I had a pity party for myself Monday. Don’t ask me why! I’m totally not sure what was up with that. Let’s say it was a culmination of things hitting all at one time. It’s over but it was here and that has me a bit concerned. First, Monday was my youngest’s birthday. He turned… Continue reading Pity Party
I’ve been slacking on my writing. I’m going to set that straight. I started Julia Cameron’s It’s Never Too Late to Begin Again at the beginning of June. This book has taken me back to writing Morning Pages. These have been particularly illuminating to me but much more on that later. Today is all about my… Continue reading Slacking
I will be spending some time next week to re-evaluate and possibly re-set some of my annual goals from January. One area – the family area – is checked off in a big way and so I need to set new goals for that area. So here I go looking at June and if it… Continue reading June In Review
Do you believe in fate? I go back and forth as in some cases, it crashes head long into my faith. Fate and faith are so close in spelling and pronunciation but not close to each other in meaning. I do, though, have a story of fate – at least in my mind. I think… Continue reading Fate, Anyone?
Culture dictates we wish people a happy birthday. What about those of us who gave birth? That day is special for us, also. 28 years ago, this ninja came into the world. It was the last day of preschool. I was almost a full two weeks overdue. The twins had already spent the week at… Continue reading Birth Day
I try, at the beginning of each month, to look at how I am doing with my annual goals. This is harder this month as this first week in May is bringing about a child getting married and culminating in my moving to North Carolina. Here I go with where I am. Fitness I am still not running a full marathon. I have not been tempted to… Continue reading Goal Review
The first quarter of 2016 is over. Can you believe that? I am not sure I am moving quickly enough towards my 2016 goals but I know I am moving. I sometimes think I am moving at a crawl. Case in point, yesterday on Facebook, my memories came up discussing a 167 mile March. That was in 2012. It was my second… Continue reading Goals in Review
As I alluded to yesterday, a post was coming about February and any and all progress I made towards my 2016 goals. While the bullseye has not yet been hit, I am making steady progress in most areas. Fitness I have managed to continue on my 12 month journey to not run any full marathons.… Continue reading February, A Look In The Rearview
Sometimes it literally feels like time is flying. The first month of 2016 is gone already. And so I have to look back and see if I am still on track with my annual goals or do I need to reassess. Fitness I am totally good on not having run any marathons in January. I… Continue reading January Gone Already
My first week in the desert flew by as my sister and I went through decorations that were our mom’s. I also spent time getting use to a borrowed bike for Tour de Palm Springs. I had some running to do to prepare for the Palm Desert Half. Those two events took up my weekend… Continue reading Vacation
