Do you know how much convincing it took Mike to get me to see a movie today? A lot.  Poor guy, but sitting in a dark theater doesn’t sound fun to me.  I love to be outside, even in the rain.  Plus I just don’t have the attention span for it. Taking me out to [...]

It’s a gloomy, rainy day over here.  With not too much to do, we hopped in the car and took a drive to the city.  After debating on where to have lunch with a wife that can’t read a map to save her life, we ended up in Daly City.  Which  saved us about $33 [...]

Today was such a nice & easy day.  I went grocery shopping for my little elderly lady, Catherine.  I really adore her, and Julie, her dog.  She thinks I make her day, but it’s really the other way around. I’ve always enjoyed the elderly and I’m so happy to be able do something small that [...]

This weekend was sunny & in the mid 70’s.  Perfect weather to be outside. Saturday I strolled through the farmers market and then to Trader Joe’s.  And walked the dogs at the park twice.  But I really wanted to be outside enjoying the uber nice weather. I decided to ride the Bay Trail.  It’s really [...]

We have had such a mild winter here.  It blows my mind how beautiful it really is here.  Mike & I just pulled out of the driveway, headed to Burlingame when he got called into work.  Major bummer.  We were going to enjoy lunch outside at a Mediterranean restaurant, then have cupcakes and do a [...]

I have to tell you guys about my new planner!! The generic ones in the stores don’t fit my lifestyle.  Read Type A, organization nerd. Well thanks to Pinterest, I have my whole little life in one binder.  Well almost.  I found this site and purchased this PDF.  In case your curious I went with [...]

I was looking to volunteer in my new area and after reading Caitlin’s blog about coaching with GOTR, I knew it would be a good fit for me.  GOTR is a 12 week program that meets twice a week for girls in 3rd to 5th grade that helps build character, healthy habits & self-esteem with [...]

Since my injury is being a punk right now I’ve found myself consumed with what I can’t do. Being the problem solver that I am, I decide to shift my focus on things I can do. Cycling does not come naturally to me like running kinda sorta does.  Not saying running is easy by any [...]

My injury is a punk right now.  I think I pushed it too hard on that 5k on Friday.  The thing that really sucks about this type of injury at least for me, is it doesn’t hurt when I exercise.  In fact it takes hours for pain & tightness to kick in.  Usually at night [...]

A few years ago I decided to really get into running so I went to my local running store to get the right shoe for me.  They put me on a treadmill and watched me run for a bit then recommended the Mizuno Wave Rider 13. They were a perfect fit.  I loved them so [...]
