Hello, here is a quick recap of the weekend. My long run was not good yesterday. I was scheduled to do 14 miles and ended up doing 11 bad ones. I slept in after staying up late (for me anyways) and got a late start. By the time I started running it was close to 9am and pretty hot, which I was not ... Read More about Bad Long Run…Grams' B-day

Halloween Dress Up
Yes, I am one of those people who dresses up their dogs. This year they were a nurse and a doctor. Actually I didn't put any effort into this at all. These are little kid costumes I happened to come across at the 99 Cent Store. They don't actually fit them well because the costumes are for little ... Read More about Halloween Dress Up

I didn't have any other excuse to make it, but once I saw instructions for how to make a pumpkin cake I had to ... Read More about Happy Halloween!

It's time for something new!
I have to try something new. I have gained 10 pounds in the last year and cannot seem to lose any weight (not that I am making a real effort). So I am breaking down this problem and finding a solution like a reasonable person instead of beating myself up internally until I feel like shit (like I ...

Sounded like a great idea…
...at the time.Long story short: My BFF and I went out dancing/drinking on Saturday night. On the way home we decided to stop at Denny's because we were hungry. There was a 15 minute wait and we were like, "Forget that, we're hungry now". So we drove through Jack in the Box. Here is my BFF showing ... Read More about Sounded like a great idea…
