I am determined to respect my body and give it the rest it wants -- while trying to move gently, too. I seemed to find a good balance this week. What I didn't find? Myself, outside, as much as usual. The ice stuck around for days because of the the mostly cold temps -- I … Continue reading Slowing Expanding: 1/10 – 16 WRD
Weekly Run Down
Decluttering & Organizing: 1/3 – 9 WRD
I didn't feel great in the beginning of the week (left over from last week), rested but did stuff (more on that in the Favorites of the Week), felt better, got more active -- and then had to rest some more. I still learned a lot this week and accomplished a lot while moving (some) … Continue reading Decluttering & Organizing: 1/3 – 9 WRD
Getting What I Need: 12/27 – 1/2 WRD
Pretty sure I've used that title before! I was supposed to be at my moms for New Years. Then a couple of days before there were several cases of COVID in the workers, the day before more and cases in the residents as well. It was a difficult decision, but I decided to stay home. … Continue reading Getting What I Need: 12/27 – 1/2 WRD
A Plan B Kind of Week: 12/20 – 26 WRD
I did have a reaction to the booster, but it wasn't as bad as with the second shot, thankfully. Still ran a fever for roughly 24 hours which kept me on the couch all last Sunday. Couldn't even walk Bandit -- and therefore Bandit refused to walk with Mr. Judy. He often refuses to walk … Continue reading A Plan B Kind of Week: 12/20 – 26 WRD
Got Boosted: 12/13 – 19 WRD
Warmer temps earlier in the week degrading into a day of Wintry mix (the worst!) yesterday. Not a running day for me, but I did have to go out to get my booster. Thankfully it was warm enough so that the roads were fine, although that Wintry mix continued to fall as the sun and … Continue reading Got Boosted: 12/13 – 19 WRD
The Rain Washed it All Away: 12/6 – 12 WRD
There were a couple of snowy runs this week, but yesterday it rained, and the snow is all gone for now. I am much happier without snow! I'm joining Kim @ Kimrunsonthefly and Deborah @ Confessionsofamotherrunner, and just moving through the stress. Workouts update Monday: Yoga (45 min), Dogwalk, PB Walking with Weights (20 min)Tuesday: Yoga … Continue reading The Rain Washed it All Away: 12/6 – 12 WRD
Hanging On By a Thread: 11/29 – 12/5 WRD

Free at last!: 11/22 – 28 WRD
I managed to escape completely unscathed from jury duty! For the last 30 years, I've been called regularly and usually picked. Very grateful to break that cycle. No Turkey Trot for me since we were on the road by the time any race would have started. I'm joining Kim @ Kimrunsonthefly and Deborah @ Confessionsofamotherrunner, … Continue reading Free at last!: 11/22 – 28 WRD
If it makes you happy. . .: 11/15 – 21 WRD
You may notice there was a lot of Yoga video filming going on this week. Even very early in the morning. That's because for the first time in almost 2 years, Mr. Judy went to see his mom and sister (who live outside of Seattle). We'll get to the stuff that made me happy this … Continue reading If it makes you happy. . .: 11/15 – 21 WRD
Getting the most out of Fall: 11/8 – 14 WRD
Unfortunately the storm clouds were metaphorically (and literally!) moving in again this week, although the actual weather was mostly quite nice -- except Friday & Saturday, maybe this evening. There were definitely some bright spots to the week, though! I'm joining Kim @ Kimrunsonthefly and Deborah @ Confessionsofamotherrunner, and enjoying the sunshine this week. Literally … Continue reading Getting the most out of Fall: 11/8 – 14 WRD
