I feel like I can't catch a break. This summer will be travel, catch up, local conference, catch up and repeat. I'm happy to travel and do all kinds of fun things, but not being home or in the office much takes its toll. So a short post this week. This week I'm doing a [...]
I am keeping with the theme of simplicity this week. Just got back and have more travelling to do. The last conference Tony likes to go to because we have the place pretty much memorized. We go every year to the same venue. He also likes to get away from all of the house work. [...]
This week I am working on my running form. I have been having a nagging proximal hamstring injury that hasn't gotten any better. I figured it had something to do with my running. I just didn't know what. I don't have a running coach, so making improvements was impossible without some guidance. I know this [...]
This week we have been working on the outside of both of our houses. Trying to get things done before the weather gets too warm and stuff starts to bloom. Our current house, it looks more like a yard and less like an overgrown mess. We had some serious vegetation around the entire yard. Now [...]
You know when you have certain things in your family health history that you know will affect you some day? I knew one day that my cholesterol would no longer stay controlled. I have been lucky so far that I have been able to keep my bad cholesterol in check by diet and exercise. Well [...]
Another busy week. I spent most of it on work related stuff. Tony got a root canal. I've never seen a man so happy to do that. I understand why. He had an infection and a lot of pain. He waited too long to get it done. He was also expecting to be laid up [...]
This week I am thinking about goals. I think about goals a lot, including fitness goals. It's easy to get stagnant. I have a couple of fitness goals I am working towards: running a sub nine minute mile and lose the extra weight I gained during the menopause time. I'm pretty disciplined already. However, I [...]
I think I've made it through the jet lag. It took me about a week. I won't be doing any travelling for a few months. I am glad for that. I love to travel, but I didn't like how the vacation went. Travel woes happen. I have had many trips that didn't go as planned. [...]
Now that we are back in the swing of things, I can get back to more of my recipes. I can also look back and give you the details of how our trip went. When I said it was fun, I lied. I wrote the last post ahead of time assuming the trip was going [...]
We've been travelling a bit over the past several days, so no recipe this week. I thought it might be good to talk about recovery. This topic came about because of becoming ill after I was working towards increasing my running speed. I knew that week I was becoming ill because my run that Monday [...]
