I didn't realize I'd have to implement my new plan to (maybe) run twice a week and do a cycling workout twice a week so soon -- but this week went sideways quickly. Bandit's cough has been becoming more frequent, but the day after Memorial Day he became a honking goose. Sigh. Like Chester & … Continue reading Mini heat wave: 5/29 – 6/4 WRD

Thanksgiving was spent with my parents, my sister and her kids, plus one of the couples my parents eat with on a regular basis. It wasn't horrible and it wasn't great, and I have a strong feeling it might be my Dad's last Thanksgiving, but only time will tell.
