Once a month, for a couple of days, I become a real witch. (Beer Geek would probably say that word should start with a B.) Today was one of those days. EVERYTHING annoyed me. Shoo also happened to be in rare form ( I never realized 4 year olds got PMS). For once, Jones was…

1. I still haven’t decided on a marathon. As a planner, this is driving.me.crazy. Seriously. 2. I did a nine mile run on the treadmill yesterday, while watching “In Bruges”. The movie was “meh.” The run started off rough, but ended up being awesome. I did seriously negative splits (46:12 and 42:49). Hopefully that’s my…

10 miles to go until I hit 100 for December. 11.5 until I hit 1050 for the year. I didn’t feel like changing to run today. I had no issues with not wanting to run. I just didn’t feel like making the effort to get ready. Unfortunately, I’d only run 19.8 miles this week and…

1. Merry Christmas!!! In a few short hours, we’ll be heading to church and then the boys will choose a beer and some cookies for Santa, sprinkle reindeer food on the snow, and head to bed with visions of Legos dancing in their heads. 2. This year, I participated in Morning Runner‘s holiday gift/card exchange….

So, over the course of Friday night and Saturday all day, we got 16.5 inches. It’s been years since we got a snowfall like that and people here just don’t know what to do with it. Our house sides a busy street, so we got to see lots of people doing stupid things. Take, for…

So, they are calling for 10-20 inches of snow tomorrow. This is a southern state, so that means we could be snowed in for DAYS. Seriously. When I went to the grocery store today(to buy honey and flour for baking), there were no parking spots and the lines were outrageous. Everyone was buying EGGS, BREAD,…

Today I hit 1000 miles for the year! That’s about two weeks earlier than last year and I didn’t train for and run a marathon this year. I’ve also hit 51.5 miles for December, so I’m just over halfway to my 100 miles for the month. Apparently, I haven’t been pushing myself much lately. I…

I meant to write a post this weekend, but I had very little to say. I have a feeling that what follows will be a bunch of random thoughts. In fact, maybe I should just use bullet points… Jones had his first indoor soccer game this weekend. It is a totally different game from outdoor…

I haven’t hit 100 miles in one month since January. I had planned to hit in November, but having a week where I ran a grand total of 7 miles, thanks to the flu, meant I was happy to break 80 miles. In order to accomplish 100 miles in December, I just have to average…

No, not while I’m running. We are getting FIOS today. Soon I’ll be able to read your blogs at a screamingly fast rate. Or not, ’cause I’m pretty sure it won’t make me actually read faster LOL. Not a whole lot going on here. We’ve discovered that Jones is willing to cover a lot of…

I think I may be taking the HBBC too seriously. Not as a competition with other people, but I can’t stand the idea of earning 0 points one day LOL. Yesterday I knew I wouldn’t be running and would not have time for a walk, so I figured I’d better do SOMETHING so that I…
