces When I was in Sedona, Wendy @ Takingthelongwayhome asked me if we felt the vorteces. Not really. But . . . . . . my IT was just every so slightly irritated when I arrived, and when I left? Completely … Continue reading Galloway works for dogs: TOLT
Furkids
Bandit/Houdini: TOLT
I'm Thinking Out Loud about the shorter days, the benefits of someone cooking for me and the furkids -- of course. Did you catch what I did? With my subject for the Weekly Wrap? There's no place like home. It made sense -- it was nice to finally get home and stay home after just about two weeks … Continue reading Bandit/Houdini: TOLT
Epic trip, epic fails: TOLT
I'm Thinking Out Loud about all the shenanigans on our most recent epic trip. And there definitely were some! Missing all the bloggers When it came to blogger meetup, my recent trip was an epic failure. Patty @ Mynoguiltlife lives in Phoenix -- but guess was she there when I was? Of course not. Then I saw that … Continue reading Epic trip, epic fails: TOLT
Weight loss should make you happy: TOLT
I'm Thinking Out Loud about the dangers of lawn services, how weight loss should make you happy (but so often doesn't), and of course the furkids. There's always the furkids! Swimming Shenanigans Last week when I went swimming there seemed to be all sorts of shenanigans going on. First there was dark cloud woman. You know the people … Continue reading Weight loss should make you happy: TOLT
Animals vs. Humans: TOLT
I'm Thinking Out Loud about when does an animal actually look old this week. If you've ever had a geriatric cat, you know how they get kind of football shaped -- narrow at the shoulders and hips, and wider at the sides. Yes, Gizmo does have that going on. Chester never got to be old enough to … Continue reading Animals vs. Humans: TOLT
It’s weather stalking time: TOLT
My thoughts are all over the place, but that's what Thinking Out Loud is all about anyway: weather stalking, swimming ballet buns, tough bodyweight exercises. Don't know what I'm talking about? Read on! It's that time again Let the weather stalking commence. Doesn't matter that my half is more than two weeks away; I have to start thinking … Continue reading It’s weather stalking time: TOLT
Sneaky races: TOLT
Today I'm Thinking Out Loud about the need to talk early and often with your parents about what they want as they age. To think about what you want as you age. It's probably time to start that conversation If your parents are in their 70s, that is. Don't be like us, don't wait until they're 90 and … Continue reading Sneaky races: TOLT
Working on living better: TOLT
Hey there! I'm actually back home -- did you miss me? You can catch up a bit with what's been going on in my life with my Weekly Wrap. But today I'm Thinking Out Loud, assuming I can actually gather my scattered thoughts. Living better, not longer (although longer is nice, too) This month has been hard, … Continue reading Working on living better: TOLT
Life after the Olympics: TOLT
This week I'm Thinking Out Loud about the Olympics -- still! -- the weather (always), running (pretty much always), and of course Bandit. Because it wouldn't be a TOLT without an animal update. I'm digging this weather I'm not so sorry that I missed that week of running -- the weather was hot and humid and miserable that … Continue reading Life after the Olympics: TOLT
Live to run another day: TOLT
I'm Thinking Out Loud about how sometimes skipping runs is absolutely, positively the right thing to do. My two little runs this week have gone well -- both negative splits. I'm sure the shorter days are actually helping me out, because it's shadier longer in the mornings now. My BRF (Basal Resting Fitness) Have you heard of BMR … Continue reading Live to run another day: TOLT
