This weekend is Parade Day here in the Binghamton area. I have never been a big parade fan but there is also, for the first time, a mile race on Parade Day. I am going to help out with the race. Be not afraid! The woman who thinks a 5K is too short a race… Continue reading Training and Races
Have you ever looked forward to events and then had life had you not only lemons, but so many lemonade is out of the question? That’s February for me. January was the late start of my training for my mid-March race in Asheville, NC. I managed to get 51 miles in in January. February has… Continue reading A Month To Forget
I am way behind, like weeks, on the photo challenge I joined for this year and will get caught up eventually. Guilty pleasure is one of the weeks I missed and I will get up the photo of my book shelf. It’s not like there is only one in my home. I probably could wall… Continue reading Books

What did you do over the weekend? I’m sure you are wondering why I ask now as it is Tuesday. We are almost as close to the next weekend as we are from this past one. Well, I spent this morning getting ready to part with my 2-in-1 from Hewlett-Packard. I give props to their… Continue reading This and That 1 in 2015
Well, week two of a photo topic a week was not any easier for me than week one was. Topic of the week was morning. My initial thought was a sunrise but I live, in my house, in a valley. Sunrises tend to not be very good as I don’t get the sun over the… Continue reading Project 52, Week 2
