Mr. Judy was slated for a short business trip the latter end of the week. The snow/ice had different plans for him, though, and he ended up having to reschedule. I have to admit I was looking forward to just cooking for myself and getting at some projects I wanted to tackle. On the other … Continue reading My Good Samaritan Moment: 2/3-9 WRD
Weekly Run Down
Searching for Vitamin D: 1/27-2/2 WRD
No big shock, I was very tired the beginning of the week. Last week was intense. Heck, the last half year (and more) was intense. I just wanted to come home & sleep for a million years. Of course life goes on, and even though I have to admit I wasn't super motivated this week, … Continue reading Searching for Vitamin D: 1/27-2/2 WRD
RIP, Dad: 1/20-26 WRD
When last we talked, I had just come home from visiting my Dad. As it turned out he passed away just a few hours later, and regular readers of this blog know that it was indeed a blessing. I went back the next day and have stayed with my Mom until today, helping with all … Continue reading RIP, Dad: 1/20-26 WRD
Treading water: 1/13-19 WRD
I felt back to normal this week (until today, poor sleep last night, ended up on the couch with Bandit due to Lola making noises), and good thing, too, as we got a call from Hospice that my Dad was worsening and they didn't think he has a lot of time left. Which could mean … Continue reading Treading water: 1/13-19 WRD
Running in skirt: 1/6-12 WRD
I was home all week, which helped, but I've also been quite busy between appointments and prepping to teach and teaching yoga. I felt pretty run down by the end of the week -- mostly due to a week or so of poor sleep -- so I took a lot more rest than usual. Joining … Continue reading Running in skirt: 1/6-12 WRD
Moving through dark times: 12/30-1/5 WRD
Another super challenging week. I actually have hopes that life will get just a little bit better, the reason may seem odd: my Dad is now on Hospice. No, nothing changed, although everything changed. I plan to write more about that next Friday. Joining Kim @ Kimrunsonthefly and Deborah @ Confessionsofamotherrunner and share how I … Continue reading Moving through dark times: 12/30-1/5 WRD
Moving into 2020: 12/23-29 WRD
It was a somewhat challenging week to get in movement, due to travel and weather, but I managed pretty well. Got together with friends, briefly, attended a party, was there for my family. Joining Kim @ Kimrunsonthefly and Deborah @ Confessionsofamotherrunner and continuing my run when I can theme -- and often walk when I … Continue reading Moving into 2020: 12/23-29 WRD
Still We Run: 12/16-22 WRD
Running went quite well this week. Paces are dropping a tad while HR is steady, all while pretty much running by feel. I got in a little more strength training, too. Snow flew, frigidly cold air moved in. Life, however, well, not so great. We have been pushing through getting my Dad into a nursing … Continue reading Still We Run: 12/16-22 WRD
Thawing out: 12/9-15 WRD
I thought we'd be going to my parents today, but we're going to try for tomorrow since my nephew (who lives in India -- yes, the country) will be visiting. So I didn't need to get that long run in on Friday, but then I didn't have to deal with the crazy wind today. I … Continue reading Thawing out: 12/9-15 WRD
Wrapping up Racing: 12/2-8 WRD
Last night (yup, night) was probably my last race for 2019. There was a 5k I considered for next weekend, but the weather right now doesn't look great -- of course that can always change. This week was still a bit light in strength training, but I suppose I made up for that with all … Continue reading Wrapping up Racing: 12/2-8 WRD
