A couple weeks ago my nine year old daughter sort of limps up to me. She takes her right leg and moves it back and forth and says, “when I do this it hurts my leg”. She then proceeds to do something very similar with her left leg but moving it in a different fashion,Continue reading “It’s Rough Getting Old”

Rabbit Stew Anyone?
I’m one of those guys who has a once typical Monday to Friday 9:00 – 5:00 job, so I look forward to the weekends. With four kids we usually keep pretty busy but it’s usually doing something fun with the family which is always nice, but weekends are also the time to get nagging choresContinue reading “Rabbit Stew Anyone?”
Social Running
Running for me has been a solo thing to do since I started. It’s great I don’t have to depend on anyone I can just go. Put in some headphones and run. I can go at what ever pace I want, I don’t have to worry about holding anyone up or slowing myself down toContinue reading “Social Running”
New Pajamas

New Belt
Not too long ago I broke down and bought a new belt. I really didn’t want to. I’d had that belt for many years and I wanted to keep it as a reminder of how far I’ve come. It got a little ridiculous though having a huge amount of belt sticking out and flapping around.Continue reading “New Belt”
