My sister recently went through a big round of canning things and lucky me I got to benefit without doing any of the work. The main thing she did was a bunch of homemade salsa. We’ve already gone through a couple jars ourselves because it is very yummy. I was searching for something to useContinue reading “New Delicious Snack”

Dear Brianna Lynne, Eleven years ago today, a day that will be forever etched into my memory. Some of the details and the timing of things have started to slip, but the feelings I felt that day will stay with me forever. I’ll be honest, you were a bit of…
Hard to Eat Right
Sometimes it’s very hard to eat right in my house. The smell of these is driving me crazy.
Week Two Summary
It is a good thing that I started out with a good week because this past week didn’t see the results I was hoping for. I still did pretty well, but if I keep having weeks like this I won’t hit my goal when I want to. My workouts and running have been on track,Continue reading “Week Two Summary”
Watery Fun Kind of Day
The plan for today was to spend a fair amount of time on or around the water. The river which we tube down had the water levels brought back up so it was open again probably for one of the last times this year. We decided we would take advantage of it and get thereContinue reading “Watery Fun Kind of Day”
Will Power
Early on when I started running I found that I must not have the strongest will power. When ever I would run a loop that either took me past my house or past my car multiple times it made it very easy for me to stop earlier than I wanted to. I learned to startContinue reading “Will Power”

This time it started to produce a squash. The main problem is that it’s way up inContinue reading “Defiant Squash”
Public Outdoor Piano
My little town has setup something pretty interesting recently. It’s been setup for at least a couple weeks now but I just noticed it personally just the other night. In the Centre Square area they’ve setup a public piano that anyone regardless of talent can come play at anytime. It’s a pretty cool concept. MaybeContinue reading “Public Outdoor Piano”
Dance Class Parent Participation
Yesterday in the morning I didn’t end up getting out for a run as I had planned. Getting out of bed wasn’t my problem this time. I actually ended up with lots of sleep because I went to be early. 5:30 am didn’t seem so bad at all. Just as I was getting ready toContinue reading “Dance Class Parent Participation”
First Sleep Over
Over the weekend Noah went to his first ever sleep over at a friends house. It’s irrational but I always get a little worried when the kids go for a sleep over, especially the first time. I was pretty sure Noah would be fine, but there’s always that chance that they are going to getContinue reading “First Sleep Over”
