That’s me winning! Just kidding. I haven’t actually started packing just sort of setting things aside so I don’t forget them. I’ve decided to check a bag which makes packing somewhat more complicated. I will still put my gear for both races in my carry on – can’t risk the airline loosing my sparkle skirt […]
Isn’t all This Run Disney Princess Stuff Kind of Silly?
By any accounts, I have what one might call a “serious” profession. I have many friends who are in my same line of work who have “serious” blogs. I could name drop but I won’t;). I respect them, I love their work, and I read their blogs because they challenge me and help me as […]
A Few Thoughts On Longevity in Marriage on our 24th Wedding Anniversary
Today is our 24th wedding anniversary. 2/10/90 I was 19. He was 23. What were we thinking? Twenty. Four.Years. It’s a long time. A lifetime for some of you reading this, in fact. And in that time I’ve learned A LOT. Here’s a partial list, and yes it’s bugging me that there are only 6 […]

Today’s 10 miler was tough. Really really tough. This is not me. I pulled this off the internet. Thank you internet. I can blame a whole lot of things. Having the flu a week ago and missing 8 days of training is the main culprit. But I know many of us are having serious, how […]

About That Time I got The Best Compliment EVER From Someone On My Team
I just finished the Herculean task of completing year end check ins with my team. I have a love/hate relationship with this process. I love that I get to check in with each member of my team and make sure I really know where they are emotionally, spritually and in their work. I love that […]
I’m Not A Good Patient
So yesterday I felt great. Actually really great. I even said to my son on the way home from school “I feel really good! Do you ever just feel really good?” I believe in writing we refer to that as foreshadowing . . . I will spare you the details, but my evening progressed strangely […]
a This and That Post
I’ve decided from time to time to post just quick updates and musings from my ridiculous life and all it’s different aspects and excitement. And it’s Tuesday so maybe we’ll always do that on Tuesday. Or maybe not. I don’t like being fenced in. So yeah, here’s the first and maybe last installment of Running […]
