I'm joining Coco and Deborah with some of the things I meant to tell you in May, but then I veered course and shared my race photos. There's a few new things, too -- and an explanation for the stress I alluded to in last week's weekly run down. If we were enjoying tea/coffee . . .I'd … Continue reading Will this be “the one”: Tea/coffee Date June 2022

Make today your best day: Spilling over tea/coffee October 2019
September brought with it the start of a new (Jewish) year. I'd like to say it started off well, but that wouldn't be the truth, and I believe in sharing -- the good, the bad, the ugly. So no one ever thinks that someone else's life is all unicorns and rainbows. Write it on your … Continue reading Make today your best day: Spilling over tea/coffee October 2019
Rest needed, stat!: Spilling over tea/coffee September 2019
On Monday we spent the day with my parents. Despite the rain, the dogs were pretty good. Bandit (he appears here a couple of times) seems to particularly enjoy going to my parents -- until it's dinner time. We had a nice visit with my parents and some of their friends. The next day my … Continue reading Rest needed, stat!: Spilling over tea/coffee September 2019
Playing with those intervals: Spilling over tea/coffee August 2019
Ten years into running and I'm still experimenting with the best way to run for me. It's one of the things I like about running -- there's always more to learn, and different things work for different bodies (the same could be said about yoga). Pull up a chair and mug with Coco and Deborah and me for the … Continue reading Playing with those intervals: Spilling over tea/coffee August 2019
Another one bites the dust: Spilling over tea/coffee November 2017
You'll have to keep reading to see what I killed this time. No, it wasn't a furkid or Mr. Judy, although there have definitely been a few times when all of them have tempted me . . . Pull up chair and mug with Coco and Deborah and me for the ultimate coffee tea date. If we were enjoying … Continue reading Another one bites the dust: Spilling over tea/coffee November 2017
Potty talk: 8/7-13 Weekly Wrap
Apparently skipping a run last week did me a world of good -- my first instinct was to make it up later that week, but I decided not to, and it was definitely the right decision. This week I was able to get in all my runs, add strength training back in, and so far, … Continue reading Potty talk: 8/7-13 Weekly Wrap
I love a conversion!: 7/31-8/6 Weekly Wrap
I was still feeling run down this week. In fact, more so than last week. Not actively sick, mind you, but like I could go over my tipping point if I don't take it easy. So I did. I even skipped a run. And missed some speed work. And abandoned Pahla B for the week. … Continue reading I love a conversion!: 7/31-8/6 Weekly Wrap
Loving Lately (1): TOLT
Today for Thinking Out Loud I'm simply going to share with you some of the things I'm loving lately. While this may come off as a sales pitch, it's not meant to be. I love reading about stuff other people love -- and as was the case with Wendy's recommendation below a few paragraphs, sometimes it's something … Continue reading Loving Lately (1): TOLT
Putting on your oxygen mask: TOLT
I sit down here at my computer, with no freakin' clue what I'm going to be Thinking Out Loud about today. A smart blogger would probably just move on to polishing her Friday post, which is about 75% written. I never claimed to be a smart blogger. My blog is stuck I would love to grow the … Continue reading Putting on your oxygen mask: TOLT
Just call me bologna: Spilling over high tea March 2017
Just call me bologna. As in, the sandwich generation. Well, I don't have kids, but I do have the furkids and I seem to attract the needy ones. And of course I also have one big kid. Yes, still feeling a bit squeezed over here. According to my research, the average American will have consumed 1,500 PB&Js by … Continue reading Just call me bologna: Spilling over high tea March 2017
