Dill that ate the Basil: Tea/coffee Date January 2024

January 5, 2024 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 19 Comments

I'm joining  Coco and Deborah and grateful that my sister was on hand for the return of my mom's regular aide. I haven't actually spoken with my sister, but I assume things went okay. Although the aide needed to renew her certificate and that made her come later in the day -- just another reason I was … Continue reading Dill that ate the Basil: Tea/coffee Date January 2024

Where did THAT come from?: Runfessions December 2023

December 29, 2023December 28, 2023 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 16 Comments

In November if was wrist pain and a very stiff neck for a long time -- both of those pains resolved. But the niggles never seem to end, do they? Although some days this one is more than a niggle. I runfess . . .It seems I've finally fallen prey to Plantar Fasciitis. I think. … Continue reading Where did THAT come from?: Runfessions December 2023

Presenting Turducken: Tea/coffee Date December 2023

December 1, 2023November 30, 2023 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 27 Comments

I'm joining  Coco and Deborah and sharing our thoughts on the Turducken. If we were enjoying tea/coffee . . .I'd tell you that I was so glad I got to the store early the day before Thanksgiving; I had some groceries to pick up including the Turducken, which I'd signed up to pick up at 9 am … Continue reading Presenting Turducken: Tea/coffee Date December 2023

Where to Stretch: Runfessions November 2023

November 24, 2023November 24, 2023 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 16 Comments

I know it's been a minute, and I'm just maintaining a very small base, but we've always got something to runfess, #amiright? I runfess . . .I realized I'd been really slacking on my post run stretches, so I've gotten back after it. It really doesn't have to take long at all, but that little … Continue reading Where to Stretch: Runfessions November 2023

Falling Waters?: Tea/coffee Date October 2023

October 6, 2023October 6, 2023 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 26 Comments

I'm joining  Coco and Deborah and sharing some stories that have water involved. I had started to plan this waterfall trip in Winter, I think, but it got put aside when Bandit got so sick after our trip to Asheville. We only had two trips this year previously. One was a funeral, so doesn't really count, although … Continue reading Falling Waters?: Tea/coffee Date October 2023

They’re Baaack!: Runfessions September 2023

September 29, 2023September 28, 2023 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 11 Comments

The mosquitoes, that is. I'd stopped burning incense, kept filming videos, and everything seemed fine. Until I got nailed again. I suppose it's better than a couple of feet of snow! I runfess . . .I am so happy I'm not sporting mosquito bites every time I step outside anymore (obviously written right before I … Continue reading They’re Baaack!: Runfessions September 2023

Thoughts from a run: Tea/coffee Date September 2023

September 1, 2023August 31, 2023 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 25 Comments

I'm joining  Coco and Deborah and sharing thoughts from one August run, and a Bandit update. This was the photo from 2022. No mosquitoes lurking then. If we were enjoying tea/coffee . . .I'd tell I set out on a run on a beautiful day in August, stopping to take a photo before the run. Turns out … Continue reading Thoughts from a run: Tea/coffee Date September 2023

I’ve had my fill: Runfessions August 2023

August 25, 2023August 24, 2023 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 22 Comments

Of mosquitoes. So why am I so tasty to mosquitoes? This article here made for interesting reading. I'm a heavy sweater -- it seems to be almost the only criteria I really fit. Except that, like many runners, I do enjoy a banana sometimes. I wish there was a way to avoid being bitten without … Continue reading I’ve had my fill: Runfessions August 2023

A Biblical July: Tea/coffee Date August 2023

August 4, 2023August 3, 2023 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 23 Comments

I'm joining  Coco and Deborah and expecting Noah's Ark to go by any second! If we were enjoying tea/coffee . . .I'd tell you in June we were all, in this area, complaining about how dry it was. Remember to always be careful about what you ask for, because July turned into the wettest July ever since … Continue reading A Biblical July: Tea/coffee Date August 2023

Striding through Summer: Runfessions July 2023

July 28, 2023July 27, 2023 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 16 Comments

Whether you love or hate Summer running, it's no secret that this Summer has been tough on runners in my neck of the woods. What can make it easier? How do you know when you're really ready for a harder run? These are what I meant to grab -- they actually do look a lot … Continue reading Striding through Summer: Runfessions July 2023
