It’s definitely Monday

This is the only week they are in camp all summer.  As you might guess, I’m trying to accomplish more this week than all the other summer weeks combined.  I’m taking my car in for its annual inspection.  I’m taking the cat in for her physical and rabies shot.  And I’m scheduling my mammogram. I know, I really know how to party.  I’ve been getting mammograms since I turned 40, even though there is some controversy about how early to start.  I have a (recent) history of breast cancer in the family, and even though my very first mammogram led to an extremely stressful month, … [Read more...]

Monday Confession: I didn’t run

This weekend played out just as crazy as I expected. And I didn't make running a priority.  I could say there were lots of reasons.  I could say we were crazy busy.  I could say my kids came first this weekend. But really, I was just making excuses I could have run right after Shoo's field trip.  It's not like I've never picked him up from school sweaty before. I could have run after I picked him up from school.  Beer Geek was home, as was Jones, not to mention I have a treadmill. I could have run after Shoo's soccer game (we won't even pretend I'd consider running before a morning game). I could have run before the kids arrived for Jones' party. Heck, I could have run during the party - Beer Geek was here and the … [Read more...]

Kicking Off 2021 with a Big Ole Cup of Coffee

Kicking Off 2021 with a Big Ole Cup of Coffee

I’m not one to stay up super late on NYE, but ironically, last night I was up late thanks to insomnia. Thank you 2020 for one last kick in the teeth. So, I’m up a bit later than normal and sucking down caffeine like it’s my job. Seems appropriate to hook up with Deb and […]
